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

[Preki]

1 will be enough to win this. Unfortunately that goes for both sides. Should have scored when their goalie dropped that free kick.

 

[peteblue]

Just nick a goal and see it out

This, if we get one that’s the game over....

 

[Osamabindiesel]

I said that I was more worried about this game than Chelsea and Leicester, and this is why. They have no intention of taking risks and are very happy to absorb the pressure as we are. Wouldn’t be upset with a draw considering the weather conditions

 

[USABlue]

well at least we arent down

 

[Hendi]

I think we should just scrap Sigurdsson and try Bernard in the middle. Nothing will come from Siggy. These players are so frustrating. We just need a bit of luck tonight

 

[Lob]

Hopefully we will have a better 2nd half and create some chances. Would be boss to finish boxing day 2nd in the league. Make it so please blues.

 

[AussieToffee11]

James would have a field day in this type of game.

 

[Thomasc]

The danger when you are so impotent up top is that they nick one out of nothing before you do and you lose the game.

As proven against Man U 3 nights ago.

 

[Billy Dean]

We’d do well to remember how awful Bernard was on Weds

 

[Paul Rideout]

People I would t sub: Mina, Keane, Godfrey, Doucoure, Iwobi, DCL and (weirdly) Davies.

I think any of the others are currently at risk.

 

[Amokachi1995]

I think the game is turning out how we all expected. Let’s grind out a win and have a happy Christmas.

 

[peteblue]

If I wasn't bashing myself stupid over Fenella Feilding on Carry on Screaming I'd be booing my voice hoarse

She was very good in that one.....

 

[JimmyJeffers]

That's what he should be doing Jimmy, he should be demanding the ball and running at him time and time again. The kids got pace and playing all this safe crap he's done for 45 minutes won't be doing him any favours.

He’s probably a bit fearful of losing the ball goven this is his golden chance. Would like him to be more fearless which I think suits his game more

"Googles Fenella Fielding"

Fap away

 

[ForeverBlue92]

Doucoure has clearly been instructed to make runs forward off the ball (which is fine) but then nobody is able to drop in, get the ball off Davies, turn and drive.

The one time we did it was Iwobi when he got into the area and should have got that shot off.

It's the only reason I'm calling for Bernard. He's the one player on the bench who could do that.

He should be playing where he did in the league cup where Gylfi occupies - only time he has looked effective as he isn't a wide player.
