Goal! Le Bris scores calmly past a defender, securing vital win!
Former Sunderland striker Marco Gabbiadini says the Black Cats' lack of squad depth is limiting Regis Le Bris' power to change games. After Yakuba Minteh gave Brighton a second-half lead on Saturday, Sunderland could not find an equaliser and lost their third successive game at the Stadium of Light. Gabbiadini told BBC Radio Newcastle : "We're lacking the final ball at the moment.
Our attacking options are so limited. "It's hard for the manager. You're looking at the bench, you're looking for inspiration from the people sat behind you.
"We've got four young lads on there who've not played a Premier League minute. "We've got massive injury issues, a small squad, and so many key players missing that it had an effect. "In isolation, you'd say it wasn't too bad - there's stuff to build on, positive performance.
But when it's your third defeat at home on the bounce, you're going to look at it in a different light. " Press play to hear Gabbiadini's full reaction to defeat by Brighton or listen on BBC Sounds
