Sunderland player who made only three passes against Southampton might be benched.
Sunderland faces a seventh consecutive defeat in the Championship tonight, and Queens Park Rangers’ victory might lead to an unexpected relegation struggle.
Mike Dodds must carefully choose his Black Cats lineup to encourage them to a rare victory and put an end to the losing streak.
As interim manager, Dodds has been brave to play 16-year-old Chris Rigg, but the promising youth may be benched at QPR after failing to ignite away at Southampton.
Chris Rigg’s performance vs Southampton in numbers
Rigg has benefited from his 37-year-old boss’s daring selection decisions, appearing in all four games since Dodds took over as interim manager.
However, the 16-year-old’s performance in the club’s 4-2 loss from the start may mean that the lively number 31 will just make up the numbers on the bench against QPR rather than starting.
