[fifty shades of blade]

'Ooh we're gonna lose this one' 'can't see where a goal is coming from' ....will they ever learn?

 

[Not so Slim ane]

Get in, superb play by ohare

 

[Thrice]

Hamer is a really clinical finisher. When he gets in position, he will score 9/10.

 

[Belvedere Blade]

Great goal by Hamer. Come on BLADES

 

[JJ Sefton]

We’ve got our club back.

 

[Sheffsteel]

Great goal Hamer.

It’s fully deserved, we’ve started well.

We look up for it, as though the players know they need 3 points and a draw wouldn’t be good enough.

By the way I like that away kit with the black shirts and light green shorts.

Some of our best displays of the season always seem to be with that kit, hoping it’s a good omen.

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

On replay, loked offside but linesman behind the play and looked onside to him and that's what counts. Thank god we have no VAR

 

[SRBlade]

Looked well on

 

[straight_outta_compton]

Hamer is a really clinical finisher. When he gets in position, he will score 9/10.

He's a very classy player. Totally agree about his clinical finishing. Good ball striker and goes for accurate position rather than blasting it

 

[paidsy]

The defence is absolutely gone

 

[BangorBlade]

Ffs

 

[toledo]

That was a God awful goal to concede!!!!!

 

[Northernsoulblade]

Fcuk me schoolboy defending

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

Well damn

 

[Blademan89]

Terrible from burrows and lazy from Brooks. That's a poor goal to give away.

 

[KOPPO]

[Iceybabey]

How have we become so shit at basic defending?

Poor by Burrows

 

[fifty shades of blade]

Poor goal to concede, awful letting ngakia have a free shot at an emtpy goal. Basic defending fail. Oh well Inhave faith we will win this.

 

[Pittsburg Blade]

Harry Souttar on one leg could have defended better that.

 

[JJ Sefton]

We’ve got our club back.

And it’s gone again.

 

[Not so Slim ane]

How have we become so shit at basic defending?

Poor by Burrows

2nd time he's been completely done, having a bit of a stinker so far

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

2 goals from forwards running onto a quick thru ball into space behind the defence.

 

[ATL Recs]

How have we become so shit at basic defending?

Poor by Burrows

Why was Robinson covering the same area as Burrows ?

 

[paidsy]

Robinson is having another one. Going to be tough to get anything out of this on the current trajectory.

 

[originaltrueblade]

Defenders all out of position

 

[toledo]

I'm a Cooper fan, but he should not have let the ball go across him... its in the 6 yard box and it should have bee claimed by him...

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

Watford doing exactly same tactics as Sunderland......let us have the ball to just past halfway line then a quick press rob the player and break extremely fast.

 

[Sheffsteel]

The defence is absolutely gone

That’s my concern.

With Souter it looked so easy keeping clean sheets.

Now we don’t have Souter think clean sheets will be rare, think we’ll concede at least 1 goal every game, so that means we need to be scoring 2 or 3 goals every match if we want to win.

 

[Not so Slim ane]

Watford look like they are going to score every time they get forward, missing Souza to snuff out the attacks

 

[Not so Slim ane]

That’s my concern.

Now we don’t have Souter think clean sheets will be rare, think we’ll concede at least 1 goal every game, so that means we need to be scoring 2 or 3 goals every match if we want to win.

I think we're missing big Vinnie more,the opposition midfield seem to be one on one against the centre backs much more regularly without him playing
