Have people forgotten it took months for Doyle & McAtee to produce consistently good performances?
You’re not Chris Wilder are you? He was the last numpty who thought you could bring players in for 2 or 3 years time. Completely forgetting the season we are in is the most important one. We haven’t got months to bed players in. We needed players who would hit the ground running, not players who might come good 2nd half of the season
 

If you're club aren't willing to pay decent wages and or spend any decent money how can you expect to get premier league ready players!!!
pay crap money and you end up with players we can all see are not good enough for the premier league.
Hamer, wont pay the money for him, for example.
Gykores, wont pay for him.
Doyle wont pay the money for him.
Buendia a couple of years ago, wont pay the money.
any player premier league ready and we wont pay the money for them.
Why would any player sign for a club that wont pay the wages or slap in massive relegation wage reduction clauses. No one else would take that in their jobs. I wouldn't.
you can go on and on, we always miss our targets due to wages or clauses.
But that said our older slower players, no problem wasting a wage on and players that are clearly not up to premier league standards, We will pay the money for!!!!
Tells you all you need to know really.

That's what you have to live with, unless you've got an owner who can chuck money in and see it disappear.
Or a fan base that can all chuck in 10-20 grand each a year
 
Agreed totally, but wasting wages on poor older players that are nowhere near good enough to play in the premier league anymore is absolutely bonkers and ties our cash up. release Fleck and any of the other older slower kept players and the wages combined gets you a Tommy Doyle or a Gustavo Hamer type player as an example.
 
This you? Apparently a new lad having his first game for us is 'useless' and we need 'gods help' next week. Why can't people pack it in with the constant negativity towards our new players and the team as a whole?

Aye, Not my finest hour either I guess. My apols to Osula and Traore. Need to give them time. 🖖
 
You think Osborn was better than Baldock, Anel and Berge yesterday?
They didn't do a deal. Don't think Berge looked interested. George didn't do much as Germans were always on the front foot and Anel was quiet too. Everyone is entitled to their opinion let's hope a few more signings happen before the window closes.

Telling us your view rather than fact tells us nothing.
 
Yeah that's good, and he always does, I've got no problem at all with his effort, attitude, tenacity, but sadly he will get dominated in midfield by pretty much the whole division as he's not good enough to be playing central midfield in the Prem.
At the moment whats the alternative?
 
Can’t for the life of me believe we’ve wasted a wage on this cunt.
Hecky should have been looking at a left wing back to replace Lowe as he’s terrible, not get a back up to him in. Olise & Eze this Saturday will take the absolute piss out of our left side just like a lot of championship sides did.
 
Reminds me of the time when we signed Chris Hussey everyone could see that he wasn’t up to the job

Put JLT at LWB and tell him to give each of them his gypsy warning
 

That’s the biggest problem with this site by a country mile, no one is allowed to give their honest opinion on a performance or a players performance if it’s anyway negative, if you do your bedwetting, spewing hate etc etc etc.. you might even get a thread started saying the sites overrun with pigs. All because you are giving an honest opinion, now I’m not saying each person is right with their opinions but they are allowed them in a “discussion forum”

The sooner people realise this then the quicker this place will be better for it.

My opinion so far of what I have seen in Larouci in a Blades shirt is that he is poor defensively and positional sense, technical not very good. Going forward I don’t see this marauding wing back because I don’t think I’ve seen him get past a single player yet, I have yet to see this very very quick player, doesn’t look slow but not seeing this super speed that was talked about. One positive is he can cross a ball.

That is based on the pre season that I have seen him in, BUT, it’s early days and he may go from strength to strength fingers crossed and be a very good signing, but right now no way can he start ahead of Lowe.
The problem is not about people’s opinions, it’s about the utter vile abuse that people spout about our own players. Do you ou not understand that?
 
I'm pretty sure the first thing our new French full back will have done upon signing is get registered on here.
You might laugh but it’s not unheard of. Whatever people think of him so far (in friendlies), calling him a c*nt and so on is hardly helpful. Give him a chance. The majority of people on here are right behind Hecky and Co. PH and Co made the signings, so backing him means backing his players.

