Sunderland manager Jack Ross has suggested to The Chronicle that his team are struggling physically in some matches.

Ross has also admitted that there are individual mistakes happening at Sunderland.

The Sunderland boss made the comments following his side’s 1-1 draw with Fleetwood Town at the Stadium of Light in League One this past weekend.

Ross told The Chronicle: “In some games it has been a physicality issue. There are also games where it is individual mistakes. As a manager you can’t always legislate for that.”

Improving

Sunderland’s recent results and performances have not been great, with the Black Cats failing to win against Oxford United and Fleetwood in League One this month.

Ross’s side are conceding far too many goals than they should at the moment, and the Black Cats need to tighten at the back.

Sunderland will be back in action on Saturday afternoon when they take on Burton Albion away from home in League One.

With Burton struggling at the moment, the Black Cats should feel confident about picking up all three points from the encounter at the Pirelli Stadium.

Sunderland are fourth in the League One table at the moment with 15 points from seven matches, four points behind leaders Peterborough United.
