Match Thread Sunderland 1-1 Everton - Monday 3rd November 2025

[Gilbert..]

Such a weird game that. Total domination for about 35 minutes. Should have buried the game.
And then like a light switch it swang to them attacking and we basically switched off from controlling the game to nothing.

 

[Dwight K Schrute]

Goodness me this MNF assessment of their goal is damning on Tarky. He's so effin deep

That's not just on Tarkowski. That is a Moyes trait. The amount of goals we have conceded from distance late on from camping on our 6 yard line should tell you that.

There was another game earlier this season where he made a suicide pass from an attacking position and the other team was able to run up and score.

And there were games when he scored for us too...

First 15 mins you were the best team we have played so far this season, at that point I thought you were going win by three or more. We were poor at that point but we started to win more ball in the middle and after that Xhaka took control and you seemed to run out of ideas going forward. Patto only had one save to make other than the good, but what a save.

Good luck for the rest of your season.

Your fans were very good in the Bradley applause

We took Bradley to our hearts and also look at him as part of us.

Centre of the park non existent after 30 mind, we need fight, energy and players that can control the tempo and manage a game and we had none of that. We were so open in the middle of the pitch, we're lucky sunderland didnt have more quality up front otherwise that could have been disaster.

Kdh and garner offered absolutely zilch tonight.

You should have won

It was like watching prime Brazil second half

Xhaka was Dunga personified

Gana needs to be managed more, he's started to flag big time, he was never good on the ball but is getting worse....afcon coming up too, need to start getting replacements in now, rohl? Garner has not looked out of place at RB, drop KDH deeper, try a few things Davies, there are alternatives there

[Melchizedek]

One thing that should be mentioned is that the officials were quite good tonight which is so rare.Though they were very fair and didn't give out soft fouls all over the place. They let the players play and the decisions on cards were pretty spot on.

 

[Obes]

The midfield three (Grealish and Ndiaye pick themselves in the wide areas) needs changing. Rohl or Iroegbunam should be replacing Gana or playing next to him. James Garner would probably go play RB, for me, too.

Toss up between Alcaraz and KDH in the more advanced role.

 

[Evermaarton]

Were you not frustrated when Barry missed? I was. The McNeil sub I get because it was earlier than Moyes had likely planned to make a change and away from home, with Sunderland on the offensive, I get why he didn’t bring Dibling on.

I dont understand this sub at all. Why bring on a player with no pace when all you are doing is playing long balls in the hope of a counterattack?

 

[banno]

Goodness me this MNF assessment of their goal is damning on Tarky. He's so effin deep

We always try and defend the goal rather than a player. Look at the Haaland goal as one of many examples. It is a natural instinct rather than a thought out manoeuvre. This is why good strikers will get joy from our defending

 

[jceverton]

If they're his transfers why isnt he playing them

Don’t you remember his previous tenure? The guy is not a top manager.

 

[Titus Shambles]

Voted for McNeil for the lols, worst thing I’ve ever seen, he looked like Mark Corrigan out there.

 

[mahermi1]

12 votes for McNeil MOTM, who are these people?

Sunderland supporters, they've got to be ! To be fair Dwight did improve near the end.

"diabolical" "awful", "poor"... you do like a bit of hyperbole don't you?
And "Barry done okay"... you are surely joking

Okay he was diabolical. Happy

 

[Abraders]

You should have won

It was like watching prime Brazil second half

Xhaka was Dunga personified

It was prime Madrid from us for 30 mins. Shocking how quickly and decisively that changed.
