Seen a few pigs complaining about the fact that the Sheffield Star’s combined 11 is weighted toward the blades ( 7-4). They are definitely being generous, a fairer 11 would be.

Nah - Moore for Blackman...
 
Can't be true, Sheffield Star hate us, this must just be a ploy to try and burn The Lane down.
 
Since 1970

If I have to pick 5 Wendy and 5 Blades to play the full 90 mins plus one of each to play 45 mins


Pressman

Lyons
Jagielka
Morgan

Waddle
Currie
Sheridan
Craig/Whitehouse

Woodward
Deane
Hirst
 
Reminds me of Johnny Fantham's testimonial match I went to in October 1970. Wendy 1966 FA Cup final team v Sheffield X1. Can see Hodgy and Tudor in the photo. I think TC and Woody played too

My combined squad was (at full strength)

Westwood
Baldock/Freeman
Basham
Stearman
O’Connell
Stevens/Reach
Coutts
Fleck
Duffy
Clarke
Hooper

Bannan
Lees
Blackman/Moore
Sharp
Lee
Brooks
Jake Wright

Agree with that, but I like the look of Wildsmith as second choice keeper as well.

With Coutts out, I'd take Bannan over Lundstram.
 
If we’re bring completely objective and including injured players (i.e. Coutts), you have to include Forestieri. Even if you have to put him up top.

He’s an excellent footballer at this level.
 
Pressman over Kelly???

Mmm thought the same.

Depends which Pressman he meant. The Pressman who played against the Blades was the best keeper this world has ever seen. The other Pressman.... not so much.

Tracey is better than Kelly anyway. If you had to choose just 5 Blades and 5 Wendy for 90 mins plus another one from each side to play for 45 minutes it is not as easy as you might think. Try it!

Think I'd agree with this. Only Hooper and Westwood I'd take. Reach at LB though !! Every pig I know play hell when he's at LB, but you've got Stevens there so all good

LWB to be fair and from what I’ve seen of Reach he’s very good going forward, so think he’d be ideal. LB in a back four, probably not so much!

I hope that's a piss take, Tracey couldn't touch Kelly, good keeper on his day but not in the same league as Sir Alan!

Good point actually, I've only watched us all season so why I though of a LB in our side is beyond me ! Ha
 
All being fit;

Westwood

Basham Stearman O’Connell

Baldock Fleck Coutts Foristieri Reach

Hooper Clarke
 

Those stats mean jack though do they? Tracey played in a double promotion side which got him the marginally better win ratio over Kelly who played in lets face it, some bang average sides, suffered a relegation and never played in a side that won automatic promotion! Goalkeeper on Goalkeeper without the win ratios (as that involves others around them) Alan Kelly was a better all round goalkeeper imho!

Yeah, as would I.

If he hadn’t dropped off the face of the earth, he’d be in!
