When’s the team out?
Both nervous and excited to see what we’re going with this week!!

 

[broomhillblade]

Looks like Henderson been given a rare start tonight

Let's hope he throws one in for us.

 

[Greasy Chap Butty]

“wunt want thi in trenchers wi me”

wrong war !!

 

[nickwr37]

Put my lucky socks on first time this season....

 

[Barry Butlin]

Berge & Ampadu oh no 5-0 Man Utd

 

[bibbity bobbity boo]

United manager Chris Wilder makes three changes for tonight’s home game against Man Utd. Oli McBurnie misses out with injury.

 

[Camden Blade]

Can't see where the goals are going to come from. More of the same unfortunately

 

[bibbity bobbity boo]

The other United if anyone is interested:

Man Utd XI vs. Sheffield United (4-2-3-1): Henderson; Wan-Bissaka, Lindelöf, Maguire, Telles; Matic, Pogba; Greenwood, Fernandes, Rashford; Martial.

 

[Camden Blade]

We are gonna get hammered.

 

[Hartley Hare]

Burke, Fleck, Stevens, Robinson.

Gulp,

HH

 

[8lade]

I knew they'd put Henderson in and I bet the fucker has a blinder (as I previously suggested) however I like our team just hope Ampadu turns up otherwise he needs the hook for Osborn.

 

[Bladesman98]

Our strikers must fancy themselves against hendo surely, trained with him every week

 

[Barry Butlin]

We are gonna get hammered.

Yes we are

Attacking line up. Can definitely catch them on the counter if we try.

 

[Arcott]

According to the BBC Callum Robinson is making a guest appearance tonight

 

[Danetheblade]

130m spent. Lol.

 

[8lade]

A real shame Norwood's been crap, his form of last season I could just seem him repeatedly knocking the ball behind the right back Burke swooping in and crossing for whoever cuts in to shoot (maybe Fleck, McGoldrick, Brewster, Sharp?)

 

[Luke1993]

I think we might get up to the dizzy heights of 30% possession for about 4 minutes.

 

[Tynemouth Blade]

I'm now convinced that Wilder is just pulling names out of a hat!

 

[hull-Blade]

Seems strange seeing Henderson in the opposition goal ! Hopefully has one of his rare blunders !

 

[Greasy Chap Butty]

Our strikers must fancy themselves against hendo surely, trained with him every week

pity only one of them who has is starting...........

 

[AnstonBlade1]

That side has championship wrote all over it

 

[CoatesyBlade]

Quite surprised to see Robinson back in. Not cos of his ability... more cos his confidence must be rock bottom. Wilder ditched him and has tried every fooker in the sqd in his position!
Plus we can’t really go to a 4 at the back now when Bash inevitably has to move further up the pitch!

Apart from that it’s pretty much what I was expecting to see. No frills!

 

[bibbity bobbity boo]

So glad Man Utd have decided to rest their best players.

 

[Geordie Blade]

That side has championship wrote all over it

I agree. And ours doesn't look that much better.

Badum tish.

 

[YES Blade]

I knew they'd put Henderson in and I bet the fucker has a blinder (as I previously suggested) however I like our team just hope Ampadu turns up otherwise he needs the hook for Osborn.

I doubt it, you could stick Lee Baxter in the net for Man U and he’d keep a clean sheet tonight!

 

[Greasy Chap Butty]

Can't see where the goals are going to come from. More of the same unfortunately

Goldy will be holding it up for nobody, Burke racing to by-line to centre to nobody.

 

[blades14]

I genuinely give up with wilder and his tactics

 

[Luke1993]

Mcburnie isn't playing, so you would think we're not going to lump it. But guess what! That's exactly what we're gonna do, get ready Didzy!

 

[Camden Blade]

Goldy will be holding it up for nobody, Burke racing to by-line to centre to nobody.

£33 million striking talent on the bench. Not much point bringing them on when we're 3.0 down. I was hoping for some fresh thinking tonight from CW, a roll of the dice.
