My take ...

Good read as usual. Can't be anything but feel positive today we are moving up the table and the team showing signs of improvement big or small game after game

Brewster and McBurnie have had too many chances to show us they are worth their price tag. Time to move them on in January. Help finance the Barca kid which seems to be back on. Can't but help feel Slav gave Brewster last chance playing him all match. Often he looked behind pace. One shot straight at the keeper, one shot in row BB that might have scored points in another sport yet again.

Feel sorry for him but he just doesn't fit.

Fair enough scores and a good report...

Apart from Brewster’s score, there’s no way he was any worse than a 5/10 - I gave him a 6 personally, also £26m?! Come on man what’s the point in inflating his price just to try and prove how much of a waste of money he was?
Click to expand...
The truth is that we all need to forget the price tag. What is done is done. He's our player, with 4 years left on his contract. He's a 21 year old player who had a really poor year last year in a terrible team. It's the first time in his life when his football career stopped it's previously constant ascent. He looks lost to me. Hopefully he can find a role in this squad and start to build his confidence back
 
Generally answering to some points.
I feel Osborn has been part of the renaissance post-Luton but like everyone on our books for longer than a season or two comes under the old adage "if he was any good, he'd be at Liverpool (or whoever) now". Ergo, I don't expect 46 games of consistency from most players in our squad. I like him - wasn't his best game for us today but works well on the left in front of RND.
Thought CH had a good game - different to Norwood. Less ping, more "effort" or probably fairer "involvement". That said Norwood has been back to some of his best post-Luton. Happy to have both options as it stands.
I feel like I've spent the last god knows how long waiting for Brewster to come good. When he found himself starting, I had my usual high hopes/cross everything in the hope he will score only to be frustrated once more. One thing that did strike me... as we've all seen, he has been given the first 60 or the last 15 minutes to score, break his league duck and open the floodgates to being the new Brian Deane [NOTE: many will remember Deano's goal drought and distinctly under-confident performances broken by getting his name on the scoresheet at Stamford Bridge when the ball went in off his arse. I think I've said every game "he just needs the ball to deflect in off his arse to get rid of the stigma" about Brewster]. For most part of the game, he was ineffective and resorting to last season/first part of this season's gambit of no-one-is going-to-set-up-a-goal-for-me shooting from distance to little effect (though mostly straight at the goalie than hitting row Z/the advertising hoardings). I'm losing heart now though. I wish he'd realised that after the last few games, our new rampaging attacking midfield lead by MGW will set him one up if he gets in the right area. I'm sure I might have one or two excuse cards left for him but today they were definitely in my other trouser pocket.
which brings us to MGW. I text my kids in our family group chat on deadline day and asked if they'd read his comments on signing. I had big hopes based on his enthusiastic comments and have not been disappointed. I wonder if Wolves will take Berge (and Brewster) for him.
Overall today. Derby game, niggly, high tempo, great end to end stuff in the first half. Got a bit sick of their behaviour at corners, so glad we punished them specifically on two occasions. All in all, very pleased with the progress post-Luton. Not afraid to mention the play offs already - daring to dream of top two.

Pompps,

Always look forward to reading your "takes", but what you say about Berge is a little unwarranted.

Do you have any ITK info about what the "pull" was/is/felt?

Maybe because it happened so late, it was just a case of expedience, about being very cautious about our best player given the situation your hero JO'C - our ex-best player - now finds himself in: having been told, once too often, to go out and defend Wilder's ego until the last breaking tendon!

At the end of the day, I'm sure Berge has all the strength to lift you up by the ear, but is far too educated to do so...
Click to expand...

There's no information, save from a passing comment of 'hamstring problem' on Sky.

I - amongst a whole cohort of supporters I am sure - are a bit unimpressed that after spending a lot of cash on a midfielder who was supposed to own a great deal of footballing pedigree (save most of us have to google who the fuck he was when we were linked with him) have seen vestiges of 'potential' in him given he's been at the club and drawing a wage for the best part of two years now. Many comments suggest he is unfamiliar and ponderous in his playing style for the English game, some are disappointed with his injury and conditioning, and that for a long time last season when we really needed him, he was on the treatment table. If he is that fragiile, what the fuck were we doing researching and signing him in the first place? Is the English game and system too much for him?

I get the 'cautious' bit, but we can't wrap this supposedly gifted player in cotton wool else he becomes either a Brewster (clueless), a McBurnie (ineffective) or a Moussett (pointless). Berge providing the drive forward with his supposed mercurial skill will be the diffeence between us getting something out of this season or is simply withering and dying.

Hourihane was only an improvement on Norwood due to his set piece delivery. I thought he was poor in general play. Sloppy passing at times and no real drive. Hopefully he picks up a bit.

Brewster was about 5/10. Started on the right but drifted into the middle alot and didn't make runs off the ball to get into good positions going forward. We moved MGW fully to the right hand side in the second half.Seems a bit lost and waiting for the ball to come to him. As far as I am concerned the only place to play him is in a front 2 and then see if he can cut the mustard.
He does need to show more effort and looks lazy at times.

