Sunderland’s Star Man in the Premier League this weekend

Name: Yann M’Vila
Position: Midfielder

M’Vila was impressive in midfield at the Emirates.

Sunderland’s match at the Emirates against Arsenal may have eventually ended in a 3-1 defeat, but the scoreline doesn’t tell the whole story of the match.

With the scores at 1-1, the Black Cats had chances to go ahead, but they couldn’t take them. Despite the loss, there was a number of positive performers, with one of their stand out performers on the day being M’Vila.

The Frenchman kept it neat and tidy in midfield, delivered some decent corners and was unlucky not to pick up an assist after finding young Duncan Watmore with a brilliant through ball.
