Match Thread Sheffield United v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[CahillsCornerFlag]

Sheffield with 2 points so far. Don't even think about it everton. Don't you DARE.

What this needs is a professional performance, a solid 2-0 where we’re in control throughout with no scares.

No, I don’t remember us ever doing that either.

 

[sarath]

I know Pickford is erratic, but why do we have TWO backup keepers on the bench?

 

[Goat]

Looking at Sheffield we really wont get a better chance to break the never won without Richie load of bollox.

Don't spoil boxing day as well please blues. These are proper crap and need trouncing.

Hardly anybody has smashed them all season.

Small margins in this league.

 

[bebo86]

Just scrape a win

 

[mceverton]

Glad Gordon’s starting over Bernard, really hope he has a good one tonight

4.15 pm on a Sunday afternoon i believe. One of the first live Everton games on TV after i started supporting, what a letdown!

Talking of let downs........................tonight is gonna be tough. A more or less fully fit first team would be a different story but with half of them out and our propensity for playing down to our opponents level it's not gonna be an easy win like you might think against a team as poor as them currently.

We might win, we might lose. Hell we might even draw. But games aren't won on paper, whichever side gets picked need to give everything and make sure their extra ability shows through. Fail to do that and they have a chance.

don't care if it's a 1-0 o.g win, Just need to win this.

Perhaps Carlo sending a message about squad depth, where having nine subs means we can't actually field a full viable bench.

 

[Professor Toffee]

Dont understand this.

Surely they are better off sitting at home rather than sitting on a bench.

What's to understand we have 2 sub goalkeepers, for what?

 

[Mutzo Nutzo]

We got this

 

[irishblue11]

expecting brewster to turn into messi for this one

 

[LouReedwalkonthewildside]

Davies and Siggy midfield. Oh dear.

End of the day, that team is playing the bottom of the league and 3 points takes them 2nd.

If they can't do it, then they should take a look at themselves and admit they'll never be a successful footballer.

Said it earlier, Should suit Sigurdsson more this game because of the lack of pace in that Sheff utd side.

 

[sheedys big toe]

Sorry sat on phone earlier

 

[kenada_blue]

I mean we really don't have any other options atm

Just my opinion but Holgate should be there
