Match Thread | Sheffield Utd vs Man City (27/08/23)

[Nour]

Micheal Owen saying we should have had three penaltis.wow

 

[Gordyola]

Foden needed here. Why was he dropped?

He wasn’t dropped he didn’t travel with team assumed he may have a niggle

 

[Blue2202]

Ake playing last man...and he's the best at it.

Not based on his performance, we have no one from the back stepping into midfield which is taking away from us going forward

foden for kova
doku for jack in 70 plus mins

No way! How would you keep Grealish till 70 mins and exit Kova who has clearly been doing much more

 

[Gabriel]

Too slow for most of the half and too many passages of play are having to go through Rodri. He shouldn’t be seen as the ‘creator’, so the others ahead of him have to step up and take the risk.
Haaland also needs to work on his runs. If the play is out wide, attack the front post, and if the play is near the box, peel to the back post. He’s run in the opposite direction twice and passed up decent chances earlier in that half. Mind you, if you’re being wrestled to the ground, it doesn’t matter which direction you are headed.

 

[Barcon]

Grealish like shape of cell. Must forgive to entice Foden into pitch.

 

[Keeper!]

Jack needs to play like he's making love to a beautiful lady...

Get in the box and shoot in seconds.

Sheffield have camped out. They have turned it into a rugby match. Fucking cloggers ruining the game. Maybe when the go down again they could apply to the rugby league instead?

 

[Gumzy97]

We don't have a midfielder out there, that will take a risk, in the squad Kev and Foden are the only ones that play that risky ball in behind. Instead of side ways passing. We just miss that killer ball in behind or into the box. If Foden comes on we will notice the difference.

grealish is an incredibly frustrating player to watch. The things that he's bad at, he's SO bad at them it's so comical.

You would hope he could be the creative spark but he’s been poor.
