Sunderland crashed to yet another defeat this weekend.
Sunderland’s terrible start to the season continued as they lost 2-0 away to Stoke City on Saturday.
Two goals from a resurgent Joe Allen were enough to see off the Black Cats, who remain firmly rooted to the bottom of the Premier League table with just two points from their first eight matches.
Already four points away from safety and showing little sign of an upturn in form, it looks like being another tough campaign for Sunderland, with the pressure mounting on Moyes to get points on the board and repair a managerial reputation that is coming apart at the seams.
Summer signing Paddy McNair started the match in midfield but the former Manchester United defender did not have the best of games, unable to replicate his two-goal haul against Queens Park Rangers in the EFL Cup prior to the international break.
The Northern Ireland international came off just 10 minutes into the second half, replaced by another recent addition in the form of Steven Pienaar.
