What the absolute fuck are these crosses? It's like a toddler trying to kick a ball ffs

 

[FriethBlade]

Cannon loses ball they score. CW is a total plank even picking him

He spent 10m on him so hes determined to prove hes worth a place....Brewster mark 2 without the injuries

 

[Hockey'sBeard]

They changed to 4 at the back about 10 mins ago. You saw wilder hold up 4 fingers and Ogbene pushed up a bit

Was it 2 fingers each hand?

Brewster is 10x the player Cannon is, and he was shit

 

[Bladethebrian]

Need to change the shape - swap a striker for midfield plus Brooks for Ogbene

 

[Willglynning]

Utterly woeful.

 

[YES Blade]

We,re piss poor at back..a good side will punish us.

We’re even worse going forward! 4 goals this season is fucking pathetic

 

[Willglynning]

Brewster is 10x the player Cannon is, and he was shit

Cannon is genuinely a contender for one of the worst players I've ever seen in a Blades shirt. Utterly dogshit in every game and yet still gets picked nearly every time.

The sooner he's fucked off out of the club the better.

 

[JasonEllis]

You don't need to be a tactico or come up with fancy analysis, we're just rather shit

 

[Esteban Cambiasso]

Cannon makes it's so easy for the opposition defenders, it's like they are playing in the garden with their kid brother

 

[originaltrueblade]

45 mins too late please get rid he is absolutely garbage

Absolutely agree

 

[Iffy Onuora's Shiny Head]

I'm getting really really angry that Cannon is still getting picked. He has been here 9 months and shown absolutely nothing. He looks like someone you might play 6 aside with after work.

I'd rather play Oné, or one of the youth players than him. He has zero attributes and worse of all no heart and no football brain. It's not his fault we paid 10m for him but it is the managers fault to keep persisting with him. Take him out of the squad for a few weeks to show him where his career is going to end up.

 

[MKY]

Having canon is like playing with 10 men from the off. We’re truly fucked if Wilder is going to persist with him.

 

[Bladedog]

We’re even worse going forward! 4 goals this season is fucking pathetic

Don't worry..cannon doing good things in training.

 

[originaltrueblade]

Don’t pick Comedian Cannon anymore dreadful

 

[Harry's Game]

The gamble to start with 10 men fails to pay off.

Might improve if we go to 11 in the second half

 

[The Crab]

It’s actually cruel to Cannon playing him. He’s nowhere near what’s needed. The fee isn’t his fault.

This cannot go on but it will, “chrisseh” wants to prove a point

 

[coaxingstar71]

If anyone is watching on SUTV, Asaba has called it on Cannon. Not one attribute to shows that he's a striker and it's like playing with 10 men.

 

[IdLiketoRogerMoore]

Getting done down the flanks. Who is playing left side to support McCallum he's getting little help. Again question marks about the formation.

Was about to say - they've realised they can double up out wide and we're overloaded... Wilder hasn't adapted to this...

 

[bakeblade]

Brewster is 10x the player Cannon is, and he was shit

Asaba slagging Cannon off and quite right too.
Total mystery why he's even in the squad, never mind starting

 

[IdLiketoRogerMoore]

"Does Cannon realise it's a contact sport? He needs to man up"

Love you Carl.

 

[Ukkonen]

I feel we're missing pace, creativity and a decent striker - so some big gaps to fill.

 

[Pintor75]

Still think we can get something from this, they're not great, need to get Brooks & Campbell on for Ogbene & Cannon, though Wilder's got no 8dea of his formation

 

[Greenblades]

I don’t think Cannon touched the ball in that half? I was asking for two up front but clearly this team cannot play that way. Jesus we are so bad.

 

[FredZeppelin]

An absolute shower of shit from front to back.

Ogbene is utterly useless both in and out of position. What the hell does anyone see in him? Tanganga, Mee and McGuinness just cannot defend together. We look like conceding every time the opposition attack, even Blackburn who are attrocious!

Cannon isn't even nuisance value and just doesn't look arsed at all, Ings is invisible and I barely saw Soumare in the entire half.

Peck and O'Hare are he only two who can hold their heads up high. We are losing to Blackburn who themselves look terrible.

Embarrassing.

utb

 

[skegblade]

If wilder cant see we are overun down the left hes not watching the game

 

[Working Class Hero]

Cannon is an absolute embarrassment. Most fans want two up front though, which you can't have without Cannon playing a significant part. Many were also saying Campbell should be dropped, this game is showing why it's not that simple.

 

[fifty shades of blade]

Cannon reminds me of the old days playing on Saturday v the team at the bottom of the league. They usually had a ponce up front who was soft as shite, no pace, no control and mince for brains

I agree on Ogbene. I think some people have got this idea that he's useful because they've been told he's fast. He's bobbar.

It's on his touchline too....
