Defence and keeper need to be more clear in those situations

Was just about to write it's concering how much space we give them out wide.

Fucking shit goal

We're clearly too bad to lose against for these Man Utd players who didn't feel we are worthy of putting effort in against, and now they're lashing out in frustration.

that first touch by Joelinton to break away

Someone need to take out Ronaldo. Cunt.

I think Richard Dunne turned quicker than Longstaff does

It would have been interesting to see how he plays under Howe compared to Bruce, but getting Murphy on an moving ASM up top probably is the safer bet

Joelinton and ASM comparison of effectiveness there be like that Indiana Jones scene where the ninja/samurai is doing all those tricks before Indy just shoots him.

Please be ok

Listen to this crowd man. Goosebumps just watching it through the screen.

Close!

Nah, his general play has been woeful and he's been getting the ball from ASM plenty of times.

Wilson has been pretty shit so far.

You can tell everyone in the team were nervous as well with how many came up to check on him. They know how important he is at the moment.

Ronaldo gave a team mate a thumbs up. Ragnick must have some dirt on him.

I wish our defenders would at least attempt at hitting a team mate when they are heading a ball un-challenged.

We need another goal quick while the pressure is up if we are to have much hope of getting something from this.

Wilson need to take that ball down. Great ball by ASM.

Fuuuuck, early goal again! 80 minutes to do something dumb.

Just my imagination or is ASM even more bandaged up than last match today? Hope it's for something like eczema that is spreading or that he's just cold.

Try and find any club ever being remotely close to paying that kind of fee for a full back at his age. You won't find it. For a reason. Atletico may value him higher, but he's not worth more than someone is willing to pay, and the most recent noises was the ~15m mentioned by Man Utd. I just find it baffling how people can say 25m is "nothing" and "great value" when it clearly isn't, despite him being a great player. Only if we stay up that fee can be justified imo, but it's still more than what any other club would ever pay. But....as I said, as long as it does not limit whom else we can bring in I really don't care.

Still belive we're getting mugged with that price. As was mentioned on here earlier, man utd was prepared to pay 15m or so 6 months ago but hey, it's not my money. As long as there's sufficient funds left to significantly improve Cb, cm & back-up/prospect CF I really don't care.

If he goes to West Ham he becomes the next Lescott, if he goes here he becomes the next Lascelles. Would still like that we tried to pick up prospects from the championship that may turn out to be good enough to keep us up, and if not, then at least more than good enough and willing to take us right back up again rather than signing a bunch of players that will want out if we dont manage to stay up so we have to essentially make three new squads in three seasons.

His main strength is protecting the defense from a central midfield position. That's where he excelled at Genk and for Norway. I havent seen him being used in that role at Sheffield United. Maybe that has changed since they got relegated, but last season he was primarily being used on the right of a midfield 3, where he was expected to contribute more offensively than defensively.