I’m as worried as the next person because pre-season activity has definitely not gone the way anyone would have wanted. However, why don’t we do our bit and support the manager and players?
 
At the moment whats the alternative?
The only alternative for me is bring somebody in this week, preferably two. A defensive midfielder, preferably not a midget who can get about the pitch and be physical, then a more attacking left sided central midfielder. Dont think any of the academy lads should be thrown in as it could ruin them for the future, getting run all over by Palace on the opener in biggest stage of their career. If we don't bring anyone in then.. yes sadly Osborn is the only option but that doesn't change tye likelihood that he just isn't good enough.

Yes things need to change let's see what comes in on the cheap 🙏

Well, yes. But saying on a forum someone hasn't played well doesn't mean you're booing and giving them shit at the Lane though does it?
 
The problem is not about people’s opinions, it’s about the utter vile abuse that people spout about our own players. Do you ou not understand that?
Eh? I’m am talking about opinions, specifically opinions like ones on yesterdays game and Laroucis performance. And was in reply to posts about Larouci, like I said anything negative is bedwetting, spewing hate etc.. and my point is negative comments on how we play and players play should be allowed and discussed without posters getting their knickers in a twist.

Where you have come up with what I have said and vile abuse to players is beyond me, vile abuse has not been mentioned only negative opinions that’s all so what you on about? Goes without saying vile abuse should not be tolerated but that is not what we are talking about here, can you not understand that?
 
Thing is, the nature of abuse is that you tend to normalise it if you've been through it yourself as a way of coping with it and surviving.

The long and short of it is that most people being proper horrible cunts about players probably don't even realise they're doing it, because 'being a right horrible cunt' according to most people is perfectly normal according by them, hence why they do it. In order to acknowledge the shittiness of their behaviour will probably involve acknowledging that a lot of the ways they've been treated in also abusive - things which they have accepted as 'nornal' in order to cope with the pain of it, which understandably most people in these circumstances are not going to want to do. Too painful. Too much truth.

Honestly, telling people they're being verbally abusive, horrible cunts isn't usually going to work, even if it's factual by most people's standards.

What we need to do lads is galvanise and bring in any party that (a) invests in the direct services that work with child abuse (social services), and more broadly (b) works to eradicate poverty and therefore the multifarious stresses associated with it - stresses which, if a mixture of things come together in the right (wrong) way, result in parents not having the emotional energy or insight to relate to their kids in any kinds of empathic, nurturing way. That, in turn, creates the kind of culture whereby being a vile, abusive cunt can be seen as being somehow virtuous, ie 'telling it how it is'. That's how you deal with abuse - support people to bring up kids in a culture whereby they have enough support so that they have they have the emotional capacity to be empathetic and nurturing. Those kids will grow up not wanting to (a) abuse people in their life, or (b) abuse people who are not in their life, eg football players (or actors, or whoever else)

Another way of putting this is: Football is basically Corrie. It's fucking daft at the end of the day. It's just a way for us to keep ourselves occupied until we die. Any retard that treats it 100% seriously without any sense of irony needs to sort their fucking lives out. I've got family in hospital, we've got a lot of people using food banks, we have mental health services that do literally nothing right up until the point of someone trying to kill themselves - they'll literally do shit all up until that point, and often the only way you'll get seen anytime soon without paying £50 per hour for the privilege is to attempt to off yourself purely for that reason.

Point is, fuck off with your abuse. Sort out your trauma or get a sense of perspective or do whatever the fuck you need to do in order to place your following of a sports team in its proper category. That category is not life or death or nearly enough to justify verbally abusing people, either online or in person

I think you’ve misunderstood my comments pal. At no point have said that any of your words are vile or abusive. It was a general point about all the disgusting comments that are directed towards our own players by a significant number of posters. Apologies if I offended you but it wasn’t aimed at you👍
 

Whether he comes good remains to be seen but he won't be the first to take a while to get accustomed to the English style of play.
Having on featured in a couple of pre-season games it's far to early to judge him. Let's firstly see whether he's chosen in front one Lowe and then if so, how he does through to Xmas.
