Sunderland boss Gus Poyet was upset with their performance for the 0-0 draw at Burnley.
Poyet called for better from his team after their goalless draw at Burnley, warning "okay" was not good enough in the Barclays Premier League.
"The clean sheet I can take from today, nothing else," he said.
"I was expecting a little bit more. With all respect to Burnley, our players play at the highest level, they cost a lot of money. These are the games they need to stand up in - as a team and as individuals.
"I said to them before coming here, 'we're playing okay'.
"But okay is not good enough in the Barclays Premier League. You need to be better than okay.
"Here we defended okay, we passed the ball okay but we need to be better than that."
Asked what a season of such football would bring, Poyet added: "One point a game, 38 points maybe.
"You cannot just be okay. You are going to get punished.
"I think if we had been a little bit better this was a great opportunity for three points and we missed it."
