Match Day Thread Manchester City FC v Sunderland AFC - Saturday 6th December 2025 - KO 15:00

15 games into his career with SAFC and I can’t imagine him not being here already, he’s absolute quality.

 

VAR shouldn't exist, but here we are.

If the club are confident, they will appeal against it. Can't see that happening myself.

 

We were dead on our feet. No one to blame for any part of the game, just to many games against top opposition

 

I got told this was a free hit yet usual suspects whinging

 

Beaten by comfortably the best team we’ve faced this season… no panic, no need for over analyzing it’s simply one of those days… we move on

 

Away to Liverpool on Wed and City today was as hard as it gets for any team in europe in such a short space of time. We came away with 1 point we'll dust ourselves off and move on.
I hope the lads get the next 2 days off now to relax and report back Tuesday morning to prepare for what will be a massive week

 

Well Pep reckons it’s the best they’ve played this season, therefore I’ll **** off moaningabout the first half.

 

Agree with this. Wilson is great, I personally prefer him off the bench though, ultimately I think Mayenda is more effective and a better striker overall.

 

City are superb. Wouldn’t be surprised if O’Nien never played another game for us, horrible challenge

 

I thought the gameplan was spot on early doors, they weren't creating much against us, then the deflected goal goes in and moments of individual quality got the other goals. On another day Wilson and Granit score and its game on. We had a cracking move second half which let to a cross to Brobbey but the defender put it out for a corner. It was some lovely football. Rest up and we go again

 

Sadly I think Luke is half a yard too slow for this league… it was an awful challenge but no worse than the tackle on Nordi

 

Just seen o9 sending off
Yeah that’s correct
However there’s was just the same
Both for me

 

Yeah true

 

He hasn't played since May ffs

 

Yep

 

So did you see the challenge from your view at the match or was someone in the way?

 

I mean to be fair it’s the only game in my opinion that we’ve been thoroughly outplayed in and that’s just me. Not bad for a team expected to be below where Wolves are now.

 

Di you think the same about the city challenge first half?

 

There must've been someone blocking his view in the stand

 

Clearly mate.

A red card and the comment "should never play for us again"

Anyone would think that was a pre determined mind set
