Isn’t the solution simple?

Just put anyone you’re not interested in on ignore. Personably think any in the know info is interesting but of course it should be taken with a pinch of salt.

Also makes me laugh when an ITK might have a run of accurate transfer info but once they get anything wrong then they are called an imposter and receive loads of abuse. Why?

Maybe ITK posters should be including disclaimers explaining “this might not be a fact but here is what I’ve heard ……., take it in the good faith it is meant”

Or is the alternative to stop anyone giving rumours or in the know info they’ve received about line ups, transfers, takeovers etc.

Regards Brooks, don’t think he’s ready but the midfield has been so poor any alternate is viable. Also we need to have one eye on next season regards developing some of the younger players. Wonder if Slimane will be given a chance.
As much as I don’t think there’s a huge chance that one of Klopp’s lackeys is searching the internet for possible line ups, there is literally no positive to posting potential line ups early, and there is a potential negative (as far fetched as it might seem).

on that note, I haven’t checked the twats thread for a while.
 

It's an approach I can get behind as it's more athleticism up front. I don't care about the result, I just want to see something other than a spineless display of not giving a fuck.
 
Let's ask the gaffer if he likes his teamsheet leaking on the forum a day before a game and if the answer is no (which it will be) then that should be plenty enough reason to stop it happening.
 
I'll be interested to see if Thomas plays and if plays any differently under Wilder.

I'm pretty sure that if Salah plays he will have Lukes pants down.
 
I'm not saying he's a bad player just I haven't seen anything so far that looks like a Premiership player.
I think some of our fans need too take the old bladey glasses off because he definitely wasn't impressive in the Tottenham game that they are making out.
Not seen many that have looked like premiership players this season to be fair….
 
GET KIDS.

CHUCK EM IN.

They’re not going to grow up if you don’t make em.

You’ve got to die for 3 fucking points.
 
Archer and Osula Starting up front...


Shhhhhhhh, Klopp might be reading, don't say owt.. Might hurt our chances.

Anybody can guess this stuff, we know he's half right with mcburnies red, osula has got to start, what's the other option.

Why we get our knickers in a twist I don't know..

I think Archer has, we've created fuck all chances for him, and the fact that he still manages to look dangerous is remarkable..

When City or Newcastle go in for Oli Watkins, Archer will be his his replacement, hence the alleged "deal" in place for him to go back to Villa when we go down.

Which I think we're still nailed on to do..

(see, we're not all getting carried away by CWAK mk2)
 
I don't mind itk stuff related to takeovers etc, but leaking the team can only boost the ego of the poster. It won't help the club at all.

Saying that, Liverpool will have studied all our players and potential formations. We won't catch them unawares whatever our lineup is.
I doubt they'd spend long on Brooks though tbf. Maybe a one liner at the bottom of a slide. "Potential subs: Brooks, pacey youngster left footed." - I'm completely guessing mind you. I'm not ITK at either club 😄

I once received some ITK information from Kevin McCabe on a player who was having a medical with us, but we didn't end up signing him. It's football, and things happen at the last minute.
 
Why would any supporter of Sheffield United leak information like this? I can only guess this poster is a hanger-on of someone involved with one of Wilder's team who isn't a Blade.

This stuff can only harm our chances.
It's true that. Liverpool will be absolutely shitting themselves and looking for any advantage they can possibly get.

Only my own personal opinion, but Wilder has a bit to go for me to get my full respect back after the way he walked out the back door.

I get why as Blades we should all rally round him and the team, however, as things stand today against Liverpool I don’t give a hoot if someone, anyone, decides to give away a couple of starters.

After gaining legendary status, he lost a bit of my respect. But like I say, just my opinion

I remember several years ago Warnock being interviewed and he was saying transfer negotiations can be absolute madness.
He mentioned a story that he'd met a player and his agent, showed them around the club and they'd shook hands on the deal.

He was due to come in to sign the papers the following day
then Warnock reads in one of the national news papers he's signed for someone else.

Said he rang the agent to find out what was going on and it switched to the answer machine and he never returned his call.

So in this case Neil Warnock himself could be sunjihi, telling people "we've signed player X, it's a 100% done deal....watch this space"
Then when he didn't sign everyone would be calling Neil Warnock as imposter and liar.

Hence when "in the knowers" get things wrong, they are often not wrong, it was true when they received the info but things evolve.

Can also remember Wilder also saying something about people would never believe how crazy transfer window deadline day can be.
He had a deal lined up and agreed to bring in Jerome Sinclair but just as he was about to sign the agent increased the price saying that was his agents fee. The agent obviously expected United to be so desperate that we'd pay it but Wilder refused on principle and Sinclair was left at the train station, what a sliding doors moment for him.

Sinclair is still only 27, recently played in the Bulgarian league for a while and last season had a trial at Oxford but was rejected.
So he's now stepped away from football and become a business man opening up a fried chicken shop.

Can’t understand why Broomhall Blade is getting pelters for his assessment of Brooks vs Spurs. Looked a fish out of water to me and demonstrated none of his ball playing skills and positivity he typically displays for the U21s.

I’m all for Wilder throwing him in tonight, but if he does don’t expect miracles. If Brooks was that good he’d either be out on loan or featuring more regularly off the bench.

Judge players on their contribution, not based on their age with rose tinted specs on.
 
He didn't do well against Spurs how many more times.
If he plays tonight he might have a good game, I hope he does but from the little I have seen of him so far, he's not going too improve us.

Who would you have in midfield, in place of Brooks?, genuine question, as I am not sure who else has pace, maybe Slimane?

I don't know if I'm honest.
My gripe was with some of our fans who seem to think he played really well against Spurs which he didn't.

But that's the only time I have really seen him play, the coaches will have seen for more of him and if they give him a starting spot night then good luck too the lad.
 
Wilder otherwise played his cards close to his chest as he spoke to the media for the first time since his appointment was announced.

“I’m not going to give anything away – the job is hard enough,” he said.

 

ITK, just heard (don't tell klopp), pigeons are going to a fly a diamond formation and shit on the opposition, then switch to two lots of finger four, then line abreast....
