Maresca was right when he predicted #SAFC visit would be City's toughest test so far. But never could he have guessed it would play out like this! Keep playing like they have last two weekends & Sunderland beat anyone other than two teams they've played... www.thenorthernecho.co.uk/sport/265659...

Dom Shaw @domshawecho.bsky.social · 20/09/2026

Breathless and brilliant first half. #SAFC positive and threatening going forward from minute one. Unfortunate to be behind. Undone by combination of defensive lapses and City quality. Le Fee & Brobbey class.

Dom Shaw @domshawecho.bsky.social · 20/09/2026

🔄 Dayann Methalie makes #SAFC Premier League debut, replacing Reinildo in only change from last week's game against Arsenal. After dropping to bench in midweek vs AZ, Meunier, Ballard, Angulo & Brobbey back in for Hume, Alderete, Fofana and Isidor.

050

Dom Shaw @domshawecho.bsky.social · 19/09/2026

Unbeaten in six, one defeat in eight & another late goal but #Boro got away with one there. Three weeks now to work on the issues that were evident & costly in second half and have been through early weeks of season: defending, game-management & consistency from one half to next.

070

Dom Shaw @domshawecho.bsky.social · 19/09/2026

That's another dreadful goal for #Boro to concede

030

Dom Shaw @domshawecho.bsky.social · 19/09/2026

Amario Cozier-Duberry again the difference. Two goals and assist in two and a half league games for #Boro. His ball retention under pressure is remarkable. He has no right to work that to Arfsten for goal. Boro got better as half went on.

Dom Shaw @domshawecho.bsky.social · 19/09/2026

3⃣ #Boro changes with the fit again Malanda in alongside Arfsten & Peart-Harris. Borges, Berhalter and Conway drop out (all on bench). ❓Back three as was successful here last season or Malanda in midfield?

A point felt unlikely after 45 minutes, three points felt likely after an hour. #Boro transformed after the break and the changes. Cozier-Duberry immense & will terrify defences this season. Boro haven't yet mastered the art of stringing together two good halves.

290

Dom Shaw @domshawecho.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

Had to be ACD. Has been #Boro's most likely route to goal from the off. Much more pace and purpose to Boro's play since HT.

Triple change at HT tells us what Hellberg made of that first 45

Dom Shaw @domshawecho.bsky.social · 15/09/2026

Reminiscent of some of the Riverside displays in second half of last season. 82% possession and 10 shots without ever really looking like scoring. Millwall stubborn and organised at the back. Boro anything but. Both goals really soft.

Bonkers & brilliant game. Areas Hellberg clearly needs to address - balance being one - but what a win & what a way to win. ACD already looks like game-changer and nothing we didn't already know but Conway is so important. Eight different goalscorers already this season.
