Sheffield Utd (H) | Pre-Match Thread

so you play the strongest 11 and get a good lead THEN rotate .
like we did v West Brom.

That means your subs never get a full 90 minutes to get/maintain match sharpness though

 

[SWP's back]

Yeah and we've kept a clean sheet every game. Last time we rotated them we conceded and dropped points.

So we’d just play the same two for the rest of the season then and when one gets injured from playing 65 games, fuck it?

Playing Laporte means Dias playing on his wrong side,

Wtf? Dias was bought to play with Laporte for fucks sake. Now we have a right and a left footer. It’s not his ‘wrong’ side.

 

[BlueMoonRisin’]

Why?

Why what. Are you a flat earther or sumfink?

I like it...Stones was due a rest and that front three is very fluid, Torres needs game time. Hopefully Sheffield know they are not playing United

shows just how impressive Dias has been because he's been playing on the left side almost exclusively and made it look easy.

this time last year we d have been delighted laporte was back in the team.now people moaning ffs the reason we have been great over the last few years is strength in depth

Yes it is. Laporte is soft defender with passing qualities. Everything else is average.

I assumed everyone would be happy with the amount of stick Mahrez & Sterling have been getting recently?

No?

Yes , neither player has played to their potential recently and do not deserve to be in the team , i dont hate them or have an agenda against either player , neither are contributing enough and others players deserve a chance.

I am pleased to see Torres start with Gabby, Bernardo, Phil and Gundo. That is a very dangerous frontline. If there is a game to rotate, this is one of the games to choose. Zin deserves to keep his place though I am a little disappointed that Rodri and Stones have been rested; everyone needs it at some point and Pep's management of the squad has been very successful. I think we will win fairly comfortably 2-0.
