I'm in isolation now.. having tested positive last week.. rest of the family are negative so am in "proper" isolation now . The dream of going to a match, even one that wont come true is a real tonic!

Left Back : The young lad from Man United (Wlliams?).. on loan.. would enable us to play 4 at the back more easily.. Strikers : Origi was one for me in the summer but I also not averse to Andone.. this lengthy injury may have given him time to reassess his situation, career etc..

Really pleased to get a ticket, but convinced there is almost no chance of going.... "So you're saying there's a chance?".

and yet some on here slaughter us for not being able to break them down.. a settled side possibly but arguably limited options, - imagine GP would get all sorts of stick on here if his 3 strikers had each gone more than 15 games without a PL goal and he insisted on playing them. poor old Maupay...

One of those teams picked up a point, lost no ground on the teams below them and made a point on the team above them. If people can really accept that a 0-7 reverse, is somehow more positive than a 1-1 draw then I am staggered.

Sure - agree with most of your points, just not the one that we simply float the ball into strikers and that even Aguero would struggle playing with us. I am not suggesting we are Man City, but we are more creative than it feels and a striker in form would reasonably do pretty well with us atm?

But we do this- quite a lot I think.. I agree with much of your post, but this is the point for me.. Just yesterday's game, but plenty of other examples I think.. Lallana slides Connolly in 1st half, .. shoots weakly and not widely enough of the GK. Trossard cut-back for Maupay 1st half : weak...

if he doesn't persist with them, who does he play if you accept that a player cannot play every minute or every game? Murray has shown in his last season and (evidently at Watford) that he is not up to this level of football anymore. He would have scored the goal that Connolly missed - but the...

Ah, but its not every Clubs vision.. it may be lots of clubs "dreams" but that is of course very different - the vision needs a plan/strategy etc that you act on. Survival may well be the aim this year again, with the more important goals of having some talent to sell at the end of it to...

This is "English Football" at its best.. we can throw "lightweight" around like people throw "passion, fight, etc. " around. Apparently, having read much of the angst on here, Sheff United are a terrible team.. only picked up 1 point etc.(they're not of course!) On this thread, is the...

Have a look at their matches and results.. They have lost to Leeds, Villa, Wolves, City, Liverpool, Arsenal (Oct) West Brom, West Ham, Chelsea, Saints, Leicester and Man United. All of the defeats bar Saints/Chelsea were by 1 goal. They scored against Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal, Burnley, Man...

We dont get more points for winning at home.. we have so far had enough points to be out of the bottom 3 .. we got a record tally last season.. surely some other stats you want to use than just home results. Only Man United, Chelsea and Southampton have won at the Amex this season!!

quite good this leicester side aren't they?

Sit in the North Stand and pay less ?

I have never been that convinced with Connolly as a finisher. He seems to have one "type" of finish that he is comfortable with, dropping in side and bending to the far corner (Tottenham last season, Burnley last season, Newcastle this for example). His running and movement is useful, so it...

I didint think so to be honest (Ali J/Veltman) .. I could understand the notion that Ali J would provide more width and crosses from wider areas. he didn't make the impact, apart from the one cross that Connolly made, but seemed reasonable decision at the time to me. Pascal was one I did wonder...

Do teams that dont "give a S*@t " keep scoring late goals? Thats the one accusation that I don't think can be levelled at the team. Presumably Sheff United's fans should say the same given they have 2 points this season..

A team struggling to score goals struggles to beat another struggling team in a game at the bottom of the table where losing is the worst outcome for both. I am not surpsied at todays game - genuinely.. we all knew it was going to be horrible, even those who want GP "out" apparently, knew what...

We never had 3 points so a point gained. Could and should have been more but a point was all I expected (albeit I wanted 2-1 win the prediction thread!) , and ultimately grateful to get 1 given the way the game went..

4 4 2 2 .... a couple of 1's surely?
