Sunderland lost to managerless Chelsea on Saturday afternoon, going down to the champions by three goals to one.

Oscar made it three from the penalty spot shortly after the break following a rash challenge from the poor Costel Pantilimon. Fabio Borini scored his first goal of the season and his first in his second spell in red and white but it was not enough.
Here is how the Sunderland players rated against the champions on Saturday:
