Can only presume fleck and mcburnie are carrying injuries

 

[bartman]

MCB isn't moaning or arsing about regards a contract though is he? And last I checked, he doesn't think he's better than us.

And when did Lunny say he was better than us ? He is allowed to ask for more money. Why is that a problem ?

Hopefully he and the other 10 play well today and we get a positive result

 

[CoatesyBlade]

"I have made it clear about John, I would love him to sign a new contract, it's no criticism and he might do, you never know”

"If it's his decision to run his contract down then it's his decision, no ill-feeling”

"John's a good character and there is no downside to him not giving anything less than 100 per cent”

"He won't get in our team if he doesn't, I won't pick him. Supporters need to be comforted that, as always, I will do the right thing for the football club”

"I am not going to play a player who is not committed. I will make that decision”

"We don't sign bad characters who are not committed. John has not been a moment's trouble and I understand that he might want that deal and that his agent wants that deal, which is fair enough, that's the negotiation between the club and the player and agent."

- Chris Wilder.

so, for fuck sake, pack it in with the Lunny bashing.

I don’t like him as a player, I don’t like his attitude, I don’t like that he has messed this club about... he’d be absolutely nothing with CWAK so for me he can do one!

 

[Nade]

Quite like the dark green kit

His on pitch attitude is always good

Where's VAR when Burke is denied a goal scoring opportunity.

Where's VAR when Burke is denied a goal scoring opportunity.

Unbelievable- not even referred

 

[silver blade]

My pig of a brother in law says we wont score in a month of Sundays so I suppose 0-0 will be the best we can hope for

 

[Mojo]

Egan got sent off for less than what Luiz done on Burke

 

[Jon P]

The colour of the socks makes it look like the lads have their bare legs out

 

[232 Bramall Lane]

Where's VAR when Burke is denied a goal scoring opportunity.

Clear shirt pull.
At other end would have been looked at no doubt

 

[mcbladeface]

Arsenal diving squad is up and running

 

[Lawrence]

Thought you are not supposed to put your flag up Now?
Unless it’s United

 

[OrderOfStGeorge]

What is the point in VAR Burke was pulled back it is a fucking joke.

 

[Cassius Kray]

Disappointed to see Norwood left out again. He was a key player in our excellent performances last season. Berge is great but he's a very different player and the I'd much rather see him on the right.

 

[Mojo]

Burke should have just fallen over when Luiz pulled his shirt, I don't like cheating but it's the only way in this bent league

 

[1987]

I'd like to see McGoldrick put a performance in today, he's been a bit of a passenger

 

[Jon P]

Zero creativity

 

[SUFCinks]

Opening 20, we havent really had any influence on the game. Need to get on the ball a bit more.

really tiring of aimless long balls when we spend 20 mins trying to get the ball we are just handing back possession. Mcburnie is our only forward player capable of getting anything out of those punts up field. Its also boring to watch and ineffective.

 

[HeySethUTB]

I wish we would have some confidence when playing from deep, these long balls don’t seem to stick nine times of ten. We have more quality than this. Its just going to keep coming back and build pressure.

 

[BlairBlade]

Who's our captain today?

 

[Wards]

Who's our captain today?

Egan

 

[Lawrence]

Should have started with McB and Burke? Didz not doing it for me?

 

[essexblade73]

Will be ever win an aerial ball? Keeper hoofs it and it goes straight back to arsenal

 

[FriethBlade]

What is our plan here other than containment? If its to hit them on the break with the long ball why isn't McBurnie on the pitch?

 

[BlairBlade]

Egan

Thanks

 

[Wards]

McGoldrick has been rank thus far

 

[SUFCinks]

79 passes to their 270 so far. More composure needed

 

[petcharlie]

You are correct mate you have to cheat in this league otherwise you get shit on.We should sign Tom Daley he would be our very own Grealish.

 

[Lawrence]

Nothing in mid-field it’s gonna be a long day
