Match Thread Sheffield United v. Liverpool - 28th February 2021

[HeySethUTB]

Fulham 2.0 only this time we get dicked. Sticking to his principle, to either show us lot two fingers or he lacks any way of changing our system. Draw would be nice.

 

[A Storm of Blades]

FFS - why? What on earth have we got to lose trying something else? So we might take a pasting rather than the flaccid 2-0 standard. So what? Christ the line-up, tactics and stubbornness are getting on my tits now.

 

[Working Class Hero]

So what line up would you have picked?

Not quite sure what other options there are apart from may be a switch around up top.

Mine wouldn't have been a lot different, Wilder has his hands tied with many of them.

McBurnie would be locked in the boot room though.

 

[JPSharpy93]

First time this season where I’m looking forward to drinking my Guinness more than watching the match

 

[PeterNdlovu081]

It's not all doom and gloom.

Sheffield United are the only team in Premier League history that have been relegated more than once but never conceded more than 4 goals in a match.

Oh God I've gone and done it now.

 

[Davalon]

Sheff Utd 4-0 win!

I'll quickly nip round yours before the game to pinch some of what you're drinking if that's OK

 

[FredZeppelin]

It's exactly the side I thought he'd play. Liverpool must be creaming themselves looking at that, but that's all we've got.

When I think of McBurnie playing up front for us all I can now see in my mind is an endlessly repeating meme of an overweight chimp sat on a car tyre on the edge of the 18 yard box, chucking his shit towards the goal at the Bramall Lane end and not quite having the strength to reach. Fucking Hell

UTB

Burke would have been better than McBurnie. McBurnie plays we play awful, simple as.

I can't understand why Burke is now completely out of the picture

 

[Need4speed]

I can't understand why Burke is now completely out of the picture

Easy he is not 100% fit Same with Osbourne and Lowe

 

[originaltrueblade]

It’s all about Liverpool’s injuries fuck sake Sky

 

[bakeblade]

Easy he is not 100% fit Same with Osbourne and Lowe

A less than 100% fit Burke offers more than Mcburnie

 

[BlairBlade]

I obviously hope I am wrong - where are our goals coming from?

Three at the back - McGoldrick & McBurnie up front?

Liverpool are apparently on a poor run and some think we are going to take advantage of that - I certainly hope so. Hmm!

 

[Drunk blade]

Roy Keane ripping us to shreds before we've even kicked off..

 

[Grey Blade]

It’s all about Liverpool’s injuries fuck sake Sky

I was almost beginning to feel sorry for liverpool but then I saw the forward line

 

[FATTYFOULKE]

Roy Keane ripping us to shreds before we've even kicked off..

Winding me up already. Absolutely no respect for us.

 

[Superblade7]

God his stubbornness is unbelievable to not change it up now.

Eight behind the ball and hoof it to McBurnie, lose possession and repeat!

Can we not just concede the rest of the season as I don’t know how much more of this turgid shite I can watch!

 

[bakeblade]

I was almost beginning to feel sorry for liverpool but then I saw the forward line

Apart from the front line, it's a very poor looking Liverpool team

 

[originaltrueblade]

I was almost beginning to feel sorry for liverpool but then I saw the forward line

Yes mate haven’t they already got an excuse though if we beat them

 

[Drunk blade]

Winding me up already. Absolutely no respect for us.

He just says it as he sees it to be fair to him... The others are probably thinking the same

 

[PeterNdlovu081]

Eight behind the ball and hoof it to McBurnie, lose possession and repeat!

Nothing wrong with that tactic if it stops us getting hammered.

 

[Steelcitysenior]

Winding me up already. Absolutely no respect for us.

He doesn't respect anybody that's not Manure. Sky presenters aren't usually that honest. Keane says it as he sees it.

 

[Lawrence]

Sheff Utd 4-0 win!

Only 1 like for my 4-0 win prediction!?

 

[Lawrence]

Norwood F**king backwards

 

[Ukkonen]

I have to wonder, will Norwood look decent again when we are back in rhe Championship?

 

[United Aren't Back.]

Anyone wanna buy Lundstram??

 

[Drunk blade]

Norwoods just put a great ball in which we nearly scored from and everyone is slagging him off... Why!!?

 

[Davalon]

Anyone see if Wilder and Klopp shared a cordial fist bump beforehand?

 

[Superblade7]

Nothing wrong with that tactic if it stops us getting hammered.

Gives Liverpool all the possession, invites pressure, eventually leads to another mistake which costs us a goal.

Roll on the Wilder post game interview about fine margins and mistakes!

 

[FriethBlade]

We are actually playing quite well

 

[DroitwichBlade]

We are actually playing quite well

Well done. You’ve now pissed off the football gods
