Sheffield Utd (H) | Pre-Match Thread

[bert38]

I agree that Cancelo gets in ahead of Walker at the moment but its all about game time & Sheffield is a game to give some players a rest.

Can easily see Walker and La Porte staring either today or against Burnley-all about squad management right now.

 

[Burtonblue]

Cancelo is undroppable at present.
May get a rest on the hour if things going well.

State of those quotes lol

We are all glory hunters.

Yes - like many on here, I have glory-hunted my way through 45 years, 3 different divisions and 6 relegations.

Massive (I know) game today.

I’d go with what’s working;

Eddie
Cancelo Stones Dias Zin
Gundo Rodri Bernardo
Sterling Jesus Foden

Well they’ve got my card marked.

We never spank these lot, it's always a low scoring win. Not the time for complacency. So dont rest anyone and put out our best team.

 

[dublinblue12]

Sheffield should have got some confidence after beating the rags, who fielded a slightly weakened team, so no resting key players for me

 

[Stoned Rose]

Early goal required to squash any sense of slight confidence these cunts might have after beating the other cunts.

3-0.

 

[Fellview]

Is this match still on?
BBC seem oblivious to the fact the league leaders are playing the team who pulled off the most notable result of the week possibly the whole season.

Shameless innit.Reckon 6-0 to Arsenal..next mornings sports news...Jimmy Anderson in his hotel room

Fuck resting players for this, now is the time to put the pedal to the metal and open up a gap at the top

 

[The Black Shed]

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Same team as per WBA.

Yep. All out for it today hopefully

Sheffield have a sackful of shit results this season but teams like this are an Achilles heel if taken lightly .... Be interesting to see what team Pep picks

 

[Eccles Blue]

The Boys in Blue never give in. They fight to the end. COME ON CITY. COME ON CITY.

 

[Manciniera]

Same team vs WBA here please. No room for taking these lightly. Would be foolish. Go big.

 

[Pingu the Penguin]

Expecting a bit of rotation but gotta win these games to win the league

 

[Lovebitesandeveryfing]

As many have noticed, Sheffield United have just been losing matches, by a one goal margin. They could just hold us to a draw (it's not beyond the bounds of possibility, shit occurs) or — horrors! —just win it.
I fully expect us to win. As I fully expected us to win against Cheltenham Town. For twenty minutes, I was shitting bricks.
Whatever happens, let's not have an abusive meltdown on here, eh? Many miles to go…
P.S. in the poll above, I have predicted “lose”. On the reverse jinx principle, which has been working beautifully in recent weeks.

 

[WickyWain]

You and I have very different definitions of bad!

Roy's View From... - Pre-Match View From Man City

I'd hazard a guess a fair few of those City fans that were insisting as they faced that chanp league ban that it was a big conspiracy to keep them down (yes, it was all a big consiracy because the spending limit thing was for everyone but city obviously) are also the same ones coming out with...

Five pages of slagging us off in this thread, calling us all sorts. The arrogance to act like they don't have any arsehole fans is quite astounding.

Too blinkered to understand that the guy who complied the thread did so with an agenda in mind. Publish the bad comments, ignore the good, paint us as twats. Schoolboy stuff.

Here's hoping we smash the shit bags :)

 

[Bellamy's Caddy]

Does anyone know what the latest is with Ake? I was pleased when we signed him and I still think he'll do well for us, but he's had a horrendous run. I think I read he had covid, if so I hope he's removing ok, just haven't seen anything mentioned about him for a while.

 

[jimharri]

No arrogance from the team today, I'm hoping. Respect the Blades, don't fear them. A solid, professional 2-0/3-0 win.
