Match Thread Barnsley v Blades

[Mouth of the South]

I hope one of the local journalists (sic) remembers to ask about JOC. I remember him going over on his knee when the turf gave way during the Betis game and looking sore afterwards. I was surprised he played at Burton and Northampton. Hopefully it won't be a serious issue.

Not playing mousset because when we reveal he's not wearing 9 everyone will get extra stiff knowing we're keeping it free for mcburnie

 

[8lade]

And anybody who Joey Barton feels the urge to deliver a twatting to has got to be ok in my book.

Gave you a 'like' for that but then realised that is Barton's casual way of communicating with people, I'll leave it.

 

[SUFC Guy]

And Lundstram's starting at Bournemouth isn't he.

Hopefully

 

[BigBed]

Saw on twitter earlier that ravel and mousset are expected to be involved but Hendo and Osborn might not be

Well that was total bollocks then

 

[Speedracer]

Lundstram looking at 40 + starts this season it would appear.

Maybe we are looking at bringing in an upgrade on Lunny via PL loan or purchase but haven't landed him yet, so we are playing the formation for that player?

 

[SUFC Guy]

I believe so. From one blade2blade

WUSDP ?

(Where u seen dis pal?)

Only people that make him moist

Barnsley started well to be fair to them, look decent when they get the ball

 

[LoughboroBlade]

Great work by Lundstram to win the ball back, plays it forward quickly and continues his run, gets the ball back at the byline, cuts it back for Osborn to finish.

 

[sufcboy95]

Good goal, great build up play to win it back. Osborn made a good start looks decent at LWB

 

[Bladesthorpe]

0-1 Osbourne

 

[LoughboroBlade]

Lovely rendition of “Programmes Three Quid” just now.

 

[HaywoodBlade]

Is JOC on his way or injured? Saw a post on FB about him being in Newcastle but could be bollocks. Hope it is bollocks

 

[bromtom]

Lundstram needs to calm down with the slide tackles if he's going to keep being late.

Think he'd be off by now if this wasn't a friendly haha

 

[bypassblade]

I don't do FB but my son is on it and watching game on blade2blade only available on FB, he says go on FB log in, join blade2blade he says a link to game comes on.

 

[jono_t2000]

Wet surface doesnt look like it drains all that well... seems really heavy. Not ideal for the Norwood ping.

More like route 1 stuff at the moment...

Why? The one he’s just made looked a quality tackle

He’s had a very good half. Tenacious. Won’t go down well with those that criticise any time he’s named in the starting XI, but Lundstram has done well so far and was central to the goal.

 

[LoughboroBlade]

Been impressed by Osborn so far. Seems to have seamlessly slotted in at LWB. Hope in the second half he has some time in Fleck’s position as it would be good to see how he does there too.

Cheers CJX

Barnsley streaming it on their Facebook page.

 

[Wards]

If you’re thinking of getting a half time beer...don’t bother. You’ll be queuing until full time

 

[bromtom]

He's made some good ones, but he's made at least two that were very late imo.

He has had a good half overall though, wasn't trying to say otherwise.

Watched last 20 minutes thought we were in control good goal , Osborne looks tidy

 

[Antonb]

Played alright at times. Didsy is a better midfielder than he is a Striker. Osbourn done well for first game straight in the team

 

[Sam64]

Is JOC on his way or injured? Saw a post on FB about him being in Newcastle but could be bollocks. Hope it is bollocks

he's very much in Sheffield

 

[Ricky]

Robinson basically playing as a striker. Him and McGoldrick look very comfortable playing together.

Osborn and Fleck looking tidy. Very natural understanding there. Osborn will fit in straightaway.

 

[Toronto Blade fan]

How does Barnsley have a video feed .... yet we don’t.
