Bad decision from ref. Hope it doesn't cost us.

Solid but offered zero going forward, and our full backs getting forward is how we play.

We're 1-0 up and he's a fullback. Perfectly understandably why he's not bombed forward.

Hope this doesn’t blow up in our face... no one can snatch a draw from the jaws of victory like we can....

Need to keep the ball. We have the formation for it now. Use Stephens.

Bombed forward? He’s not been forward. Even at 0-0

Wood is proper liability this game.

Get him off!

Ora defeat, remember refs don’t like us to win.

I wish when we were on top Burnley would realise they remain a single error away from dropping two points by doing this.

its a ploy by Dyche so he can get more transfer money in January from the new owners

If I was Ben Mee I'd be telling Wood to divi his wages between the rest of the team, they are all carrying him.

4-5-1 another string to SDs bow

Get the takeover done and I’d settle for the season to be null and void after tonight!

Clever from Brownhill buying the foul.

Absolutely dire game. We’ve offered precisely nothing against the worst PL side there has ever been. I suppose the win is all the matters though. Pfft.

Not always and it doesn't always work, but if anybody expected us to steamroller Sheff Utd they were in dreamland, tonight was always going to be a tight affair, games against them generally have been down the years.

4-3-3 very much improved us. If we're adding 4-5-1, then this is positive. SD is getting more confidence in switching things around when needed.
