Billy.........

[Champagneblade]

Not a chance, he clearly hasn’t looked match fit to start although he should surely be there now?

I like Mousset but what has he done for the Blades to deserve a start over Billy?

Just because he’s cost shy of £10M doesn’t mean he’s better or deserves a start, that isn’t directed at you by the way or anyone in particular.

I'd certainly say that Mousset, when fit, offers more than Robinson. He has at least the same pace if not more. He's physically very strong and unsettles defenders. Unlucky not to get credited the goal vs Chelsea and a crisp finish vs Everton. Think he's all we look for in a striker.

He was as unlucky as I was not to get credited with the goal at Chelsea.

Neither of us touched the ball.

Now his ban is over he has to be given his chance like all the others have had from last years promotion winning team..LOVE Wilder but I think he’s dropped a bollock leaving out our top goal scorer so far this season....he’d have buried some of those chances yesterday.

Billy/Mcburnie or Billy/ Didsy for Watford.

He has been having chances. In his last one he got a stupid red card. We all know he would have been coming on Saturday instead of Clarke.

He will get more chances but he has to do better with them.

Doesn't matter what the record books show , or the fact he didn't touch it -without him going for it , there's no goal , so in my mind , it's his.

Time for the return of Billy ASAP

 

[Niceguyeddie]

I like Mousset and think he offers something different but there is a big difference between ' looking every inch a Premier League player ' and having a natural ability to put the ball in the back of the net on a regular basis , which Billy Sharp has done throughout his career .

There is every reason to believe he still has that ability and to overlook it in favour of others who have not come anywhere close could be a big mistake , in my opinion .

Hasn't Billy sharp scored less goals in the premier League than mousset ?

 

[Baaaaaaa Blades]

Sharp is more than just a goal scorer, he makes things happen, he pulls people out of defence making room for others, he's the fox in the box, the talisman and he is the captain. It's no fluke that McG. had his best games when Billy is up there beside him and I'm sure others did too......

this 100%

he is known as a 'fox in the box' and he is this and has a excellent goal scoring record but he is far more and in the past few years he has developed his whole game brilliantly

as said above he pulls defences all over the place and bullies Cb's who are bigger and he should have no right to ! ( Leeds away for example, also was doing very well against S'ton before getting sent off ) he is also a very clever footballer now

for me Didsy and Sharp are a huge part of how we got in this league and deserve a shot together starting - def for home games , away possibly more mcburnie and robbo/moose as that is working but its great to have options
i will say also mcburnie for me had his best game on saturday

 

[FinchleyBlade]

I love Wilder but some of his decisions regarding Sharp (and Duffy) are very strange and don't make much sense, why was he always so eager to drop one or both of them when they have been so integral to our style of play and success?

That isn't saying much. Sharp looks a far better player than McBurnie in every department from what I've seen so far.

Billy = Needs to play satdy.

I think Wilder being tough on fan favourites like Duffs Sharp and even criticising Leon for his miss sends a message across the squad that he's not to be messed with. It makes managing the squad easier for CW.
He is in charge! Don't forget that! Its about leadership.

 

[Bennyand the Blades]

Billy is not as fast as Mousette but then again Billy has never been as fast as mousetet, in fact Billy has never ever been fast!!! That's why he'll do in this league what he's done in every league, score goals.
Because in the box you don't have to be fast you just need to be special and Billy is VERY SPECIAL.....

 

[JayGreen17]

And Robinson, Billy must be gutted to have lost his place to a striker that scored half as many as him in the same league last season... Billy has so much more to his game that Robinson has yet to learn, time for Billy to have his chance for me, the others can scrap it out, Robbo has had more than his chance.

Billy needs to be in the 6 yard box. That's where he causes the damage. But he needs service.

Mousset can provide that service with his pace down the channels. He needs service.

Lundstram, Norwood and Fleck have proved they can provide that service.

This should be the away game formula as it puts less pressure on wing backs, centre backs overloading at the top of the pitch.

In addition it's a classic fast break when home teams feel obliged to take the game to us.
