Barlaser might be gone but they still have the Irish lad Ogbene and they have Richard Wood too

Expect a hard game but if McBurnie starts we'll win

 

[ancientblade]

2 - 2 draw

 

[BladesOnToast]

We could give them a 2-goal head start and still win this by a canter. The match at BL was a blip. This'll be a comfortable straightforward win for United.

love a derby, new york is 1 of the nicer new builds ive been to , although im expecting a tough game, rotherham in good run of form since that that FA Cup shocker, doing us alot of favours v our rivals, beating Blackburn & away point v watford. i was chatting to rotherham supporting colleague at work. he saying that since ipswich game they had a team meeting & since then they look a completely different team

although i remember 2018 or 2019 away game, thank god henderson had a stormer, as they battered us, i remember thinking when basham score what i thought was a late winner. we dont deserve this . but on a result i think 1-1 or maybe tight 2-1 to us. hopefully the team wont come out in the 2nd half like a rabbit in the highlights like they did v wrexham

No Doyle, Osborn starts

 

[Aston max]

No Doyle, Osborn starts

How would that side have looked with O'Brien and not Ozzy

 

[RealMcCoy]

No Doyle, Osborn starts

Exactly what I thought. I’d prefer McAtee to start.

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

Forget signing Doyle permanently. Can't stay fit

 

[Tony_Kaufman]

With that midfield three if Berge is a passenger then we won't win. If he plays well then we will. He needs to show us consistently why he is a good player and not this good game/bad game inconsistency that's hampered his Blades career. With Ozzy in midfield we can't leave everything up to Norwood. He needs support and so does Ndiaye. Berge is key today, for me. Which one will turn up?

 

[Bookers boots]

Just so I’m reading off the same hymn sheet as everyone else ,Osborn is the current scapegoat yeah?

 

[Stretch]

Doyle is made of biscuits. It's been the same since pre season.

Such a shame.

 

[Montymagic]

Osborn why.

So we are already a man down.

 

[nickwr37]

Just so I’m reading off the same hymn sheet as everyone else ,Osborn is the current scapegoat yeah?

Yes, currently.

 

[Nedski]

JOC is running!

 

[Montymagic]

Just so I’m reading off the same hymn sheet as everyone else ,Osborn is the current scapegoat yeah?

He's just rubbish , plain and simple .

 

[Karaoke Blade]

Osborn why.

So we are already a man down.

Oh fuck off

 

[Tramway Blade]

Osborn why.

 

[Kelso]

Just so I’m reading off the same hymn sheet as everyone else ,Osborn is the current scapegoat yeah?

Yes but to me he has been since he first arrived, he is one of the worst players to put on a United shirt. It’s all about opinions I just don’t rate Osborn

 

[Tramway Blade]

Same as average run about

 

[Wireblade]

We have plenty of quality in that team with Bogle, Lowe, Norwood, Berge and Ndiaye all capable of creating chances. Hopefully Osborn to provide the legs / graft in midfield. UTB

 

[broomhillblade]

Exactly what I thought. I’d prefer McAtee to start.

I'm guessing that McAtee is cover for Ndiaye today.

 

[robbiez666]

Bit unfair on Osborn. Given he is expected to come back from injury and play in one position and then another. Never gets a run at the same position. Not saying he's good enough, but most players would struggle to perform used the way he is.

 

[Montymagic]

Oh fuck off

No thanks buttercup.

 

[FallowfieldBlade]

Please tell me that he is gonna play berge further forward and not in centre mid instead of Small Ben


I’m gonna go for a 1-0 snoozefest with ndiaye scoring in the 25th minute

 

[west_yorks_blade]

Bewildering that Hecky keeps playing Osborn, doesn't he read this forum FFS?

It's almost as though he knows his best side - ridiculous.

 

[Bookers boots]

I’ll take that all day!

 

[metalblade]

Weerz Doyle, injured?

 

[Klaatu Barada Nikto]

That's a strong lineup today. Hopefully Osborn playing will allow Berge to do his thing higher up the pitch

Oh so you think it's fine to just pick players based on merit?
