Re: ARTICLE: Two players come out on top in Sheffield United win
One of those occasions he gave it away, it was close to it costing us a second goal. He had a good game overall, and I gave him 8, but had Trafford made that one error he'd have been getting 4s and 5s. No he wouldn't :lol: He'd be getting 4s and 5s if he gave it away and slowed play down and passed...

Re: Tonights Football
It's kinda ironic that Dyche is the one to win the Klopp's last ever Merseyside derby - bloodied Klopp's nose the first time back in 2016 with that 2-0 home win against Liverpool in 2016 and we did it again a few times, upsetting Klipperty each and every time.