Baldock had his hands full all day and RND looks like he can be beaten easily when he is defending.

MGW was excellent and really tries to make an impact.
Overall good result against a poor team....we take it and move on.....hopefully we can keep building momentum.

Pleased with today's performance. Hull are amongst a string of teams we have played recently who we 'should' beat yet, like lowly Luton, were we to play like we did against them, they could embarrass us badly.

Key changes today made the difference, some good, some bad. Norwood on the bench, Hourihane in, unfortunately Ndaiye not well and a last minute swap out of Berge for Brewster and therefor a lineup change meant we looked okay, in control, but far from settled. Okay, thank fuck we didn't field the utter footballing liability that is Robinson* and wewere forced into a last minute change thanks to Berge getting injured during the warm up. How the flying fuck does that happen, by the way? With the intense, expensive surgery what kept him out of the team (but well paid) last year and the expensive physio and biometric conditioning top-level professional athletes like he receive. how the fuck do you get injured doing some stretching and warm ups and cone work designed to actually stop you getting injured during the actual game? The fucker is made by McVities, isn't he? Last week, comes on, shows us some promise, this week, gets crocked during the warmup and doesn't even play. Like Moussett, he's another great signing by Wilder, isn't he?

Anyway I was a bit dismayed at the chances popped across their area and no one but Billy there or thereabouts gambling and some dead sloppy passing from the likes of Davies, and particularly Osborn meant we didn't quite have it all our own way, this against a pretty abject Hull side down on their luck. Billy's goal was well crafted and taken and when you think that MGW was possibly at primary school when Billy started scoring goals like that for us and others it shows how well the Wolves loanee reads the experienced players to get the ball to them. Did think the penalty was a red card, and it was a decent save from the spot kick but we deserved our lead at half time and it was no surprise Slav didn't change anything. Wolves however brought on the shithousing Honeyman and Cannon and we capitalised on their concentration on such gash play when Eegs ditched his marker to nod us two up. Same thing twelve minutes later in fact - Honeyman practically lifting MGW off the deck, the dirty fucking pisstreak, and Eegs just did his job while they all argued amongst themselves.

Did think that the back four is still adapting to the missing centreback. George was having a torrid time all match against Lewis Potter and so it came to pass when the little fucker stole in front of him at the back stick. But elsewhere I thought we (generally) controlled thinks well and deserved the three points.

Olsen 6/10: Standard saves, caught underneath a long cross to the back stick though. Early days for him to settle in
Baldock 5/10: Ran a bit ragged by Lewis Potter. Is still adapting and doesn't venture up the pitch as much as RND on the other flank
Egan 7/10: Two very well taken goals and very good marshalling at times although Hull didn't offer much of a threat until Slater came on and then Egan loses a whole half mark for failing to control for their disallowed goal
Davies 6/10: A bit sloppy at times. He is not Jack O'Connell. Non one has been as good as JO'C have they?
RND 6/10: Another one who looks sloppy and a bit unfocussed at times in possession. He does support the attack down the left flank but gets himself boxed in easily
Hourihane 7/10: Thought he made a difference in the centre. Nothing outstanding, just a lot more composed and confident both on and off the ball than Norwood
Fleck 6.5/10: In and out of the game. When 'in', he is great and sees the space opening up in front of him. When 'out', it's ponderous, dismal and backward facing.
Brewster 2/10: Dreadful. Again, I am struggling to see what twenty six million quid has bought here. His control, his shooting, his interplay and his passing is so pisspoor. Okay, he was dropped into Berge's place in the RAMF role but he should be running at oppositions and being that person who gambles on the ball across the box. A few times the ball was centred today and Billy is running near post, no fucker on the back stick. We haven't got wingbacks like Freeman any more to get on the end of that - in this formation it is the RAMF job to steal in and get the goal. And I see him simply drifting about in midfield, effectively 'out of the game'.
Gibbs-White 8/10: Another bright spark performance. Christ what I would give to see HRH flog McBurnie, Brewster and Breadstick Berge and make a bid for this chap
Osborn 6/10: Another typical bustling about but not really achieving much performance from him. This is becoming a bit of a norm and to be honest, is a bit wasteful. He doesn't (really) get a great deal done for all his exertions. And he isn't a LAMF is he?
Sharp 7/10: Loses a whole point for missing the penalty, but gave us an hour and a bit of proper centre forward stuff. Just want him to go on forever, please.

Guediora 5/10: Pointless striping of Cannon to get booked on his debut but he looked capable, calm and controlled and isn't in a hurry to get shut as soon as the ball is at his feet
McBurnie 6/10: Changed the point of the attack somewhat
Basham (unmarked as he wasn't on long enough) Nice, deserved reception from the fans

A decent, workmanlike dispatching of Hull City who a few seasons ago were punching way above their weight, but are seemingly destined to struggle.

