I think you're right about that. I must be honest, I thought we'd get done for pace a lot more this season and that players like O'Connell and Egan would be exposed. I don't think either are particularly fast or able to recover once someone goes past them. But their positioning is generally excellent and so is their level of commitment and we have pace in Baldock and Basham in particular, so it's all working out well so far. And of course, Stevens is emerging as an immense player in his own right. TBH I think he was the first player to really take advantage of being in the Premier league rather than looking scared of it. He seems to have got the attitude that "I'm good, and I'm going to show them what I can do". Whereas some of the others have been a bit nervous and apprehensive, but they are surely growing into it.

Badger, Hemsley, Flynn, Colquhon, Powell. They were the back 5 when I was a lad - and they were good - but collectively I think the current back 5 are better.

Egan in particular, is no slouch !!

When in Rome... So I'll talk like you arrogants.....

McBurnie was shite again today, so you bigger blades and deluded gets know nowt.

The only headers he won were defensive, he's a shocking first touch, doesn't win headers up front, lightweight and doesn't look a threat at all. So basically we have paid 20 mill for a reserve centre half. But yeah keep bumming up deluded fools.
 
Wilder has to take the blame here, he has spent nearly 30 million on two championship players who are clearly of championship, not premiership, quality. We really need to expand our scouting network we will not get value for money in the UK.

No sane person would slag McBurnie off.

Lots of plastics just turning up for the PL football.

Bet they weren't at Bury away or Walsall away in 2015/16.

Dont slag him off. Just dont know what he brings and I said this weeks before we signed him.

Opinion hasn't changed.

Like McBurnie and he’ll score goals given time. Thought he was good yesterday, especially first half. Fleck probably could’ve played him in second half for a great chance when he elected to shoot instead too and then we’d all be saying he was excellent.

As ever, Unitedites never fucking happy unless they’re slagging someone off 🙄

And they love an international break so it stays towards the top of the board.

Henderson wasn’t good enough ( again) last week, saved us today etc etc etc

Whereas mcburnie hasn't done anything at all. I'll call it out where I see it.
 
We looked very lightweight up front today. Not just McBurnie but Robinson too. However when we play a flat 3 theres only Fleck who moves forward with the ball which allows the opposing defence to play right up the backsides of our strikers.

We.need someone (Freeman?) who can run with the ball and beat a man and create space for the strikers.

We badly lack penetration when Lunny and Norwood play together. I think they may work against better sides when we need to keep it tight but against sides we can beat we need more attacking options. We had 61% possession but only 3 attempts on target.

Great point today but their keeper only had a couple of saves to make all game and they were longer distance shots straight at him.

When we could have had Maupay for the same price you have to wonder if our record transfer was value for money.

He's scored 2 more goals than McBurnie though, and the one today was about as gift-wrapped as they come, and the rest of the game he looked average. Made runs but not on the same wavelength, and passed when he should have shot to make it 4-0.

No way do I think McBurnie is worth what we paid, but with the service he's getting the rest of the team aren't doing him any favours.

He needs to get into being a Blade. It may well be a trendy brand. However NO Blade would ever wear such a thing. Can someone please ask him to get with the programme or move on quickly. I actually think he needs a new partner up top but this stuff does my head in.

It’s Drake’s clothing label ‘October’s Very Own’. He’d be better staying in & working on his first touch by trapping a sandbag.
 
You do despair at the intelligence of to-days football players. After letting the flak die down over pissing off a nation after calling his national team crap he now further compounds this by wearing a logo offensive to his own club supporters. Did he not think there wouldn't be a reaction to him posting this on social media? Adverse replies from Blades are already being sent. What next a pair of matching green and white hooped trousers just to get the hat trick and offend fans of his one remaining football allegiance.

I've supported him over the Clubs Communications team letting him down over the Scottish team comments but this is just plain stupid. He's becoming a bit of a PR disaster IMO and this will not help him improve his performances on the pitch. CW and co need to have a word.

I could not agree more with anyone. Is this guy just plain thick?
 
not having or wanting to have instagram what is it?
 
Ta, Looks like he needs to find his brain fast...
 
Some proper cretins on here judging by the previous messages.

Looks like mcburnie could be the new lundstram of last year.

Also could we get some suggestions as to what he’s allowed to wear ?

Maybe he should be going out in training gear ?
