Burnley manager Scott Parker was in despondent move after a heavy defeat at Sunderland made it 15 Premier League games without a win.
The Clarets did not have a shot on target for the fourth time this season and are now 11 points adrift of safety.
Burnley have conceded six goals in the opening 10 minutes of Premier League games this season, more than any other side, and Parker was livid with their limp display.
He said: “We came to a tough place tonight, which we knew and we didn’t really give ourselves a chance. The ingredients you need coming here, the real basics of the game, we fell way short.
“It surprised me. Tonight we were way short.
“I didn’t see this performance coming, certainly where we’ve come from in terms of performances and the results we picked up. We were way, way short of ever being competitive in this division.
“I don’t care who you play, if you’re going to fall down where we fell short in terms of a lack of intent in everything we did at times – It looked passive at every phase. For that, you get dealt with.”
Sunderland remain unbeaten at the Stadium of Light in the Premier League this season (P12 W7 D5), making it the longest home unbeaten start to a top-flight campaign by a newly promoted side since Nottingham Forest went the entire 1977-78 campaign without defeat on home soil (P21 W15 D6).
The Black Cats are within striking distance of European football but manager Regis Le Bris is more concerned about securing safety.
Victory took them to 36 points.
“We set the target earlier around 40 points,” he said.
“It might be the case this season, maybe more, we don’t know. We are in progress. We’ll see as soon as possible to reach this target. If it’s possible we’ll set another one.”
