SunderlandTwo shots and five crosses in loss
Hume recorded two shots (zero on goal), five crosses (zero accurate) and three corners in Saturday's 1-0 defeat to Brighton.
Analysis: Hume attempted five crosses and took two shots as his side lost 1-0 to Brighton. The versatile defender has only provided one assist this season, but has been a key part of how strong Sunderland started the season. The five crosses he has attempted were his most in the last four games, and he has been unable to complete a cross in any of these four games. With three corners in this game, he has continued his run as Sunderland's third highest set-piece taker of the year.
Leader in multiple stats
Hume took two off target shots, crossed twice inaccurately, blocked a shot and made an interception during Sunday's 3-1 loss to Fulham.
Analysis: Hume was active on both sides of the ball leading Sunderland in shots, blocks and interceptions during the defeat. The fullback has combined for five shots, a chance created and nine crosses over his last three starts but hasn't had a goal involvement since October.
Three shots in loss
Hume registered three shots (zero on goal), three crosses (one accurate) and one corner in Wednesday's 1-0 loss against Liverpool.
Analysis: Hume was desperate for his first Premier League goal Wednesday, he peppered the Liverpool backline with shots, but he couldn't do much. In the end none of his shots were on goal and his one corner came up lacking. Hume will continue to search for that first Premier League goal in some easier matches moving forward.
Goalline clearance saves a point
Hume had one cross (zero accurate) and one tackle in Sunday's 1-1 draw versus Leeds United. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 61st minute.
Analysis: Hume made a crucial goalline clearance from a Brenden Aaronson chance, which ultimately helped Sunderland secure a point against their fellow promoted side, Leeds. This clearance was one of five in the match, his fourth time hitting at least this amount this season. He did, however, concede three fouls, which led to his fourth yellow card of the season. He is one more away from a one-game suspension.
Records assist in role change
Hume assisted once to go with two shots (zero on goal), four crosses (two accurate) and one chance created in Saturday's 2-0 win versus Wolverhampton.
Analysis: Hume played as a left back for the first time this season after starting all his previous matches at right back. He recorded his first assist and attacking contribution in eight starts and registered a season-high two shots, with one hitting the post. However, it was also the first time he failed to make an interception this season.
Attempts four crosses in loss
Hume had one shot (zero on goal), four crosses (zero accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 2-0 loss to Burnley.
Analysis: Hume matched a team-high Saturday with four attempted crosses (zero accurate) and created one chance as Sunderland were overrun by Burnley in a 2-0 away defeat. In addition to his impact upon the attacking play, the full-back tracked back to add two tackles (two won) and one interception to the team's defensive effort. Hume has played the full 90 minutes in each of Sunderland's first two league fixtures, managing to create two chances and attempt 10 crosses (one accurate) across the 180 minutes of play.
