Evans or Llundstram?

[ReeceofBDTBL]

Much like my ex and her taller/better looking boyfriend, my stomach sinks everytime i see these two together.

Its got to be one or the other, so who should keep Coutts spot warm for the next month?

 

[Eric Cartman]

I'm certain of one thing and one thing alone.

Llundstram is miles better than Lundstram.

 

[Dellas Cowboys]

Is this another of our players making a bid for the Welsh squad?

 

[snootyfenooty]

Neither. Basham and Woodburn with Stearman in Bash's slot.

 

[Carlton Blade]

Evans is technically better, looks slimmer than last year and at least plays his role (needs work obviously)

I never have any idea where Lundstram is supposed to be playing, he still looks too heavy and he has just never seemed to get going

 

[Sean Thornton]

Much like my ex and her taller/better looking boyfriend, my stomach sinks everytime i see these two together.

Its got to be one or the other, so who should keep Coutts spot warm for the next month?

He's taller and better looking than her?

 

[s4-blade]

Lundstram is much better than Evans. Lundstram is still not good enough. Coutts can’t come back quick enough.

 

[Jonboy60]

That positional player (championship standard) is not here yet.

 

[Kozzy_is_my_Dad]

He's taller and better looking than her?

Yes, both.

 

[Deadly_D'Jaffo]

These 2 playing together are a liability and dont offer much in possession.

if we absolutely have to play 1 at side of Coutts and/or Flex , i'd lean towards sticking with Lunny.

 

[Bladesman]

Evans because he can actually shoot sometimes.

The midfield til Coutts is back should be: Evans - Duffy - Fleck

Lunny on the bench as cover.

 

[Ricky]

Evans is tidier on the ball and plays the position better. He can also deliver a decent ball into the box.

 

[Addison]

Neither give Leonard a go playing a more defensive midfielder role with Fleck and Duffy. No cover in front of the back three when we lose the ball. Not going to happen though expect same line up tomorrow.

 

[Isaw Joeshaw]

OP is flawed since there is no option for alternatives .

I go with Snooty's .

 

[Bladesman]

Neither. Basham and Woodburn with Stearman in Bash's slot.

Basham in midfield? Get the fuck out of here!

 

[hoylandblade]

neither

 

[snootyfenooty]

Basham in midfield? Get the fuck out of here!

Normally I would agree but he's infinitely better than the other two. He'd be OK if he was under strict instruction not to go past the half way line.

 

[FTPE]

I'm certain of one thing and one thing alone.

Llundstram is miles better than Lundstram.

And his Swedish alter ego Ljundstram tops them both.

 

[Bladesman]

Normally I would agree but he's infinitely better than the other two. He'd be OK if he was under strict instruction not to go past the half way line.

You can't guarantee that wouldn't happen. It was bad enough seeing him do a version swan lake in the opposition penalty box on Saturday.

 

[Sean Thornton]

Just someone better. Which is what we were saying last season.

 

[Eric Cartman]

Just someone better. Which is what we were saying last season.

I’d like Leonard to have a run until Coutts is back if we aren’t signing one

 

[Bashar Al Asaba]

They're both lamentably shite so I'll sit this one out. It's like choosing between herpes and syphillis.

 

[Esablade]

Evans is tidier on the ball

Apart from those unecessary sideways ‘worldy’-passes in his own half that he’s keen on...

 

[Lane Ender]

They're both lamentably shite so I'll sit this one out. It's like choosing between herpes and syphillis.

Got similar thoughts two of CW could be,s thats backfired

 

[IMABLADE]

Neither. Basham and Woodburn with Stearman in Bash's slot.

Or Egan on the right side, Stearman as central?

 

[snootyfenooty]

Or Egan on the right side, Stearman as central?

Yep, sounds about right.

 

[bricktop]

Evans eveytime for me.

Lundstram isn’t anywhere near the standard we need, and nor will he ever be.

 

[ReeceofBDTBL]

Think people are being way too harsh to say that both of them are ‘shit’.

Id rather we had Coutts back but as for confidently saying Leonard should start, people are rapidly forgetting the shower he turned out in midfield against Hull last year, not to mention not a single person has seen him run the show in midfield at championship level.

To say theyre both ‘shit’ is very unfair, especially given the midfield donkeys we’ve had over the last 20 years. Carruthers last year for example, turned out performances that one could confidently describe as ‘shit’

They're both lamentably shite so I'll sit this one out. It's like choosing between herpes and syphillis.

The question you ask about which sexually transmitted disease I prefer is difficult to answer..

However the notion that both players are shite I find crazy.
Both can frustrate at times but I’ve seen them have fine games in a Blades shirt.
Remember the Middlesbrough home game last season when Evans struck twice!? Scored an absolute worldy and we won 2-1
Lundstram can be a menace in midfield. He gets stuck in and makes strong tackles.

Give them a chance in whatever line-up. They’re young and I think will get better
