Sunderland Vs City Post match Discussion Thread

Yaya is not a captain. Vinny, Zaba then next most intense player (Richards,Kolarov...)
Pellegrini got it wrong with team selection today. Negredo should have stayed on as we were chasing the result, put Dzeko in for one of the defenders, especially with Navas crossing.
Our squad is not as deep as we think. Drop off in class with our bench is dramatic.

Don't be ridiculous.

Not having a pop at the lad or trying to be clever but, has Nasri had a good game away from home since Spurs 2011?

Genuine question.

Has Pellegrini?

Played well at Chelsea? Nasri that is not MP!

Lost again for the 4th season on the bounce.

Shit defending (again) + an inability to score.
For all the good attacking play at home, Pellegrini's defensive tactics are just so fucking shit it's untrue.
Negredo AND Aguero had mares today as well.

We also learn't today that Nasri still cannot step up to the plate even under a touchy feely boss.

4 defeats now before Christmas.
The title IS probably gone if we lose another 2 and definitely gone if we lose another 3.

Nope its probably gone now.....Pellergrini needs to understand that this is not La liga and that EVERY match is a Cup fnal........

One word overconfidence, the players didnt turn up today, they thought is going to be walk in the park and that the results we got!

Nasri has been arguably our most consistently good player this season.

I think that's the first time I've agreed with you!

Ah game of opinions and all that.

So frustrating, they gave us enough time to score and we still couldn't manage it, keepers got to do better for their goal IMO

Absolute joke

 

[brummie blue]

We missed Silva's creativity and Fernandinho's drive. Garcia is a God awful replacement, he's just too slow and too ineffectual. We had loads of possession but didn't really test Mannone, Aguero and Negredo had off games.

Having said all that it would have been a totally different game if Mike Dean had sent Larsson off, which he clearly should have done. Down to 10 men, with 70 minutes left, and the score 0-0, I can't see us not winning then. To add insult to injury Dean then allows Bardsley to push Milner over, a definite foul, before running on to score. 2 huge decisions, 2 awful mistakes from the ref.

Excellent post, disappointed but not the end of the world

 

[Plaything of the gods]

Wow. City 24 shots, 4 on target. Sunderland 5 and 2.

Target practice tomorrow, all day.
