Pretty much. We play the same team and formation every week, tight at the back and pace on the break. Same as in the Championship with the addition of a couple of top class players (Moutinho who is on a different planet, Jimenez who is top scorer in the country and Traore who has just learnt how to play football). But we are suspect at the back to high balls now that Boly is out and we are often ineffective against teams that sit back and crowd out the attacking wingbacks. 11 games in the Europa League have been a doddle so far, but the heavy pitch last night was really draining and stamina may come into it in the second half on Sunday. Am expecting a hard fought tight game, with no diving and nasty tackles. Could go either way.Wolves are an excellent counter attacking team but struggle to break down teams who sit in. Think it might suit us to be a little bit more cautious in this game.
Won't hurt our chances at all that they played away in Portugal on Thursday either. Obviously there's the tiredness but the main thing is that they will have very little time to work in training on tactics for this game.
“If Mousset scores 10 goals this season I will be very very surprised”
Lol.
Good to hear it - i always had Wolves fans down as being decent, as shown following our 3-0 defeat at the Millenium Stadium in 2003 where there was no gloating that i saw. We have our fair share of uneducated "fans" too.Wolves fan here. I can only speak on behalf of myself, but every fan I spoke to away in Portugal this week had nothing but positives to say about Blades this season. This month we are playing Bournemouth, Braga and Brighton away, alongside Blades and West Ham at home, and the clear consensus is that the game on Sunday will be the toughest of the lot. The work ethic instilled by Wilder and the structure and style of play that you see is similar to what we have seen under Nuno, with both managers being a credit to the game in terms of their attitude and behaviour.
We keep our shape, fight for every ball and play the best football that we have seen for years. Seems to me (and most neutrals) that Blades do exactly the same. Milton Keynes, Port Vale and Burton Albion away and here we are now both giving Tottenham and ManUtd a run for their money. As for the match itself, of course we want to win, but no one should be expecting anything other than a battle between two teams rightfully sat in the top 6 of the best league in the world.
Strange how they mention when they thrashed us at Molinueux
but seem to have forgot how we outclassed them at Bramall Lane only 2 years ago (admittedly they were down to 10 men but we dominated when they had 11).
We even had Leon Clarke dominating their defence.
I’m already predicting that Wolves will have their worse game of the season against us.
They’ll struggle to see much of the ball and will look lethargic.
The Wolves fans will blame their “off-day” on playing in the Europa Cup and being more tired.
They’ll say “Sheff United wanting it more” ha ha
We play bettter football and are a better team than Wolves, whilst they have quality individuals, should be a tight game...probably a draw.
Thanks -Our team that day:
Moore
Basham Stearman O'Connell
Baldock Fleck Evans Stevens
Holmes
Clarke Wilson
“We smashed sheff at home in champ when they used same tactics and mainly same players”
O'Connell, Basham, Stevens, Fleck, Baldock are literally the only ones that played that day.....yes they battered us quite convincingly that day but we're definitely not the same team.

I like Wolves. I have always felt, of all the 92 clubs, they are the club most like us. I have never seen/heard any arrogance from their fans in the past. The arrogance from a few on their forum, I'm putting down to typical Internet knowsnowt.
and for Muscat!Thanks Roy owe them one for the Millennium Stadium
I hated Wolves, still don't like them. We seemed to play them and Ipswich every other week in the 90'sI like Wolves. I have always felt, of all the 92 clubs, they are the club most like us.
