- A manager who wields complete control and is allowed to decide his own destiny
- An owner who seems to lack ambition, happy to go backwards rather than looking to puh on
- A fanbase rapidly turning on the club and the players, yet being ignored by those at the top
- One of the most expensive clubs to support in the division, with fans forking out to pay through the nose for relatively substandard fare
Admittedly Arsenal do tend to play better football than us but, watching them tonight, I'm even starting to doubt that! |  |

So we're just one appointment away from some Champions League manager or other, and being able to spend the £100 million we get from selling our very own equivalents of Ozil and Sanchez.
Oh goody! | |

We're an equivalent. We're one appointment away from a League One manager and being able to spend £1.50 after selling Bart for £5m and McGoldrick for £3m. | |

And then remaining in League One for six years like Sheffield United although I'd hope we could turn around in a season just as other bigger clubs tend to at that level but there is no guarantee
Frankly we should be competitive at this level, even if we are shooting for 6th place
Much as Arsenal shoot for 4th in the Premiership |  |

In all seriouness, Sunderland have never allowed their managers to be in control of their own destiny. | |

If we were the Arsenal of the Championship we would be pushing for a play-of place based on where they are in the Prem. |  |

Decides whether he wants to stay or go, rather than the board saying enough is enough due to recent performances / fan unrest. | |

You could argue last season we were still, although truthfully we were always a bit off the pace. The final finish was a little flattering. It made it look closer than it was, am I right in thinking MM favoured Gerkin early on and persisted with him for far too long, once Bart was back he seemed to be man of the match on virtually every occasion? | |

As far as I can recall, but I am an infrequent matchgoer so it was difficult to know if Mick was in the wrong. Once Bart was established as the best choice of keeper the focus for abuse in the 2015/16 season moved on to Knudsen. | |

More like Aston Villa.
In the same league for decades, not won anything since the dark ages - soon to be relegated from that league never to return. |  |

We are the Everton of the Championship if you're going by the last 15 years. |  |
