[Albion] Sheffield United vs Brighton & Hove Albion *** Official Match Thread ***

[Mackenzie]

I'm quite impressed with that. First time this season we've shown real physical and defensive resolve. A Hughtonesque performance. I didn't think we had it in us anymore.

Not a bad point and hopefully a springboard for a win next week against palace.

I agree, a bit of aggression helps a lot.

That was a pen arm well away from his body greyhound on his shoulder disgrace of a decision

 

[Napier]

Great point and we fought really hard for it. Just a shame we are so ponderous going forward and give the ball away far too easily. That said, Shef pressed very well and were usually there for the second ball.

 

[BrickTamland]

A win against Palace will make us favourites for survival.

Very much this. It was nice to play with some pace today. Bring on the palace.

 

[TottonSeagull]

Decent result and a good battling performance. Will mean nothing though unless we beat Palace at the Amex.

if that had been liverpool

 

[lawros left foot]

What is the point of VAR, all the controversy and upset, and it is still getting basic decisions wrong.

 

[pocketseagull]

might be heresy but i think i prefer this kind of battling performance to games where we have 70% possession and do nothing with it

 

[Frankworthington]

Ugly performance but a great result.

Yawn yawn

Positive side
A point more than two of the teams below us, two more of the teams below us with tough away games tomorrow. A point against one of the best performing sides in the division this season, who outplayed us at home. A point way from home, having fallen behind.

Negative side
Cheap goal to concede, leading to another game without a clean sheet. Now one win in 12. Didn't sound like we troubled them much (but then, it sounded on the radio like Dunk was in danger of being sent off when he was the victim, so that may not be accurate).

Yep. I'd be quite happy with an effective counter attacking team.....Leicester won the title doing just that.

Still a fan of Potterball but pleased to see the change in tactics and personnel today to take on SU in a physical battle. Showed we can dig in when we need to.

 

[BensGrandad]

Well fought for point against the odds.

 

[Swansman]

Heroic point and performance. More of a war than a football game.

 

[Coldeanseagull]

Ugly performance but a great result.

Just do one, I'm starting to agree with you

 

[Uh_huh_him]

Very happy with that.

Plenty of grit against a team who are flying.

 

[zefarelly]

A physical battle and honours even is about right.

We have so very little going forward from open play
