Shoreham Street - Til Death Us Do Part
I don't know if anyone else heard Grayson's comments about us after the game on Saturday but to sum it up he thought they handled us early doors and limited us to long range shots but they didn't handle that spell of pressure that we put them under when we scored. He did say we are a good team who will be there or there about's come the end of the season.
On thing he did say though was along the lines of "We know what Sheffield United are all about, they play counter attacking football, this is probably why they drop so many points at home".
To an extent I do think think Grayson has a point. In the first half of the season I think we have been guilty of this on a few occasions when we should have been applying pressure a kicking on for the win.
In addition to this I do think we have been quite predictable for a good few teams in this league this year who knows about Clough's eagerness to play counter attacking football. Most teams turn up with the mindset of playing with discipline and two solid banks of players sat in front of the keeper as we have struggled to break them down.
We played great on Saturday but it won't work every time. I do think with the new signings needs to come a new mentality and a plan B as well. The only way we are going to mount any sort of challenge for those automatic places now is to win games and at the same time we need to get the goal tally up as well so we need to be going at teams and winning convincingly.
