Rudoni is outperforming COH on these metrics this season and indeed last season too. Again, playing for a worse team in both seasons. This has Rudoni v COH 23/24 and 24/25...

The time to sign him was in the window. As soon as we got to September, it wouldn’t have been worth signing a player who’d need 2-3 months to get up to speed and by then, the January window would be upon us and really we need a better player signed. We missed a trick not signing him in the...

Based on what? Compare the players this season and if you feel Rudoni has been lacking… One look at the stats show why Sheffield U fans have such a negative view on him. He’s not contributed much at all in a team towards the top of the table.

Yes because COH is showing he’s a much better player than Rudoni in a team performing much better than ourselves atm. But wait, the statistical comparison shows that Rudoni is outperforming COH in many metrics this season and in a worse team. Source...

I’m sure you felt that way at the time after we’d lost 4 on the bounce in September and had won 2 in 11 games that season. You’re speaking with the benefit of hindsight but if we visit threads from that season up to November, the place was probably as toxic as it is now. I believe things will...

He was around last year when we lost to most of the top half teams. Where we had the same kind of frailties we have this season. What we actually miss is a player like Hamer.

Mick Beale? I’d even prefer Ian Beale at the helm. What a laughable alternative to Robins. He’s an absolute blagger.

I genuinely don’t think he’s all that. There’s a reason he ultimately lost his place last season. That Dec-Feb stretch everything he touched turned to gold and his goal scoring record was unlike anything else in his career. From that moment, we weren’t going to afford his demands. I’ll risk the...

You’re being an emotional wreck this season Saddle.

He’s also our only wide player to make a goal contribution. Sakamoto is benefitting from his flash in the pan from in Xmas to Feb last season. In reality, he’s also done v little this season too and it goes under the radar. Whilst Simms gets slagged off for last night in a game he improved us...

I don’t get this narrative of Robins looking ‘lost’ on the touch line. His demeanour hasn’t changed from the glory days. It’s catastrophising and it happens every year because many of you lot on here are emotional whenever something goes wrong or someone plays badly. Get to Xmas, take stock...

I’m not sure they’re that great a partnership. Comparing our record against top half teams in 22/23 and 23/24 paints a picture. Both Eccles and Sheaf played in those seasons. However, both of these players are good progressive deep lying playmakers - imo Sheaf is a lot better at that job without...

For sure, the first thing you need when you have a losing streak is to break the duck. We need to avoid defeat v Luton and go into two fixtures consecutively where our recent form against Middlesborough and Sunderland has been favourable going into the international break. There’s this fixation...

Well it was because AV had a lot of internal enemies and was clearly sacked for gross misconduct. Robins wouldn’t have allowed it unless something was genuinely wrong.

It’s a form thing. When you’re in a rut you just need a result to get points on, in my view we had the better of the chances and deserved to win. Again, we’re one point worse off than we were after 11 games in 22/23, it’s important to keep patient and not chuck the baby out with the bath water...

They were but when confidence is so low, you need something to latch into. QPR are also in a similar position to us you feel i.e. punching below their weight. Robins has to extract what positives we can from the game. If one of the many Debby downers on here were managers, they’d be slagging...

We need to add experience to the group. There’s too many young players with nothing to balance it out. When you’re in a rut like we are, there needs more than just Sheaf to lead. Lati, to be fair looks like a leader too but we just need more.

Top half and a lot is riding on the January transfer market.

When you‘ve won 1 game in 9 and lost two on the bounce with a midweek away game, we just needed to not lose. To be frank, we had the better chances too so we can take a positive out of the game performance wise even if the result wasn’t ideal.

He’s scored 2 goals (well, as one was ruled as an OG) and 2 assists. Whereas, Torp, Eccles, Sheaf and Allen have combined for a total of 0 goal contributions. Therein lies your problem. 0 goal contributions in 14 games from our midfielders and we’re scapegoating our advanced players. We don’t...
