Combined Sheffield XI 24/25 season

[Irv]

Stumbled across this work of genius on Porktalk..
Where to start?
It got me thinking, who if any would you take for our first XI from the darkside.
Only the goalie and maybe Bernard at CB for me.
Thoughts?

Those thirteen-toed-fucks, over at S5, wouldn’t know the difference between a diamond and a polished turd.

How then, are they going to tell the difference between good players in a team pushing for promotion and donkey-journeymen who will do well to survive relegation?

Let them lick each others ring-pieces, until the season starts and reality kicks in. We can then laugh at Filthy Wendy as her deluded fans crawl back under their Parson Cross rocks.

As it stands their keeper would make a combined XI but beyond that it's hard to see how any of theirs would oust any of ours.

I say their keeper, he's actually Brighton's.

It had to be a wind up, when was the last time any of their players got sold for 10million plus, never mind their academy. Just jokers. UTBFTP.

Other than Max Lowe, I have no idea who they've got. At all. They could have signed Mbappe this summer and I'd have no idea. I've far more productive things to do.

As such, I'll say whatever our starting 11 is tomorrow night. Sorted.

Never. Record sale remains Darko Kovačević in 1996 (widely believed to be £7m*). Second is Lucas Joao, third Steve Bruce.

*Wikipedia would suggest that this is down to exchange rate fluctuations and that Wednesday accepted a £2.5m bid from Sociadad and got a further £2m when Kovačević made his big-money move to Juventus in 1999.

When I saw the title of the thread I thought oh no, this is the exact sort of thread the pigs would post, being over confident in their own players only to be embarrassed by the end of the season. Turns out I was correct.

You would. They’d have gone door-to-door telling everyone. “Excuse me sir, I just wonder if I could borrow a minute of your time to talk about the massive”

‘Bannan walks into their team’
‘I’d take O’Hare over Windass (!?!?!)- just’

 

[aBladeInTheNorthernSky]

is he genuinely saying Bannan walks into our team ahead of Hamer?

You'd have thought they signed Mbappe with some of their predictions not a 30 year old Jamal Lowe

Combined squad:

 

[Stewy]

Barry Bannan plus any 10 ...

Barry Bannan plus any 10 ...

Are you suggesting Bannan takes the spot over one of our midfielders?

 

[Pintor75]

These are folk who think Carlton Palmer is one of the best players ever

 

[Mario1889]

I don’t think any of their players would make the bench, never mind the starting 11.

They are a third division side who only escaped relegation last season because they got very lucky with the manager. Rohl can only work so many miracles though and sooner or later the distinct lack of quality in their side will catch up with them and the turd that is Sheffield Wednesday football club will finally be flushed back to the lower leagues again where they belong.
