Re: 2023/24: Sheffield United v Burnley – Ticket Information

Do we know if its paper tickets or digital? They sent my Liverpool tickets to my parents email address and seemingly they may have done the same again despite asking the ticket office to sort out the email. Everything should have been signed up to me.

Re: Stick or twist?

At 2 nil down today, I would rather have taken the pretty anonymous Amdouni off at HT for Foster and played a traditional two up front. Whip stuff in. Yes against physical CBs but the game was lost. We have been relying on one striker all season and that's not working well.

No actual leaders in that team. You look to experience, for example Rodriguez. But he isn't a natural leader.
