Thank you Roymond

 

[Tynemouth Blade]

about time!

 

[hull-Blade]

Some respectable comments amongst that . Did chuckle though at “ I’d be disappointed to lose to a team with Dids and Sharp up front “

"“Sheffield Utd will be well up for this I imagine. They seemed to have a bit of a beef with us over the 2 cup games in 2017-18."

...did we? I was at the league cup game and it was like a friendly.

Billy Sharp Always Scores Against Us Klaxon

 

[GreasyChipBeattie]

“Sheffield have looked solid at the back but without any real spark. They make mistakes so we need to press them from the first minute. High and hard press and we come away with a 3 or 4 goal victory.”

Errr, no you don't.

“I could see us having about 83% possession for this game, not including counter attacks.”

Errr, no you won't.

 

[FMBlade1]

“These are a good side, but they play their best football when O’Connell and Basham can get on the overlap and confuse the opposition with overloads. Us playing three forwards high up the pitch could completely nullify that – get Barnes and Ayoze high and then it leaves Ricardo and Chilwell to ensure the wing-backs are pinned back.”

I think this is completely accurate. Leeds (in our home game) and Bristol City used this tactic against us successfully. Something to be wary of.

Thanks Roy

"none of their players would get in our team"

"Cardiff 2.0"

Should be smashing those 3 or 4

Tick, tick, tick. Amazing how self entitled this mob are. Bring it on.

Cheers Roy.

Here we go, a hint of Porkitis. None of our players are good enough for anyone else. Ever.

“If you pooled our squad and theirs to make a combined XI, I think that every position would be filled by a Leicester player. That said, this will still be a difficult game. I would much rather play these around Christmas when the promotion euphoria and PL optimism has been knocked out of them.”

[McGrath]

It's going to be stinking hot tomorrow. Will a high pressing game from both teams be hard work?

[JackSUFC]

“The post match views from Palace fans suggests that SUFC are basically Cardiff 2.0. They battle hard and close teams down well but not much else quality.”

Comments like this don't annoy me anymore, just have to chuckle at how unknowledgeable people who claim to follow football can be. At least other comments show knowledge and are fairly humble.

this is more like it. usual crap. hard working organised plucky northerners.. Burnley and Cardiff mentioned.. never heard of any of their players. none would get in our team
they're pretty good Leicester so this is a free hit for us but amazing sense of entitlement. ok they won the league and that was great but they're not Citeh or Liverpool by any stretch of the imagination. it's great how everyone is terrified of Billy.. 'he always scores against us' .. even teams he's never played against!

There was also another comment that I missed out that said we had pretty much the same team now as we did the time they beat us 4-1 a few season back.

Same team = 3 players*


*For the record the players who played then and will play on Saturday are Baldock, O'Connell and Lundstram.

 

[Kenilworth]

Thanks, Royster
They seem to be a knowledgable bunch, if that is fully representative. Wary but confident - as you should expect with the quality they have in the squad.
Not sure about them running out 3-4 winners but this will be a real test for our lads, tomorrow.
Looking forrard to it.

Like the fact that none of our lads would get into their team
Let’s see the post match view from tomorrow, then

 

[BigBed]

Glad I've got today off now, that made my morning throne perch, even more enjoyable than anticipated!!
Cheers Royston, top work as always!

A handful of comments don't define a fanbase.

If you read this and think "amazing how self-entitled this mob are" I'd love to know what you think when you read the other views from by Roygbiv. These are actually a pretty balanced and reasonable set of comments. Especially considering Leicester are comfortably one of the better teams in the league now. I think we should all know by now you'll never get a full set of completely reasonable and rational football fans.

 

[Rollerball]

How many teams trot out the same "billy sharp always scores against us" by my count he always scores against all 91 other league clubs

 

[Ldn_Rd_Blades]

Wait till that guy finds out how big and bruising our overlapping centre backs are

i think all teams are a self entitled bunch. some however are more so than others.. usually smaller outfits who think they're top six (any division). over the years i've noticed self delusion in certain teams. we all know who they are. Leicester aren't the worst by any stretch of the imagination

 

[Blade&Snuff]

Thanks Roy

 

[HD8 Blades]

Hard working / Physical/ Sheffield

Bingo!

 

[Greasy Chap Butty]

One or two 'hardworker' comments, but on the whole they looked a decent set of comments. They are optimistic, but respectful of the difficult task we will be.
I'm really looking forward to this, as our Prem tasks step up another small notch.
Cheers Royston.

Cheers Roydrew.

Apart from the couple of asinine Cardiff and Burnley comparisons a pretty fair bunch of comments.

 

[IOM Blade]

Good comments, but they one about Bournemouth being punished for not finishing us off is bollocks. The only shot they had after taking the lead was the non-free kick in the last min.

 

[Rusty view]

Fair comments....just for old times sake Nailed of defeat.

 

[zablade]

Thanks Roy

A really refreshing lack of deluded comments, was expecting more Billy big time Bollocks if I’m honest.
