Strong side from us - should be more than enough to beat Sunderland

Only seeing the highlights from the youth Cup game now. That pitch is disgraceful.

That Sunderland kit is an eyesore.

Emeran scores a beauty. 1-0 United.

I wonder how we are only 1-0 up. If we had been a bit more efficient we could have had 3-4 easily. McNeill, Hoogewerf and Emeran all missed huge chances. I do like the Sunderland captain Jonathan Krakue - he has saved his teammates on numerous occations.

We are playing two or three levels above Sunderland. Can see why they are at the bottom of the league - we have to win this game by a few.

We're playing really well. Honestly this Sunderland side isn't as bad as some of their other teams.

This Sunderland-side isn't as bad as it was last year :)
Think I heard the commentator say earlier that they lost every single game last season :lol: doesn't help when big clubs (including us) pick them clean every summer, but hey, it's a dog eat dog world!

Would be interesting to see how many of his shots end up in the back of the net - it's a high number

I didn't think that even went in, when he gets in the box he's honestly ridiculous.

Though the keeper should be saving that, McNeill just always looks dangerous wherever he is positioned...

Garnacho scores. 3-0 United. Emeran switching to the right has absolutely ruined that LBs day, he's torn him to pieces.

Offside but a tidy finish by McNeill nonetheless.

Ryan Gooch? God that's an unfortunate name.

4-0 United, Hoogewerf after the keeper makes a superb stop against McNeill from close range.

He got his goal! Think Hoogewerf is one of the most promising talents. Also, love the look of Emeran today.

Emeran has been incredible this game, another peach, 5-0.

Emeran doesn't always need to be trying to get on his left foot. He just put in a great cross with his right which led to Hoogewerf's goal.
Yeah - the cross was perfect - right pace and timing.

And just like that he scores again - some game!

This a bloodbath, 6-0 with 25 minutes left to play. Sunderland have collapsed this half, we look like we're going to score every time we go forward.

Great goal for Emeran to make it 5-0. A couple of minutes later McNeil hits the post and Garnacho is first to it and scores.
