Le Bris 'to see' whether Isidor remains on penalties

Sunderland's players have had "many discussions" about what happened in the final 10 minutes of last Friday's goalless draw at Burnley, with boss Regis Le Bris yet to confirm whether Wilson Isidor will remain their designated penalty taker.

Isidor had two penalties saved by Clarets goalkeeper James Trafford in the closing stages of the game at Turf Moor, denying the Black Cats what would have been an impressive three points.

"Now it is less emotional - it is best to avoid strong discussion just after as obviously we were disappointed after the game," Le Bris told BBC Radio Newcastle.

"We made five big chances and two penalties so we were disappointed and it wasn't the best moment to analyse and discuss the situation."

Questions were raised in the immediate aftermath over whether the 24-year-old, who is Sunderland's top scorer with eight goals, should have taken the second spot-kick, with Le Bris stating the team on the pitch made the call.

"The players had many discussions and it's part of the learning process and I'm sure we will learn from it even if it was difficult," Le Bris added.

"At the end, it's easier to say it probably wasn't the best decision but they made one together and I have to respect that - the way we want to build the team is to give them responsibility on the pitch and so far that hasn't been too bad."

Victory on Friday would have left the Black Cats just two points behind second placed Sheffield United ahead of Tuesday night's game at Derby and Le Bris has not said explicitly whether Isidor will take the team's next penalty.

"We'll see - (James) Trafford was good and expected that shot so Wilson now probably has to find different locations for his shots and it will be a useful experience for sure," he added.
