Yorkey gets a mixed reaction as some of the crowd see his laid back style as a sign of disinterest, others feel he is looking to pick the perfect pass all the time instead of keeping the momentum of the attack going.
For me, I felt he had one of his better games for Sunderland, put some good tackles in, sprayed the ball about , and most imprtantly retained possesion when Ipswich were threatening a comeback.
Conditions pretty poor and not condusive to good football ( strong winds) which didnt help Carlos in the first 15-20 minutes, as a lot of the balls to him were finding touch.He played a part in the goal and from then on he proved a very good outlet, something we have missed for 6-7 years.I,personally would give him 7.5 from 10, same with Yorkey.Star men were debutant Johnny Evans and Nyron Nosworthy.
Its difficult to play as a wide man in those conditions as the wind can make a good ball bad , and vice versa, so I'll update again after we play Sheffield on Saturday.
Overall I'm happy with his contribution.
Cheers
