yeah he's nowhere near, Hopefully Torp is ready to go as while it's never ideal to start Allen he his issues would be less apparent in a 3 man midfield.

Why do you always slag off gimoc when he’s not even here to respond, weird behaviour….its clear he’s just on the wind up so don’t know why so many believe him

Take too many players out, change too many things and the system that’s built on everyone being really well drilled can’t manage it.

MVE and Dasilva to come back in, and I really don’t want to see a Grallen midfield again if we can at all help it.

Yes hopefully the midfield never gets that weak again. Even with everyone back I'd be loaning Andrews out and getting a replacement in.

Letting that carthorse score a hat trick should lead to some sort of special fine for the back line too. You have one job, man mark the only attacking outlet. Couldn’t do it.

It’s clear what we should do in January but simply next week though, I’d push Torp and Eccles to start both games and rest up after. We cannot start with that midfield again, end of discussion.

Agree but too late to do that now, it was an odd choice of game for it to begin with.

He's good at what he does but no one can deny that the defending wasn't awful.

The 3rd was particularly bad.

Need to bounce back against a difficult side. Least we’ll have one more day of rest to try and get some players fit enough to start.

Quite possibly yes, originally Mrs BSB was going to go this one but she's out with the flu just now.

Has sounded that way. Even at the start it was “hopefully before the break”. I think it’s likely we don’t see him before the WBA game.

I imagine it’s more about their promotion schedule than our match schedule.

For 1 game I'd love this forum to all sit in the same block, we'd need the police for segregation amongst ourselves

Would have been happy with a draw but think it's important we win one game before internal break and I'd like to get it out the way here!

Didn't realise that, but our match schedule should take priority.

I suppose the big question is, are Sheffield United mediocre or lower?
The noun mediocrity means the quality of being average or ordinary. You can't be great at everything — in some areas, we all fall into mediocrity.

I'm a bit worried if Kitching is suspended and Thomas is unfit: presumably that would mean Woolfenden and Bidwell as our CBs, assuming Latibeaudiere isn't match fit.

MVE and Da Silva obviously come straight back in. Grimes, Eccles and Torp are the obvious midfielders and in the continuing absence of Rudoni I'm more than happy with that.

Sakamoto must play and I thought Ephron was decent last night and his goal was excellent. That would leave us having to choose between Thomas-Asante, Simms or Wright up front. There is an argument to play BTE on the left in place of EMC: I think that would be harsh on Ephron but equally harsh to omit BTE. As to the remaining place I'm tempted to rest Haji and start Simms.

If Eccles and Torp are fit enough to come off the bench no way they can't be fit enough to both start Tuesday.

Need both of them with Grimes in midfield.

Then one of EMC, Haji and BTA need to hit the bench. Right now not fussed who.

If Thomas is fit then - assuming Kitch isn't suspended - should be back to 1st chocie defence too.
