Sunderland weigh changes before Leeds test
Analysis of Sunderland's slump argues that poor recruitment, costly errors and some of Régis Le Bris' decisions have all hurt them, though the case is also made for sticking with him.
Sunderland could bring Brian Brobbey back in against Leeds, but Dan Ballard is out injured and Kevin Danso is suspended. Régis Le Bris may turn to Nordi Mukiele, Luke O'Nien, Omar Alderete and Reinildo in defence.
Régis Le Bris urged Sunderland to stay resilient before facing Leeds, insisting "anything is possible in football" despite four straight defeats and a poor start to the Premier League season.
Sunderland's poor start is framed as fixable, with injuries and errors proving costly. Brian Brobbey's return could help, with Dan Ballard to follow soon after, but tactics, Omar Alderete's form and the wing issues need sorting.
