Former Sunderland striker Marco Gabbiadini believes recent criticism of Black Cats keeper Anthony Patterson isn't warranted.

Patterson was at fault for Pascal Struijk's late winner in the defeat by Leeds United, before his own goal against Hull City.

Is he a weak link that needs to be addressed?

Or, as Gabbiadini has suggested, is he the scapegoat for a lack of aerial presence in the squad?

Let us know your thoughts here.
