Sheffield United (A) - Weds 10th Feb 19:30 - Matchday thread

[Alessandro]

My expectations are so low, i'm happy when we have 5 minutes of possession. Which we did!

Toothless though. Really are void of ideas in final third.

[WarksRobin]

Hunt looks exhausted

[Red Army 75]

Taylor Moore, Kalas, Williams and young Towler all done really well defensively. That’s all I got

Actually thinking about it playing with ten men without Wells is probably more effective for than playing with 11 with Wells in the team so no wonder we’ve done better in the last ten minutes!

This season’s scapegoat then.

It doesn’t have to be deliberate handball inside the penalty area any more. It’s been the law for two seasons now!

 

Exactly. Moan about the rule if you want but its a correct decision.

[cidercity1987]

We play the exact same game twice a week and my my it is boring as 

[cityexile]

Just me who thinks we have done ok this evening?

Yeh I get that but the rule is totally wrong.

[SecretSam]

Let's be honest, we are rotten but Sheff Utd aren't much to write home about.

[mossey]

Yet again, did we ever look like scoring?

[Cardy]

Bearing in mind Sheff Utd are rock bottom of the Prem we haven’t really laid a glove on them - even when we had a 11. We are just so poor offensively it’s comical.

So the letter of the law says if there is an accidental handball, you get punished twice. brilliant. 

If he hadnt handled it, it was a goal. So if it was just a penalty and they missed, they',ve lost out.

[dREDful]

Pretty pathetic cup performance with a quarter final at stake tbh.

Iam exhausted watching this shyte

[LoyalRed]

Cripes this looks like a training game 

[The Dolman Pragmatist]

Really depressing reading some of the comments on this thread.  I see a very decent performance, marred by an undeserved red card.

[Rob k]

This co commentator is getting on my friggin nerves 

[Superjack]

Last ten minutes with ten men, we finally show some attacking intent.

More negative sh*te from the guy that supported the most negative 'manager' in my lifetime of supporting this club.

Done with Nakhi Wells. Offers nothing, very selfish, the only option he looks for is himself. Don’t mind selfish if there is a end result, but not in his case. Would be happy if he left. 

Usually I’d agree with this, but you can’t  blame him when we generally create nothing next to nothing for him game after game

[Big C]

3mins injury time with all those subs and a VAR decision 

 

[ohhhshauntaylor]

Where has Towler been the last 4 games?

Don’t go and spoil it

[PFree]

Come on, we’ve had two shots on target, that’s progress isn’t it..?

I think he was injured

I think we were ok. Given the rules it was not undeserved, but we have done better than I expected.

Reports coming in, Wells was helped into the changing rooms.

He'd hit the door anyway 

[pillred]

That female commentator must be a Sheffield utd fan never heard anyone so biased. 

[Better Red]

Ended up playing with not a recognised striker in a cup game we are 1 nil down.

But he is negative coach.

Shots on target 1.... 
 

Cant score if you don’t shoot

Cant win if don’t score...

Not really, can’t say I’ve seen anything of note from him all year, other than generally looking disinterested. I’d show more heart than him and I’m slightly rotund and almost 50
