I think it’s fairly likely that they’ll go up though. They’re outperforming the league on a lot of stats and there isn’t a Leeds or Burnley (or competent Blades team) this season to stop them.

First time I've seen them properly this season and I'm surprised how direct they are. No messing about at the back, just give it to the keeper who launches it. Obviously working for them

Not the best game Coventry tonight?

 

[Gimli]

Hope Cov can beat these Hollywood upstarts tbf

 

[Roygbiv]

Quite impressed with both of these to be honest.

the caants, oh shit I also hate wrexham as well...

 

[fifty shades of blade]

That jap lad for cov and kabore for wrexham are gonna murder burrows for pace

 

[Bladesthorpe]

Who's the big lad up front for Wrexham, two goals already

 

[Bladesthorpe]

Make that 3, Kieffer.

 

[AWetFlannel]

Yeah they're up.

Fat Frank finally found out how to manage

After undeservedly walking into his 20th plum job, one is finally going well.

Until tonight...

Both have have recruited well and have solid champ players.

If that’s what they do they’ll get 3+ against us.
We can’t defend direct football for toffee.

Steady on there

 

[SRBlade]

These two will murder us home and away I reckon

That 60p was my balance. I'd love to claim some kind of genius, but it was right after his second

Moore got a hatrick playing alongside another striker. This is why good strikers turn bad when we sign them. Wilder needs to be braver if he wants us to move up the table. I bet Cannon will start scoring when he moves on.

This, but also, we don't create anywhere near enough chances. Prime Alan Shearer would struggle to get goals the way we've been set out in the past couple of years.

I knew Moore would get goals elsewhere. Also, like you, strongly suspect Cannon might come good elsewhere.

It's one of the reasons I keep schtum and don't join in on the threads laying into strikers (which seems to happen every time we don't win). I'm not saying they're totally blameless, it's a collective effort, but there have been bigger problems (not least with how we've set out). We need to be more adventurous, certainly need to create more chances, or we really are in big trouble this season.

We are better with one up top
What’s the point in having 2 stood doing nothing
Due to the turgid sliw static shyte we have coming forward

 

[Wards]

We are better with one

Yet last season I thought we looked much more effective with two up, especially towards the end of the season when we took the handbrake off a little.

100% and Cannon is another who just doesn't fit to how we play at all he has something -all the historical evidence is there

It’s not direct like that all the time tho
But when they are direct watch the movement off the ball

In fairness, you could see Moore had qualities that made him a potentially very decent championship striker.

As for Cannon, well god knows I tried to defend him, but to score goals you have to actually get into positions where you might score a goal - I appreciate people without their UEFA A licence might struggle with that and it is, pretty advanced thinking even if I say so myself…
