Aye Aye Yippee Sun Jihai...

Really good moment when he came on the pitch. I was grinning ear to ear. It was a bit disappointing that the weather was so bad but his speech was great.

All the best Sun!

Honestly thought Sun brought the best out in SWP... His overlapping runs created loads of space for SWP to exploit.... The flip side was his defensive frailties (spurs away anyone)

What did he say? Couldn't make it for the game tonight.

What did he say? Couldn't make it for the game tonight.

He said something like:

"It's great to be back here, the fans are the same, the stadium is the same, it's just the players and league position that's different!"

"I hope you haven't forgotten me, because i certainly haven't forgotten you."

"I'm playing in China, but we all knew you scored 6! (v Rags)"

"Manchester City is the best club in the country."

Not the best of players but never moaned, played anywhere he was asked to and always gave 100%. A good pro who unfortunately wasn't a very good player but during his time he wasn't the worst player on the side.

You could say he was a poor footballing version of Zabba, or that Zabba is a good footballing version of Sun - both are meant as compliments, in a backhanded way.

As an aside, he was class on FM for years, I always used to sign him (or keep him for ages when playing as City) :-)

"Singing Aye Aye Ippy, his dad's got a chippy..."

I remember that one. But I also seem to remember that he liked it too, although I also read that he didn't so I don't know what to believe.

Great to see him last night,like a lot of players that have been and gone,it's clear we have a place in his heart.

I remember him mouthing " I don't believe it" ( gonna be pc and not do a Chinese impersonation) after Macken got the 4th at Spurs. Love the Sun!

Quality. Not the best of players but a brilliant professional all the same who always gave 100% no matter what.
