I think the key here are teams that play a high tempo pressing games almost always fade in the final quarter of the season. I’m sure when Klopp joined Liverpool, they started well, then faded looking tired towards the end. Last season Sheff United played a high pressing game working so hard off...

Agree you should win, but don’t make the mistakes of thinking Rotherham will be easy. They’ve been playing quite well, usually well organised but struggle to score, they are the joint lowest scorers in the Champiomship scoring just 8 goals in 11 matches.

Yeh I now see what I’ve written. You’re sharp Bobbin, proves you’re paying attention ha.

I first heard the quote “quarter back role” used by tv commentators describing David Beckhams role whilst playing for England. Kevin Macdonsld used to play that quarterback role when he played for us then he played the exact same role at Wolves. The quarter back role is a midfielder that takes...

We lost our main player last year, Paul Coutts who played a quarter back role taking the ball off the defenders making numerous long and short passes never giving the ball away. He was top of the pass completion stats last season, then he broke his leg in November, out for the full season. At...

Don’t know what to say. We look a seriously good side these days, comfortable win against a team who haven’t lost at home for over a year. Since buying Oliver Norwood we’ve now won 7 out of our last 9 league matches. Dare I dream about auto’s? Of course not, far too early yet but at least...

Rovers like to attack, create loads of chances but they let the opposition have chances too. United like to attack. create loads of chances but allow the opposition to have chances. Should be a really open game with plenty of goals. Suppose that means it’s nailed in for a 0-0 or 1-0. Blackburn...

Thats exactly what Sheff Utd fans were saying when we drew with Birmingham on Wednesday. In fact some were saying it was our worse performance in years. A match we dominated for 75 minutes with Birmingham parking the bus. We had numerous attacks, numerous corners but struggled to create a...

Strange game. 1st half: First 15 mins even, then SU took over with PNE defending deep. No surprise when SU scored, deservedly 1-0 up at half time. 2nd half: SU scores an early goal to make it 2-0, the PNE heads dropped, the game looked over because it was almost too easy with SU cruising in...

Agree with the comments above. Birmingham were extremely negative putting many players behind the ball. 1st half: Sheff Utd dominated possession playing some pretty passing football but for all our attacks and corners we hardly created a single chance. Birmingham’s defence was really strong...

Listened to the live commentary on Radio Sheffield. Seems we were in control and looked comfortable from the 10th minute to the 60th minute, didn’t create any clear cut chances but had several half chances and good situations, deserved to be leading at half time However Bristol City eventually...

Both teams in good form. Wilder always seems to concentrate on his own team performing instead of trying to negate/ stop the opposition. So should be an open attacking game. Very confident we’ll score but also very confident we’ll concede. The most likely score is probably a 2-2 draw.

The signing of Oliver Norwood is already a contender to being one of our best signings in many years. We use him in a defensive midfield quarterback role taking the ball off the defence. He sets the tempo of matches, very comfortable on the ball and great decision making, knows when to play...

I’m currently on holiday but watched the whole match on ifollow. Last week was one of our best away performances in ages outclassing Bolton 3-0. This week was one of our best home performances in ages outclassing Villa 4-1. Playing some really good, quick pass and move football where every...

Reminiscenct of some of our displays in league 1 when we won the league. The match became boringly predictable, no stress for Blades fans, just sit back and wait for us to score. Should have won by more than 3-0 but the signs are looking good. However don’t think we can get carried away...

Oh well, suppose things could be worse. The main news for Blades is that new signing Norwood looks a huge upgrade on Lee Evans. He takes the corners and we finally now look dangerous.

Give over.....you’re a Blades loyalist. You’ve either emigrated, in prison or in bad health. If you’re being serious. then hope you’re OK.

Sounds like you didn’t go, are you on holiday? It was an entertaining game. We started on the front foot and deservedly went 1-0 up, we continued to dominate and you couldn’t see Norwich scoring, then out of the blue Rhodes scores. Their goal seemed to knock our confidence and Norwich looked...

Agree, it sorts out the serious bidders from the time wasters. If a bidding club has done extensive research then they should know if the loanee will be a regular or not. Also I suppose Liverpool know that Woodburn will be in demand at Championship level, they can’t insist a player plays but...

I went to that game. Warnock put out a weakened side but it was still really embarrassing. We were totally outclassed on the field and off the field. Swansea were a lower division team but played like Real Madrid, no wonder they quickly rose up the divisions. Also the Swansea support was one of...
