What a weird game, full of massive positives and massive negatives.
Negatives
First half, thought Fleck and McAtee were terrible, our midfield was so lightweight and almost non existent.
Also thought Osborne struggled first half
We were unlucky with their 2 goals but although we did loads of attacking 1st half we never looked like scoring.
Brewster was busy and worked hard but is constantly the nearly man, nearly made a good pass, nearly scored a goal, nearly won possession etc.
Sharp hardly touched the ball 1st half and was ineffective.
Postives
N'Diaye changed the game as sub, he went on little dribbles and the NC defenders struggled to cope with him.
Doyle gave us that extra bite and steel when he came on as sub
McBurnie was a total nuisance to the NC defence, he seems stronger and hungry.
All these 3 played really well....so could ask why weren't they starting?
Osborne played much better 2nd half, deserves praise for showing character.
The crowd got going at 2-2, great atmosphere like BL can be and their team seemed to fold.
Really pleased for our goalie, a terrible totally avoidable blunder for their 1st goal but he redeemed himself with that late penalty safe.
After such a terrible 1st half when we were joking about leaving at half time, it was that depressing.
We actually showed signs of the "real Sheffield United" 2nd half.
Disappointing result, if only McBurnie had scored that point blank header in injury time, he headed it downwards but straight at the keeper who stopped it on the line.
At least it was an entertaining game, 2nd half.