Frankly couldn't give a fat fuck if Slav fielded a team of up and comers on Tuesday against the Scummers and we get dildoed endwards and lengthways. The Milk Cup is of no importance to us here. We should also dispatch Derby County next week and ready ourselves for a key game against Boro afterwards to build momentum.

Seems like the Blades are back, though ...

Disagree with the Brewster mark. I thought he was very good for the first 20 mins and then faded.
Not good but better than 2/10

Brewster should have been running in on the right on several crosses which went begging - poor kid is fuckin useless , never in right place , never makes the right runs to give himself a chance of scoring - then he resorts to hitting long range shots straight at GK - will never score a league goal , has had 33 games to try - fuck him off to Beerschott or the Beer Engine or fuckin anywhere
 
I tried to follow Brewster when attacks were developing and his positional sense is woeful. Ndiaye showed how to create space for a pass or cross. Brewster looks lost. You can see he doesn't run into a channel or fill in an empty space or make himself available for any telling pass. I was yelling at my TV screen for him to drop to the back post on a few occasions. Where did the crosses go? He needs a sixth sense. Ask Mr Sharp where he got his.
 
Agree with most of that Pomps.
Particularly Brewster. I posed the question on one of the Blades facebook pages half way through the second half asking why he was still on the pitch?

Some of the replies astounded me:

'Thought he played well'. ' Brewster had a great game. Are you for real'. 'Leave him alone, that was his best game for us'. 'Played well today...got stuck in and linked up well'. 'Clown of the day goes to Ken'. 'Brewster put a shift in'. 'Why. Just fuckin why you fucking plank'.

All I can think is they were watching a different game to me. For the first 10 minutes I thought he looked like a player. After that, anonymous and unproductive. No nowhere near the price tag he came with.
 
I stopped reading at “Brewster dreadful”when he was one of our better players. He looked sharp and played some good stuff today, but let’s not miss an opportunity to say he’s wank eh.

Largely agree but RND is too high a mark for me. He keeps running into cul-de-sacs and then doesn’t appear to know how he got there (or how to get out). We are more effective now with ball carriers surging through middle then distributing rather than pointless runs down the wing. Having said that how bloody great is it to expect rather than pray for goals?! Still don’t like the tip tapping about with our goalkeeper - we ain’t Barca just yet!

Beginning to really like this Blades team again and loving the Slav interviews - I really can’t disagree with anything he says (mainly because they are completely incomprehensible to me!). Looking forward to when he starts inserting South Yorkshire phrases in the style of Julio Geordio….

Best moment of the afternoon for me was Egan’s second when the cheating shithousery of the Hull defenders well and truly received it’s just desserts :)

I usually have some sympathy for your viewpoints but the above post is bordering on the ridiculous maybe you will be happy when we are back to signing £500k players. Berge is not another Mousette who has never completed a 90mins and you well know it he was out injured half of last season which is hardly his fault. This season he is coming back from that injury playing twice a week and for Norway as well it is only right if he feels a cramp or something not to risk him. We all saw how it turned out for Fleck and JOC who were injured in the first lockdown both were rushed back to try to get us in Europe in hindsight that might not have been the smartest move JOC has hardly played a game since and Fleck has been out of sorts for a year with signs only now that he might be getting back to John Fleck rather than Jimmy. I'm not sure either what Brewster or McBurnie have to do with Berge being injured today either other than they were also at one point our record signings.

Breaks my fucking heart, so it does.

Tell me. How many goals did he score today?

How many goals did one of our centre backs score today?

Give you a clue: It's twice as many as Brewster has scored, since he came to the club.

And Sharp obviously gets a 7, despite doing nothing. He scored a goal you’d expect him to with the amount of time and space he had, missed a penalty and should have been sent off, but let’s ignore all that for now.

He also got taken down for the penalty.
Which shows that despite his limitations in pace and size is is adept enough to get into the right positions to score.

Good read as usual. Can't be anything but feel positive today we are moving up the table and the team showing signs of improvement big or small game after game

Brewster and McBurnie have had too many chances to show us they are worth their price tag. Time to move them on in January. Help finance the Barca kid which seems to be back on. Can't but help feel Slav gave Brewster last chance playing him all match. Often he looked behind pace. One shot straight at the keeper, one shot in row BB that might have scored points in another sport yet again.

Feel sorry for him but he just doesn't fit.

McBurnie was getting no service from one of the worst ever premier league midfields last season and hasnt had a run of games since we got a better midfield back in a league where he has a proven goalscoring record. Got to give him a run of games before any criticism is valid

A 1/10 is the lowest rating you could give a player. I imagine it’s probably impossible to score a 1, and if it is possible, it’s likely a once in a football fan’s lifetime event.

You’re ranking Brewster marginally higher than that. Which is utter nonsense.

When you take into account his wages I'd say £26m is about right for the cost of brewster to date

If, as we found out recently, Lowe was on £15k a week as a back up player.. Someone coming in as a 'star' striker is probably on around £30k to £40k per week, so the overall outlay on brewster over his five year contract is probably somewhere between £30 and £35m
