United defended very well (goal excluded!) and we gave City a game.

If only the Fleck shot had gone in!

Agree mate. Apart from goal, they grew in confidence. If only one of them efforts in last 5/10 mins had gone in.

 

[Mike325]

WE HAD A GO. UTB

 

[FMBlade1]

Absolutely, well done Blades today

 

[JPBrods]

If only the Fleck shot had gone in!

Agonising. Such a wonderful hit and Ederson is beaten. More and more looking like the side we know though.

 

[Sheffsteel]

Agree....Man City are currently in brilliant form....by far the best team in this league.

Losing 0-1 to easily one of the best teams in world football in their own back yard is impressive.

 

[BangorBlade]

Not steamrollered

 

[AnstonBlade1]

3 points from the two Manchester clubs away is a good return.

 

[Geordie Blade]

We played it as well as we could. Some might say that we should have ‘had a go earlier’, but that would have been madness. The best bet was to stay in it and then take risks with ten minutes to go. We could have nicked it but, equally, we could have conceded a couple in that late spell.

Well done Blades. No shame. Onto the next game.

 

[Iceybabey]

Good to us put shits up em a bit at the end. Thought McBurnie caused em some problems n all when we went long.

 

[dc_blade]

Very pleasing performance. A point would’ve been robbery but we defended superbly and had them rattled. Lots of positives including another good performance from Fleck, who might be playing himself back into form. But most of all—so pleased for Ramsdale. Hope he takes a lot of confidence from today.

Last 10 we did, 1st 80 was all about keeping us in the game

I thought it had. Oh so, so close.

 

[Bearlie]

Ramsdale few decent saves ....

 

[HeySethUTB]

Its not just hard work and staying in the game we are seeing now. We are actually having a go and playing football. Can’t fault the lads, I just wish we had played like this in the first half of the season and we would be comfortably mid table.

WELL DONE BLADES!!

 

[Davalon]

Yeah lots of Proud Boys on here tonight

 

[Steelcitysenior]

I thought it had. Oh so, so close.

We scared the shite out of the poor dog leaping out of the chairs.

 

[AdamSufc1997]

Not bad but not the greatest onto tuesday

 

[Cheesebored]

Set up not to lose and nearly achieved it. It's a hard watch though.

 

[SwitchBLADE Smiles]

We didn’t get steamrolled by (arguably) the best team in world football today & only lost because of 1 properly dodgy bit of defending.

3 points from Old Trafford & The Etihad is an excellent return & we could have had more! Lots of positives IMO.

 

[Pedro Verde]

If it hadnt been for the fuck up between Ampadu Bogle and Basham who knows

I did think Bogle was poor today got caught out a few times all he had to do for the goal was jockey the City player

Really? Goal apart he was great. Playing on the wrong side of the pitch. I thought he did really well.

 

[HuddersfieldBlade]

Yeah lots of Proud Boys on here tonight

Mods - nothing to see here

Playing out of position.. I think he had a quality game. Does make a mockery of wilders "square pegs in square holes" though.

 

[Houston_Blade]

Yeah lots of Proud Boys on here tonight

That’s Vital!

 

[HighfieldBlade]

It's testament to how much we've improved that city limped over the line in the end. Despite the loss, that was a huge confidence-boost for us today.

Bogle was out of his normal position and is still learning how to be a Premiership player

 

[stringjunior]

I must have watched a different game. I didn't see us do anything of note. We had zero threat going forward and defended ok

 

[Blade.com]

Two great performances this week. The season starts on Tuesday. Everyone's writing us off ; bit of faith and we are not down yet. What a absolute shame we will not be there on Tuesday night; The Lane would rocking. UTB.
You can see it now Sir Chris with Peroni in hand doing his interview on the last day of the season when the Blades beat the drop.
