Live Match Discussion 2023/24

Sheff U's tactics are still all about protecting their GD

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

All of the promoted three look very under-prepared so far to me.

Luton looked like a bad League One team playing an FA Cup tie on Friday and Sheff Utd have been about the same.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Aren’t everyone’s against City though?

 

[YoungWolf]

I do like what Kompany is trying to get Burnley to do but they look exceptionally mediocre.

Their squad is really weird. Some pretty average players in there and Belgian league players who I don’t really know but quite a risk to hope they all step up to the level

Easy for me to say from afar but I think the quality in the Championship has badly declined compared to when we were last there six years ago, and hugely so compared to say 20 years ago.

So teams will walk that league and it's no real indication of how they'll do when they go up. At least before if a team got 90+ points you could normally say that 4-5 of the current XI would be good. Now you can't say that, added to the trend of them having loan players who they then can't keep so have to replace. Like this Sheff Utd team is worse than the one they had in April.

Burnley have the best chance of the three but I do think they're going under the radar a bit, we get mentioned a lot more in terms of relegation than they do, but I certainly wouldn't swap first choice XIs with them.

Sheff Utd score

Moronic stuff from Walker.

 

[Wolftone]

Kyle Walker atrocious back heel in his own area

 

[Jack Regan]

Huge deflection too.

 

[YoungWolf]

That’s ridiculous

 

[Jack Regan]

Walker doing a Ketsbaia on the advertising too. City should then immediately have regained the lead.

 

[Wolftone]

1-2 had to happen

 

[Tony Towner]

This is why I have Wolves. They made me cheer that goal

 

[jd1981]

Absolutely ridiculous if Sheff Utd get anything here been about as uncompetitive a game as you could get until 75 minutes.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Oh, great hit Rodri.

 

[Jack Regan]

Clanger on the sideline from the Sheffield United this time (Walker getting some redemption too).

 

[YoungWolf]

Some strike that!

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Should have gone 2-2! Not sure how he's missed that.

 

[Jack Regan]

Went for the connectacular instead of just sticking it in.

 

[Jack Regan]

Bottle job from the ref on TAA.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Totally bottled it.
