Official Sunderland v Man City Thread

[MadchesterCity]

oh well you'v got to laugh. 1-0

we should be winning these games..

no you dont

On the bench with Balotelli?

There's a lot more to come from the existing squad, and I think we have had enough change

 

[Sabster]

We have the most negative 3 man midfield possible.

Why oh why we couln't have gone Yaya, Barry, Milner or Milner, Yaya, Silva is beyond me.

And don't tell we would have been dominated in midifield. Either of those 3 can keep the ball brilliantly.

Yet at half time we had played really well, and the only thing missing was Tevez's goal.

You are missing the obvious point - you punish teams when you are on top, and that's what we failed to do. If we'd have scored in the 1st half, the 2nd would have been a different story

But we were still nowhere near incisive enough against them. De Jong was useless. I hope the next home game we see Yaya, Milner, Silva. That would be sick

WHO STILL THINS WE DON'T NEED DZEKO?

Me.
We've just signed balotelli. give the guy a chance to play. Some of you have got spoilt with all that money. You think one bad performance and players need replacing. Relax. It'll come good. It takes time.

WHO STILL THINS WE DON'T NEED DZEKO?

We have Adebayor who is a brilliant striker.

Todays embarrassement shows the folly of not meeting Dzeko's buyout clause.

You'll all laugh at me but Zamora would be ideal for this side.
I just know i'm going to regret this post lol

I must admit we look like we need an out and out centre forward, then let Tevez play at the head of the diamond if he wants to play that way. But we deffo need someone who will run in behind defences.

He played Balotelli from the left when he came on so who knows his plans for him.

 

[super_city_si]

If we want the premiership title or to finish in the top four we have to beat teams like this. We went to a team who have not beaten us in 70 years and lose due to a stupid challenge in the 93rd minute. Micah, I hope Mancini gives you a right bollocking for that. You cost the team dear today.

Conversely we lost because Tevez couldnt score an open goal form 12 yards. Micah is a tit but this isnt totally down to him.

has some sense that mate....although Dzeko [sp?] would be better.....Mancini was asked after the game about transfers before DL day and he said we'll wait and see.....I am thinking we may get another last minute present......spoilt basta**s aren't we!
