DeAndre Yedlin impresses in his Sunderland debut

DeAndre Yedlin was one of the lone bright spots in Sunderland's Capital One Cup loss to Man City, giving Dick Advocaat and Jurgen Klinsmann something to think about.

DeAndre Yedlin's first chance to impress his new club, Sunderland, was about as tough a challenge as he could have imagined. Facing Manchester City, and its collection of dangerous attackers, Yedlin was thrown into the deep end by Sunderland manager Dick Advocaat, and while his team couldn't do much to stop Manchester City, Yedlin did more than enough to show Advocaat he is worthy of more opportunities.
