71% possession for Sheffield United already ...

I maintained these lot play better football than us and was told otherwise. Already very evident.

Already getting outplayed and just sitting back watching them ...

Have to love how Redknapp keeps defending Bruce yet then predicts a win for Sheffield despite them being the worst team in the division by a mile.

These pundits are degenerates man

I wasn't going to harp on about that myself, but really happy for Theo. He's been really good for Southampton since returning.

Always maintained he should have been used more than Bernard and Iwobi last season at Everton and got loads of stick for it.

Cannot believe how negative that team is. He's absolutely shat his pants

The Sheffield United team is pretty positive too. Norwood, Lundstram and Fleck are some of their more forward thinking midfielders that did well for them last season.

Wilder is going for blood.

Have him in my team too

Not triple captain though

Yeah, it's rough.

I do think the pressure will be immense if we do lose to them though.

If the takeover signs are looking increasingly promising he may well have to be ditched to make sure we don't get pulled into the bottom three.

It would have to be someone experienced and that would come in till the end of the season. Perhaps someone like Nigel Pearson I imagine.

Folk saying if we don’t win tonight he has to go......so if we do you actually want to keep him? 

 

 

Believe me win lose or draw he’s staying all season .

Think they mean that if we lose he has to go immediately, as in he shouldn't be let on the coach

We absolutely can’t be picking our attackers based on how well they defend set pieces.

 

FFS.

:lol:

This club man. We are so depressingly bad.

In actuality, we might as well pick them based on how they do defend set pieces because they don't do any attacking.

They'll learn nowt from McClaren. They don't understand form or momentum. Nothing will be done until its too late.

 

Aye. McClaren should've gone after we lost 5-1 to Chelsea in mid February, we had 3 weeks without a game before a double header v Stoke and Bournemouth which we ended up losing after sticking with McClaren. Benitez would've came in in those 3 weeks and we almost certainly would've picked up more points than in the 10 games he had and stayed up. And we may well have kicked on, I'll die on the hill that going down in 2015/16 set us back years and probably was the beginning of the end for Benitez here in spite of him staying and the optimism of those first 6 months in the Championship.

 

The will they won't they of binning McClaren after the home Bournemouth defeat filled me with dread, fear out of who they'd replace him with. By the following Friday we confirmed Benitez and we all couldn't fucking believe it. I remember being so giddy at seeing photos of him on SSN on adverts for his first game at Leicester and even more so seeing him being interviewed with the crest on his lapel. Reason I'm reiterating this is because no one ever thought we'd ever appoint a manager of the calibre of Rafa under Ashley, will we again? 99.99% sure that managers of that calibre that are out of work that I would get super giddy about being here; Allegri for example (Tuchel maybe too? Don't particularly rate him as anywhere near that calibre) wouldn't touch an Ashley NUFC with a ten mile pole due to saga after saga when Rafa was here regarding transfers. Surely?

 

God I'm depressed now.

Sad thing is they didn't even approach Rafa. He got in touch with the club himself to say he was interested.

Every other time Mike Ashley and his "advisors" have picked the manager and it's been a disaster every single time.

Those quotes man. So going to blow up in his face

Someone's took the bait!

Playing 120 minutes against Arsenal is the correct answer.

Of course! It's absolutely going to be that. Urgh!

Nah, that will come across so poorly he'd face a ton of heat. We've been clear of that for a good while now

After he loses tomorrow what on Earth is he going to say to excuse it?

£72 million pounds ...

Haven’t thought that Gedson is up to much.

Not sure what he's supposed to be exactly.

We are in an era of football where managers are capable of playing multiple formations and different approaches in a single game.

Our manager is talking about the progress he has made with the team because over four games the team is 'getting used to' simply playing further up the pitch.

:lol: :lol:

We'll win 0-1. They are shite.

 

You quoting a sheff united forum?

 

There's only one team in the whole division I feel are bad enough to make us look like something resembling a football team. This is the one mate, we are going to pass them off the park.

I can't believe you honestly believe that. See you Tuesday man. Looking forward to your thoughts then.

We are going to lose this game.

Honestly, I am so sick of hearing his nonsense, that I could probably do with a break in football just so as not to see his goofy face and hear his stupid mouth. At this point I would actually welcome a break with open arms.

Morally the cunt should resign.

Indeed. Pot and kettle.

 

Obviously he isn't wrong in his sentiment, especially if things continue with outbreaks at clubs. 

I'm sure things will be stopped when they need to.

I don't want to hear from those two charlatans that are just serving their own interests.

Spurs' latest test came back with no positives in their squad. If PL/football stops the players are still going to be going into training though, aren't they?

 

Still living in same 'bubbles' interacting with their wives, kids etc. Basically the same risk of them catching anything is still going to be there. All that's going to essentially change is match days, when currently obviously anyone whose positive isn't allowed anywhere near.

 

Allardyce came out with this nonsense last week. In his point, if he was that worried about Covid at 66 he wouldn't have taken the job, and would be masked up all the time. His interest was obviously the fact WBA are in a tale spin, and stopping football would sort that immediatly.

 

Bruce is only coming out with this as it'll suit his own end if football is cancelled for a bit. More time to get players back fit, and more time on training ground with them, and obviously curtail the fact he can't buy a win atm (LLWWLDLLDL)   

You're 100% correct. No coincidence it's both Allardyce and Bruce. They have absolutely no regard for anyone's well being whatsoever and are clearly just covering their arses as they always do.

If it really mattered to Allardyce so much why on earth would he take a job just a few weeks prior knowing the current circumstances?  They both lack integrity and are just looking for the easiest way out, and it's just a convenient ruse.

Pathetic stuff.

Sterling man ...

Looking for a reason not to have to shoot there. Terrible.
