Oh dear Aaron Lennon is ill......he may be fit for us though.




Lennon, 26, will play no part of England's friendly meeting with Spain at Old Trafford on Wednesday after head coach Steve McClaren confirmed he had released the wideman due to illness.

[Robbie]

26? think that may be incorrect

 

[Warnock=God]

26? think that may be incorrect

Unless he's doing a Martins

 

[silverfox]

26? think that may be incorrect

I'm not checking the facts.

Is it his waist size?? Like mine?

 

[Robbie]

Is it his waist size?? Like mine?

26 metres?

 

[Tingo Fandango]

Lennon out would be the best news , pre-match, we could have. He was the one who scared us witless at WHL.

Fathi seems on form, & fit, scoring in the dying minutes against Sweden.. Lets seem what he can do for us please Neil!!!

 

[TonyAgana]

It's usually club form which increases chances of international recognition, not the other way round!!

 

[Tingo Fandango]

Damn right!

It's usually club form which increases chances of international recognition, not the other way round!!

Very good point TA!!!

 

[silverfox]

Watching the last few Spurs games I'd suggest that Steed Malbranque is the man to watch on Saturday.

A quality "old type" player.

 

[Tinoblade]

Steed is a very good player he worries me

 

[Sensiblade]

Early team news from the BBC.
Looks like Nade is ill.

No injury, just notmatch fit and needs to improve his sharpness. See the OS

My mistake that malbranque isnt bad though

 

[Robbie]

If you ask me, this is worrying, their season only finiahed end of december if i recall rightly.

Your MOTM v. Spurs

A vital win for the Blades which sees us on the 30 point mark.

We looked to be making hard work of it - conceding after two minutes but the lads rallied to come back 2-1 winners.

Ahmed Fathi saw his first action in a Blades shirt as Hulse and Jagielka scored for the Blades.

Who was your Man of the Match?

As ever, you have until the morning of the next match to vote.

 

[silverfox]

Has to be Monty for me, left back, right back and midfield just in the last 5 mins.... with a mention for a few others.....

Lucky, Jags, Kazim, Hulse and Stead.

Great stuff!

 

[Pedders]

excellent result today looked shaky first 15 mins then got into it colin My MOTM

 

[butchaboy]

great all the players, did u see steads flick in the first half dont know who it was on but he did him all over

 

[Tinoblade]

Tempted for montgomery for my motm but gone for hulse a vital goal for him as he hasnt scored in a while so chuffed for him

Monty had a great 2nd half i feel he was putting himself everywhere just what i like

 

[Jack & Helga]

Monty MOM. Considering he's an extremely limited player he was awesome today.

Anyone hear the Scottish guy on PorG? "He's not a footballer, he's a thug. Every team needs someone like him"

Very poor first 20 minutes bt we got more and more into the game and deserved the 3 points. Spurs are another team that have gone down in my estimations. Very petty and very poor losers

 

[Bladesman]

Quality win just what we need with the run of games coming up.

Gone for Lucketti as he didnt put a foot wrong at all really. Also good to see hulse get back scoring.

 

[Linz]

What was Keane trying to do to Paddy?!

I think Paddy said something along the lines of "When you're big enough son"

 

[Bladesman]

Kenny vs Keane i think we all know paddy will win that one.

 

[Greasy Chip Butty]

I went for Lucketti, still finding it hard to fault him.

What was people's opinion on the Defoe 'incident'??
i wouldn't have minded a yellow if it was one push, but he seemed intent on pushing every player that came near him. and the penalty decision might have been a bit outside the box...but we deserve some decisions to go our way after some that have gone against us.

 

[7UpJordan]

Monty was my MOTM for his 2nd half performance, breaking down Spurs' attack, that's what kept us ahead, but on the whole it was another great team performance.

 

[keenzy]

monty my MOTM. everyone was ace but monty was ace as a sweaper.

It was deff in area... im sat online with the 18 yard box and he was a yard or 2 in the area.

GREAT GAME>>>>>> WWWWWWWWWHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOO



WE ARE STAYING UP!!!!
