    Sheffield Utd- Bristol City 2nd leg play offs

    Imagine having a pitch invasion for finishing 6th and then losing 6-0 in the semi final

    Patterson is clearly not anywhere ready to play even 60 minutes at a high intensity imo

    I would say we are more likely to get a result there than they were at the CBS heading into the match. Lots of people were predicting an easy victory for us against Sunderland based on home form, our record against Sunderland and how poor Sunderland have been recently. One mistake and that's...

    Heard a lot of people say the mistake was the poor execution of the back pass, think the decision to attempt the pass was the bigger mistake

    On replay have the say think MVE was way too far out to attempt the back pass to the keeper so was a poor decision to attempt in the fist place, he's nearly at the half way line when he plays it.

    Woud be a brave decision but would consider having Sheaf on the bench and playing one of Allen or Eccles. Sheaf either wants to play in the same place as Grimes or he's trying to play a little further ahead like Torp was but isn't very good at that aspect of the game

    Get your point but it's not wrong on Collins, Bassette and Binks though so can see some of the reasoning

    Does show a little bit of a lack of tactical awareness imo. He did we'll against a tired defence when the game was stretched and they were chasing the match, completely different to how tonight's match was going to be.

    Probably same back 4 and midfield 3 but tinker with the front 3. Think Simms should start, and you tell him to just try and tire out the Sunderland defence. Smash into them every chance you get and run the centre backs ragged. Haji probably doesn't deserve to start, one good match since he's...

    Chin up lads, we're still in the tie in the second leg. Lots of possession with no real chances created, we were pretty poor. Big decisions for Lampard to make on the front three as Haji was hopeless and the game really didn't suit BTA strengths

    Playoff Semi Final 1st Leg Bristol City - Sheffield Utd 08/05/25 8pm ko

    Blatant red card for the Bristol player, double jeopardy is for genuine attempts to win the ball for things like miss timed tackles. If the scenario plays our exactly the same but the Bristol player doesn't wrap his legs around and play the ball after the foul, it would still be a penalty and...

    Thomas Asante

    Asanate was brilliant when he came on today, strong case for him to start ahead of Simms next match

    Ben Wilson 9 -time to give him the respect he deserves. Lots of people can't see past the argument that he's been a number 2 for most of his career so must be rubbish. Never let us down and to come into a game of this magnitude and put in that performance says something about him.

    It's a myth that Collins suits our style more. Unless our style is conceding goals via goalkeeping errors. First it was Collins was good at sweeping and suits the high defensive line, Collins then disproves this against Burnley and Luton with his poor decision making costing us two goals. This...

    Honestly can't see us winning with Collins in goal, Middlesbrough are going to be throwing everything at the keeper and defence for this one.
