• Midfielder filmed saying too many at Championship club don’t care • Lamine Koné, Jeremain Lens and Wahbi Khazri appear to be mentionedThe Sunderland midfielder Darron Gibson has claimed his team are “fucking shit” and has accused a number of his team‑mates of lacking commitment to the club. Gibson was filmed on Saturday evening, after Sunderland’s 5-0 friendly defeat at home against Celtic, in conversation with a group of supporters. “We’re fucking shit,” he said, before being asked whether that bothered him. Gibson responded, “Right, there’s one,” when the name of Koné was put to him; when Lens and Khazri were mentioned he responded “Next one” on both occasions. Sunderland did not comment on the video although Grayson is expected to address Gibson’s remarks this week, before Friday’s Championship opener against Derby County.
