I have been watching this boy Borini closely over the last 3 months and he is an excellent young player. And by the way he is a Liverpool player, this loan spell will do him the world of good. Sunderland are working hard from back to front and break with purpose and speed. I wouldn't be surprised if the catch City on the break again!Originally posted by Karl View Post -

MCI has too much fire power to write off easily. Sunderland has a mountain to climb!Peter R

ManCity has that fire power. That's fact..but Sunderland also assisted. The Sunderland players fell into the trap that so often infects inferior teams - They lead a superior team and the longer they have the lead become expansive as they the illusion of being on par with the superior team sets in.
Sunderland players came out trusting their technical skills too much and let down on physical work - closing down and vigor running about dropped many notches. The result Toure and Nasri had acres of space to showcase their exception skills. Skills the Sunderland players can only dream of."Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has."Comment

This tie is far from over, there is at least one more goal in it.Originally posted by Peter R View PostComment

It is over unless Sunderland can step up and return to its first half input on energy - tracking back to support on defense, closing down swiftly...and a recognition that they have players far inferior to ManCity (return to the humility with which they started the game) and therefore return to TEAM counter-attacks.Originally posted by Dunny View Post"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world.

Sunderland got chances to make it interesting...but the lower pace was comfortable to defend against and made going forward against fairly easy (nuff space in which to run) for that ManCity set of speedsters.
Still Sunderland can hold 'head high'...many before the tie (self included) thought it could have been/there was a danger of it being a 'wipe out'. Sunderland made it an interesting contest. Good show by Gus and his TEAM...hopefully they shall stay up and present improved TEAM next season."Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world.
