Mcatee cup tied?

Could have been a shout for him to get a chance in this one, but unfortunately not.

What’s up with Akanji?

Not necessarily anything, we have a squad to rotate?

 

[oldius]

No messing about there - bloody strong lineup.

 

[Stelea]

Who is playing the Stones role today?

 

[eastmanc]

I almost hope he's just sick as I admittedly and maybe unfairly worry about Phil keeping his nose out of trouble off of the pitch.

That a bit of a leap.

It's really weird that Foden isn't in the side.

Good Clarkie

I don’t see that as arrogance. It’s just the truth we are the best team in the world and Sheffield United are pretty average. We will win

Yeah but remember, we were playing York away 25 years ago so let's not forget where we've come from!

If people want to beat around the Bush and think it'll be a tough one nil scrappy win then thats fine, it probably makes them feel a bit better.

Personally I like to just call it as I see it, and the facts are these lot have had 4 shots on target in 2 games, against aides that will probably fight relegation.

So for me, its a cozy win, which the bookies seem to back up.

Why does he?

Hes right, we all want Phil to mould into a fantastic asset this year and he constantly gets dropped game after game when he was fantastic in the last match. Its a fair fucking point

He's over reacting, that's why. And where did you hear that Phil has been "dropped" (your word)?
