Haway The Podcast | REACTION | Arsenal 3-0 SAFC | Lads Did Themselves Proud!

London – Sunderland’s players left the Emirates with heads held high on Saturday evening after a 3-0 defeat to Arsenal that, according to the latest episode of Haway The Podcast, felt “very different” to the recent away reverses at West Ham and Brentford. Hosts Gav, Jonny and Andrew went live on the final whistle to dissect a contest in which the Black Cats “fought for everything” but were ultimately punished for a handful of small errors.

While the concession of another three goals on the road will concern the coaching staff, the panel agreed the scoreline “probably flattered” Mikel Arteta’s side and praised the visitors for a performance that carried spirit and structure throughout the 90 minutes. The discussion explores why the emotional response to this loss contrasts sharply with the frustration that followed the club’s previous away defeats, and what that shift might signal for the remainder of the campaign.
