Two Sunderland players now rank inside the Championship’s top 10 for one statistic

For this one intriguing statistic, two Sunderland players are now ranked among the top 10 in the Championship.

At the moment, Sunderland is positioned in the Championship’s midtable.

They’ve had a difficult season, so maybe a 12th-place result is a reasonable reflection of their performance.

Though Sunderland would be happy with their 12th place finish, with just nine points separating them and the relegation zone, Mike Dodds’ team has now lost six straight games.

However, there have been some encouraging developments this season, like Jack Clarke’s development, who has scored 15 goals in the Championship and grown into an extremely important asset, and perhaps the rise of Jobe Bellingham, who has played in more games than he may have thought.

And for one statistic, the two are now among the top 10 in the Championship.
