Jamie McAllister has looked ahead to Sunderland's last away game of 2021...
SAME EVERY YEAR
"It’s the same every Christmas for us - there’s a lot of games coming up in a short space of time and a lot of points to play."
FOCUS
“We just have to look forward to each game and make sure our recovery is right in between. We just have to focus on ourselves, but we do think they will have a new manager in place before we play them."
GOOD RUN
“We’re on a very good run at the moment and are unbeaten in seven in the league – obviously we had the cup game on Tuesday which was a great game for us, but we were disappointed to lose."
DONNY
“It’s all onto Doncaster now and back to the league, which is our main focus. It’s cliché, but we have to take it game-by-game – the next three points are always the most important."
BRAODHEAD INJURY
"It’s obviously a disappointment to lose Nathan, but there’s an opportunity for someone to step in and produce. Aiden O’Brien has been very effective in the cup competitions this season and in the minutes he’s played in the league. He trains well everyday, he’s a top professional and he has goals in him, which is what we need to replace Nathan."
