Sunderland boss Bruce hails Man Utd youngster Welbeck after Chelsea shock

Manchester United attacker Danny Welbeck caught the eye for Sunderland in their shock win at Chelsea.

Steve Bruce was delighted with the performances all over the pitch, and was particularly pleased with loanee Welbeck.

Teamed with record signing Asamoah Gyan, the Manchester United man gave the Chelsea defence a torrid time and capitalised on Ashley Cole's error to bag a deserved goal late on:

"We can talk about allsorts after that game. People can talk about Welbeck- how good was he today?

"For a 19 year old boy to come and perform on a stage like that was absolutely awesome.

"All round I'm so pleased. We did very well and looked like a very good team."
