[jono_t2000]

Not Mcb night tonight. Hopefully Sharp can be the difference

 

[FallowfieldBlade]

The usual bottle job subs from hecky

Can’t take Norwood off because he’s Norwood ahead of Doyle who’s been miles better than Norwood

And brings sharp on over macatee

Grow a pair heckiola

 

[Rufus Smalls]

Not Mcb night tonight. Hopefully Sharp can be the difference

Hopefully, but it’s all about the build up and delivery which has been lacking up to now.

 

[Shakespeare blade]

Had to turn sound off from my tv, somehow got qpr commentary, the most biased commentary ever, apparently Egans great tackle was a second yellow, crowd shouldn’t tell ref how to ref and we’re playing shite

 

[drblade]

Just don’t look like scoring

 

[Bobby b]

Theres nobody who has more chances from our corners than egan, christ knows why he doesn't practice headers in their box

 

[Jan Age]

First half pretty even

Second has been shambolic —-we are hoping for a moment of individual brilliance.

Not playing as a team at all.

Midfield conceding ground sitting right on top of defenders leaving too big a gap to the strikers and leaves load of space for QPR to exploit.

But we go again.

 

[CornwallBlade]

Finally, some urgency in getting forward

 

[Rufus Smalls]

I love Sander but he’s been dreadful tonight.

 

[CornwallBlade]

We are experiencing new levels of shithousing from QPR - should be 6+ extra minutes

 

[Digger]

Theres nobody who has more chances from our corners than egan, christ knows why he doesn't practice headers in their box

He does practice, but when your noggin is the shape of a 10 bob bit its difficult.

 

[drblade]

Couldn’t score if we played all week. FFS

 

[drblade]

Back to back poor performances.

 

[Drunk blade]

Has to be a penalty, dragged berge down by his shirt

 

[JJBlade]

It's Sheffield United
It's what we do

We cannot have things too good, it's just not allowed

 

[Yarrayering]

Need Anel back quick... For goals and defending

 

[JPSharpy93]

We had chances when the game was open early on and we were on top- we didn’t take the chances. QPR had a good spell and could’ve won 2-0. We didn’t really lay a glove second half

 

[FinBlade]

I had forgot what loss feels like. Something else in next game please.

 

[originaltrueblade]

Never seen a more blatant penalty

 

[Iffy Onuora's Shiny Head]

Rubbish. When Ndiaye doesn't play well the whole team loses any creativity

 

[United Aren't Back.]

Back to back poor performances.

Most of last season, even with Hecky in charge, was exactly that.
We have to jut enjoy the rare flashes of inspiration as they come.

 

[Headshrinker]

Well not that bad of a performance tonight but obviously not good enough.

Everyone banging on about promotion before the international break are surely down to earth now? It's going to be a long season...

 

[BladesOnToast]

Never seen a more blatant penalty

I have seen a hell of a lot blatenter penalties than that. Hard to justfiy when Sander has a handful of their guy's shirt.

 

[bakeblade]

You can see the difference in the two teams at the moment. Their midfield get the ball and move forward, ours move sideways , back then a bit forward. Meanwhile they get their defensive positions sorted.

We had chances when the game was open early on and we were on top- we didn’t take the chances. QPR had a good spell and could’ve won 2-0. We didn’t really lay a glove second half

Goalies decided the points, Wes poor on their goal, their keeper great save from Norwood

 

[Edgar Allan Poo]

 

[Millhousesblade1889]

Just missing so many players and look knackered after 12 games. Once we get one back another goes off. There’s a pattern it’s not just bad luck

 

[Northernsoulblade]

Frustrating one shit piece of goalkeeping should never have conceded but these things happen onward to Stoke another 3 points begging to be had oh and Doyle is not miles better than Norwood

 

[Tezza1889]

They got thier game plan perfect, came for a point and took all 3.. Worked harder than us without the ball.

On that showing we'll have a bad day in Stoke this Saturday.

Oh and credit to qpr for working out the ref was a bottle job, it just made thier job easier...

 

[Nagima]

Tactically poor in the second half. Back to playing down both wings and crossing when QPR are already set up to deal with it. No one recieving the ball at the D and no-one cutting inside and driving towards the box.

 

[Champagneblade]

Stats.

Lot of dominance to come away with nothing.

It was poor from Wes for the goal, let's call it out. Goalkeeping 101 you don't let leave room between you and your near post.

N'Diaye really should have scored.

It's been a pretty poor return from Internationals so far. Hopefully we can do better away.

Quick word of thanks for the Norway manager. He's completely ruined Berge's form playing him deep midfield and then left midfield. Might take him a couple of games to get it back now and he was imperious when he went away.

1 point from Brum and QPR at home. Massively disappointing that.

Get Anel back in for the next game too. Hate to say it but I start to get nervous whenever Bash is near the ball. Looks so unassured these days.

I suppose if George has taken a knock then either Bash goes to RWB or more likely Bogle goes there, Bash to LCB and Norrington-Davies to LWB.

For all the dominance it still felt like McBurnie was completely starved of chances. Plus I have to say, Brewster is taking a long time to get up to speed again. Neither he nor Billy looked dangerous at all.

We really need to make it count when on top. That was a key miss from N'Diaye. Brilliant to craft it in the first place but a crucial miss in a tight game. First game we've done worse than last year on.
