Erikse

I agree, I remember last season when he was wide. The only times he did anything of value was when he went into positions where he would be as a striker anyways. He got himself into those positions less frequently, and stopped scoring goals as a result. Also the defensive contribution was obviously going to be really bad. Problem is that we can't play Gordon every single game, so if Joelinton is not ready soon then Isak might have to step in anyways. Unless we want to play Anderson at LW.

Howe bought Barnes so that he could take the injury instead of Gordon. Man can see the future.

In hindsight it's funny how everyone was laughing at Chelsea for trying to sign Gordon for about £60m, but when they got Mudryk for £88.5m instead and people were like "oh Chelsea are really cooking now".

Even on the Sheffield United forum there were some users saying that they were lucky not to recieve a red. It was just a yellow for me, but for sure it was a foul imo.

A pregnant elephant? I tried to google its meaning, and I found this: Worrying.

I thought his goal was the best one yesterday. Great shot that one! Seems like he's starting to contribute in terms of g/a output aswell now. End product is improving.

Apparently the rule states that if it was not deliberate, and the ball didn't come directly off his arm to the goalscorer, then it's not handball. It should be handball imo, but accoring to the rules it isn't.

I keep saying it. We've become really good at killing games, and I love that about us. So much fun when we just keep scoring. No trying to drop deep just to invite them back into the game.

Vs relegation teams last season when we finished 4th: Conceded in both games vs Southampton, in the last one we were 1 goal down at half time and won it late. 2 draws against Leeds, conceding several chances including a missed penalty in the last one. 1 win and 1 draw against Leicester, we dominated the draw when they completely parked the bus, but we started conceding chances in the last 10 minutes including a huge one in extra time. I don't understand how on earth a slow start to a game is a cause for concern all of a sudden.. I asked for examples of games where we "played out of our skin for 90 minutes", but it seems like he can't provide it.

Can you give an example of a game where we played out of our skin for 90 entire minutes? Where we completely dominated from start to finish? Maybe 2-0 against Man United last season. Other than that, I think you will struggle to find one, especially one where we lost. It would be strange to me if they gave up already at 1-0.. I don't think they really gave up until it was 3-0 or so.

Maybe we had a slow start for 10 minutes or so, but that doesn't mean that we were 7/10 overall today. It's as if Isak scored 5 goals in a game, but we give him a 7 rating because he didn't do much for the first 10 minutes.

7/10? We broke records today.. Lots of teams have been 2/10 against top sides before without having records be broken against them. So if we were 9/10 today we would've won 14-0?

Gordon put a like on every comment except from Botmans comment. Worrying.

Sheffield United forum pre match.

This guy should be starting every week whenever he's fit. What an impact he's making.

Howe out, sell Bruno.

Why did we not want the last corner?

So where are all the experts saying that Chelsea will be back this season?

Manchester United are so damn boring to watch this season. Usually their opponents are more entertaining, which includes Wolves and Burnley..

The waterbottle one?

I thought he was doing a lot of strange things against us aswell. He didn't look very good. On another note, did anyone see Juves own goal? Crazy

Honestly thought that all 3 situations should've gone in their favour, and not just 2 of them. Sometimes lucky, I guess..

I kind of don't care that much anymore, but Simon Jordan is getting on my nerves. Having strong opinions about things he doesn't have a clue about, making assumptions, and talking as if he's an expert. At the same time as he attacks other people for seemingly having agendas and biases, not getting facts straight, and mindlessly swallowing media narratives. Which is exactly what he is doing in this case. The least you should expect is for him to get his facts straight, or do some basic fact checking.

I don't know. I remember stats saying we were 20th in the league in both chances created and chances against under Bruce. A miracle we stayed up, and in the last full season we played way better after Graeme Jones came in, and went from 19th to 13th or something like that. Never seen a Bruce team play like that. Coincidence? Right before this we had parked the bus against Sheffield United, giving them their first win of the season (halfway through), just inviting them into our box the entire game.
