If they disallow any goals for us today I shall put my foot through the TV screen! (We are watching the game at my mother-in-laws). ;)

We owe these one!

2-0 to the Blades my prediction.

There will be a penalty awarded in the game. I won’t tell you any more because I don’t want to spoil it for you.
 

We need to play at a much higher tempo and be more positive. The Villa game had 0-0 written all over it until their keeper carried it into his own goal - and even then it did!
 
A win would be nice,just to make Manure's arses twitch a bit and sow some seeds of doubt in their heads
 
We need a much better performance today, but as it happens I think we will see one.

There are 2 injustices to put right; the Shelvey incident in November and of course last Wednesday's travesty.

Going for a 2-1 Blades win. Sharp and Baldock to score.

Back off or I'll tell everyone and I mean everyone
Steve Bruce included !
Don't think I won't ,I've got nothing to losev
 
If Fleck is still out I’d like to see Freeman get a start, with Moose up top alongside McB or Sharp.

Freeman always adds something when he’s on, and I think he’s done enough to warrant a start soon. Fleck also might be more if a starting concern if he’s been injured after the long break also.
 
I'm currently pessimistic today, 0v0 I think. Hope not, but after Wednesday.
 
I think we might lose 2-0 today, it will be a tough game.

We weren't great on Wednesday and I can't decide if it will help (match practice) or hinder (fitness levels after 3 months off) having played already a short time ago.

I'd like to see Didz start though.
 
We should be o.k. today - I hear they've definitely switched Hawk-Eye on early this time.

First ever Blades match on my birthday! Hoping for a blades win otherwise I will have the munk on later when people come round for a (socially distanced) tea.
 

Good news about Fleck, bench looks healthier. Come on Blades.
 
I like Sharp and McBurnie but it just doesn’t work. It makes the midfield look ineffective and is a big part of why Berge is struggling to make much impact on games (as is Oli Norwood recently too). There’s no forward options for them spinning in to space or anything, Moose has to start playing soon we just look a much better side with that pace up front.

Think that’s overreacting a little from all the players you mention looking poor vs Villa. Sharp & McBurnie, and Ollie Norwood in particular, all looked good in the spell leading up to lockdown I thought. Norwood’s game on Wednesday was affected by the tactics of the Villa midfield more than down to who we’ve had up front, and we’ve seen him have similar games where teams have targeted him the same way (and with us playing a different front two).

No it’s not 😂 it was the period before lockdown where I started to think this, and it’s done nothing to change my mind since

I think individually both Sharp and Oli have been playing well but that doesn’t mean it works as a partnership, it makes us look a poorer team. We were a hard watch despite the good results pre-lockdown.
 
I thought the legs of Lundstram would have helped us more than the ball retention of Berge
