Chances/shots from inside the box from open play - 0.
Sunderland attempts: 15, on target - 6.
City attempts: 5, on target - 2.

This from a home team against a side who have won 1 point in their last 7 games.

Total shite.
Could have played for a week and not troubled the goal. This is a new low. The players might not be good enough, but they presumably aren't the ones who have come out with a game plan that involves leaving 6 or 7 players in our half at all times against an u23 team that have one point in 7 games. And the joke is even with that, we've been cut open with ease the entire game as well.

About as puzzling to try to understand what the tactics were designed to do well as I've seen. Don't think getting rid of Bulut solves anything but equally, how can you want him to stay based on this.
