Re: Wilder
They could have scored a couple in the first twenty, but that was through our own idiocy at the back as opposed to any decent play from them. He might want to focus more on how a team that struggles to score at this level has put NINE past them this season.

Re: Wilder
There's at least 3 goal saving, er, saves by Muric just on the 3 minute sky highlights, and the consensus on here was a poor performance from us until our first goal, a little after 35 minutes.
I'm not sure what's so out of order in what he's said? He's a manager trying to sugar coat a bad situation to the national press without throwing his players under the bus.

He’s right though. If that had been the other way round I would have expected Kompany to say the same.

Re: Wilder
Just like pretty much every match this season, we spent 20 minutes being miles the better team, but still managed to gift two easy chances to the opposition who were basically doing nothing. Unlike other teams Sheffield didn't take them as Muric made a couple of really good stops and the rest is history, but that's not been the case so often and won't be against decent teams.

Had Muric not kept out the early chances, it could have been a very different feeling tonight.

Considering the opposition that was up there with the worst half of footy we have played this season the first half,until scoring the two at the end of it. You could really see why we was both bottom two. Giving us credit though we somehow turned it into a thumping!
Re: Wilder
We were dominant but Sheff Utd were by far the better team in terms of chance creation and attacking threat until we scored the 1st.Dark Cloud wrote: ↑Sat Apr 20, 2024 7:04 pmJust like pretty much every match this season, we spent 20 minutes being miles the better team, but still managed to gift two easy chances to the opposition who were basically doing nothing.

Re: Wilder
Let’s not pretend the score did not flatter us…please.
First half we had plenty of possession but it was getting us absolutely nowhere for most of the first half. When our play broke down and Sheff United got the ball they made by far the better chances.
Muric was brilliant yesterday but the chances missed were sitters and the decision from Diaz to not just pass it 5 yards square to the player who had an open net was typical of a team at the bottom of the league.
Once we scored they lost whatever little shape they had. And once they went 2 down a lot of their players just gave up.
We improved in the second half and they got worse. They could not cope with Assignon and even worse if you are a United fan they did not change anything to stop his runs - if anything they gave him more space !!
Berge also totally dominated their midfield.
Not sure if they have bought McAtee from City but in the games I have seen them this year he’s their only quality player and a player I’d like to see at Burnley. Looks like a poor man’s Cole Palmer !!

Re: Wilder
Had Radio Sheffield on for a while on the return journey. Their fans were very critical of the goalkeeper and Souza. Sure I heard one fan say he believed he should be in the Brazil squad but what was holding him back was the poor quality of players he plays with for Sheffield Utd. . Oops!

Re: Wilder
I don’t know exactly- but I’d say very few games we should have been “out of sight” because there are very few teams in this league (probably none actually) who have struggled to create very good chances against us at some point in the game.Ptangyangkipperbang wrote: ↑Mon Apr 22, 2024 11:23 amA game last 90 mins how many games should we have been out of sight this season only to fall behind and go on to lose.Not saying we will stay up at all but our season remains alive for now
There is a number of games though that I think we should have won or picked up a point at least. Crystal Palace were awful against us on the Turf. West Ham were even worse - up until that last 10 minutes they were as bad as any team I’ve seen this season (Sheff United excepted). Man United were bang average and we should have beaten Bournemouth, Luton and Wolves.
Away from home we deserved to beat Forest (though they could have been 2 or 3 up themselves in the first 20 mins) and we could have picked up a point at Wolves.
All I was saying about Saturday was that 4-1 flattered us but I still think we were the better team and deserved our win.
I agree we are still hanging on in there. Hopefully we are catching Man United at a vulnerable time and they have shown that they can be beaten by most teams in this league. Let’s hope they play Maguire and Casemiro at the back again !!

Re: Wilder
It's true that Sheff Utd could have been 2 or 3-0 up at half time, but that would have meant them scoring all of their chances and us missing all of ours. That's not how football works. The McBurnie chance that Muric saved with his feet really should have been scored, but I don't think any of their other chances would have been more than 50/50's.
Going in level at half time would probably have been a fair reflection of the first half, but by the end we proved we were comfortably the better team over 90 minutes.

Re: Wilder
It was realistically their last desperate chance of survival, they had a stuffing at Turf Moor to try to get revenge for plus they were at home, not surprised they started so well.

Re: Wilder
Sorry bud. It is not logical to say ‘fact’ when no one knows what would have happened had Muric not been playing. Facts are things that have either happened or can be proved without any doubt to have happened, like mathematics or historical occurances that have actually happened. Facts are scientifically provable. Guesswork is probably as far removed from fact as it is possible to be. Yes we may have lost but we could have also won by a much bigger margin, or snow could have stopped play, or both teams could have walked off because they were tired. Without any shadow of proof with regard to defeat or otherwise saying ‘fact’ is actually just a nonesense. You are expressing an opinion…opinions are not ‘facts’.

Kormas not commas. Hardly any similarities between the 2! You need to research about curries & indian cuisine generally speaking & kormas aren't always mild you can add as much spice/kick into any particular dish to make it as hot as you wish.
