There is good cause to be skeptical about Collins going forward, but there is no reason to argue that he did well tonight.

The people suggesting our season is over because our 22 year-old keeper got injured are hysterical.

Biggest miss tonight was Kitching , not just his physicality but also his leadership

I agree, he made some strong saves and was good on the ball. His appalling form this season though means he starts with a lot to prove.

Dovin is clearly superior in any case.

He's openly stated he wants another crack in the Dutch Eredivisie , Feyernoord wasn't it ?

Either way, I'll be highly surprised if he's with them next season. I don't think he'll go Feyernoord yet. He might end his career there but he's still got a good few years of prem football in him yet.

If Dovin ends up being out for the rest of the season then we’ll just have to muddle through with our two remaining senior keepers, one of whom was first choice last year and the other who’s a former Gold Glove winner who’s just signed a new contract. “Season over” indeed.

United were just more clinical. On another day they don't get the first 2. Just one of those days when it clicks for them. The 50/50s all went their way in the 1st half. Also the sign of a good team tho.

The absence of Kitching and Rudoni from KO just lowers the intensity of the team. They are both so direct and make a huge difference.

I don't know if he's got the mentality or discipline to get himself into the physical condition to be a success in the premier league . On natural ability it is a no brainer

If by Prem football you mean getting relegated from it every other season with these.
Prem teams didn't want him or he'd have gone in the summer. If he was more dedicated to the fitness side of the game he'd have had much better options but I don't think he'll change at this point.

Statistically Collins is one of the league’s worst keepers this season. Let’s hope he’s had a revelation in the last few months.

Like Leeds, they were better than us. Players like Hamer are just a level above, hence why he's on far more than anyone in our squad.

A draw would be a very good result on Saturday and then it's a massive run in.

Hopefully he did. Majority of our away fans are the proper fans though. It’s the idiots online who cry on twitter and take the piss out of the way he speaks.

Imagine being a grown man and battering a young lad for his voice. Weird behaviour.

Ask that crampy woman from Twitter or Lyndon with the drum. They set the rules for what we can and can’t do.

I can’t believe our own supporters applauded that lard arsed Judas twat when he come over to take a corner when we’re getting beat… right after the dirty pricks crocked our goalkeeper

Absolutely ashemed, loser mindset

You don't book a player because the other player gets injured , looked a genuine attempt to win the ball.

Lick Sheffield’s ring piece after they’ve crocked our goalie and beat us - nice to see where your priorities lie

Overall take from me is;
We played well in possession for long periods . Dominated a lot of the ball but EMC was poor and MVE was scared to put a ball in. To be fair though the blame lies with Franks omitting Ellis to have played up front with Haji. We needed that physicality tonight.
They were very clinical in front of goal and that was all the difference was.
Oh and Kitching back in for Binks please ASAP !
We move on 🩵

Having played and managed for 25 years in my experience the worst injuries are completely accidental and freak occurrences .

I could actually see him at a mid table prem club as a bit part player. But no one will spend the sort of money that Sheff Utd want for someone who'll play 15 minutes every week.

It was caused by Dovin turning back inside and the forward catching him as he tried to win the ball
