Tiote's face wobbled like a jelly when he took that elbow to the face lads. It was clearly forceful and he's lucky it's not broken. Bardsley's dive was the biggest disappointment of the game for me and that's me speaking as an Englishman.
piss take - you cant ****ing take it that you couldn't beat 10 men and now some of you need to blame to ref.
We should of won, 22 shots to their 7, still it was a much better Sunderland team than we have faced for a while. Good luck to them but we should of buried them second half
Any stoppage time equalizer against your rivals is worthy of a gloat. I remember you lot last year at the SOL. Like I said it'll hurt now but give it a week and you'll realize your team performed admirably.
It's not easy to break down 10 men behind the ball. The ref spoilt the game for me. 11 or 12 yellows 2 reds and 2 pens speaks for itself.
Ben Arfa motm for me. Absolute game changer, Sunderland will point to Sess red card but the game turned the instant Ben Arfa came on at half time. Richardson turned inside out. McClean edged his battle with Simmo, Jonas looked knackered, a miracle Tiote and Lee stayed on the pitch with their battle. Colo had Sess' number today. Williamson , Turner probably a hero on Wearside for the last ditch tackle. Garder probably the mackems most frightening player every time he got the ball, looked good with it. Cabaye good in glimpses, Ba played wel but one of those games where the ball wouldn't hit the net for him, Cisse anonymous, Bendter pretty anonymous apart from pen Raylor only started playing when moved to LB anything i missed
im gutted a win whould have got rid of this fear around this game from our players... what we need is next season to have the first game at our place again.... anyway next up liverpool at home then everton away
