League position: 19th All three of Sunderland's current goalkeepers (Costel Pantilimon, Vito Mannone and Jordan Pickford) had now conceded four goals in their first Premier League appearance of 2015-16. The Black Cats failed in their attempt to begin a New Year with three consecutive wins in a top division season for the first time since 1950.
