Sheff Utd (H) 17th April - Match Thread

[Elephant Pyjamas]

I don't like Heckinbottom's eyebrows. Makes him look permanently annoyed.

To be fair, he's Sheff U manager, he probably just is.

 

[Wolvensam]

I hope Traore doesn't leave as he's basically our only attacking threat.

He's come into some form recently. Just has a habit of either being brilliant or absolute dog shit.

Good play by donk for the goal too, lays it off to Adama and follows up into the box too

Jose finally attacks the near post as @Elephant Pyjamas has pointed out and gets the reward. Easy.

people complain about negativity in the matchday thread. what they don't understand is the carousel of fate-tempting that we all take turns with so that the team can benefit.

next time anyone sees "FFS TRAORE" just know what's really happening is they're trying to will the universe into getting him to score in the next minute.

Not sure why he gets so much flack - he gets through a lot of hard and dirty work.

You know you watch a championship game because there is literally nothing else to do, but it’s rubbish, but there’s normally one player who you think “he will do something he will,he looks good”. This game is like that but without the good player.

Adama seemed to hear you! He’s dropping in to receive the ball and everything now

Has he ever watched Traore? That's basically what he always does... you never know if you're going to get peak Ronaldo or peak Carl Cort on the right wing.

2 in 2 for WJ

 

[Dire Wolf]

I'm not sure what I'm more shocked about, the fact that we've taken the lead in a game when we have been truly awful, or the fact that Jose scored...

The match day threads are negative because the match days are shit!

Vitinha’s coming on. Presumably for Podence.

He has been truly awful today. Must be carrying an injury.

Him and Joao have been a good partnership tonight, there can't have been many (any?) times they've starting together as a duo?

The only game that springs to mind for me is Sheffield United the first match of the season when they were both phenomenal.

no dont think so, if he is, shouldnt have started at all

Donk is fine at what he does, he's not a progressive midfielder so looks poor when he's expected to be

 

[Jinky]

I seem to remember us being linked with Baldock before? I wonder if we might look at him again with these lot going down. I reckon he’d be a reasonable back up for Semedo. Neat and tidy and likes to get forward.

 

[t3ch]

dang, podence really needed to put his boot through that one, traore through

 

[Wolvensam]

Nope it's true. He wasn't signed as the progressive, driving midfielder. But he's a good back-up DM.

 

[Elephant Pyjamas]

Podence has got worse and worse.
