[Esteban Cambiasso]

Just noticed there are more scousers playing for us than for Liverpool in the Merseyside derby, Ian Rush would be turning in his grave if he was dead

 

[Snowflake]

Would love to see Gus alongside Vini but can't see it!

If I was in charge it would be;

Coops

Clarke
Holding
Anel
Burrows

JRS
Vini
Gus
BBD

COH
Cannon

I think after the Pompey debacle Wilder will go with;

Coops

Clarke
Anel
JLT
Burrows

Gus
Vini
Peck
BBD

COH
Cannon

Just one out !!

 

[jono_t2000]

Iling-Junior and Iheanacho make their first starts

 

[Flumps]

So is everyone going to say that's a good lineup (just like they did on Saturday), and then if we play crap, start numerous posts saying it was obviously the wrong team and CW hasn't got a clue?

You're damn right we will

All jokes aside I'd like to think Wilder has a much better idea than me on what team to pick. On paper that's a good side but when they come out and perform poorly, or should I say if a certain individual or individuals we kinda question why they're there. Are we supposed to believe they're shining in training to get their squad place and then performing poorly?

Sometimes it does feel like we put the big names there regardless and maybe that's where people's criticism of Wilders choices come from that and his often stubborn attitude.

I remember him turning our grave defence and leaving them for dead.
Playing for Chester back int 70's

 

[Not_a_Cheat]

Our defence will be vulnerable against their front 3. 3-1 Boro.

0-8 borough.







By half time

 

[Aston max]

My borough mate is still crying about this latte lath character moving

 

[Sharp_as_a_Blade]

The amount of corners that end up with Cooper is ridiculous

 

[drblade]

Much much better

 

[Esteban Cambiasso]

Playing really well other than cannon who looks completely lost so far

 

[Not_a_Cheat]

Our defence will be vulnerable against their front 3. 3-1 Boro.

I travelled 9 hours. I was gonna watch us play at home. You've helped me decide against it.

Good choice considering sunderland and Burnley are both 5 nil up and playing against teams with now only 9 men after the sending offs.

Are you available on Craigslist for weekend pep talks? Rent a pig?

 

[Sharp_as_a_Blade]

This fucking ref, never a foul

 

[GlosBlade]

Much better so far

 

[Rufus Smalls]

Typical present day shit ref.

Gives 2 soft ‘fouls’ against Peck and Cannon and completely overlooks Ayling practically bear hugging Robbo on one of our corners.

 

[Sharp_as_a_Blade]

JRS has looked great this first 20 mins

 

[Super Furry Blades]

Our defence will be vulnerable against their front 3. 3-1 Boro.

Half hour gone , not sure they have been in our box .
Speaking of boxes , why don't you get back in yours you daft tw@t

 

[kop blade]

.A POSITIVE home lane WIN ..sufc 3 boro 0...play special brew from the start he looks on fire hittng the bar v pompey so get him playing has a striker not winger coz he will come GOOD hes a goal scorer not a winger so play him up top and i predict a ROUT and blades rhian brewster hatrick ..forza sufc....

why leave him on the dam bench or play him wide hes a striker he cant score if hes not playing hes a quality player i think hes class ill always back him to score nuff said...utb....

 

[Sharp_as_a_Blade]

GET INNNNN

 

[Belvedere Blade]

GOAL for the BLADES

 

[HarryHaslam]

Get in, fully deserved!

 

[Rufus Smalls]

Hamer outstanding this half.

 

[DaddyDozy]

Well deserved that! Much improvement on Portsmouth (so far)

 

[drblade]

JRS been excellent. Great team performance so far

 

[Sharp_as_a_Blade]

FFS Hamer down

 

[JJBlade]

Hamer outstanding this half.

Injury

 

[Belvedere Blade]

 

[drblade]

Looks like he has an issue with his hamstring.

 

[CarolinaBlade]

Excellent to keep that in and setup from Hamer. Glad JRS was able to finish when O'Hare couldn't

 

[CornwallBlade]

Get him off - risk of serious damage

 

[Headshrinker]

What a first half so far. Impressive!
