Today's football

Post by ecc » Sun Dec 29, 2024 12:03 pm

Will the Blades return to form at home against the Baggies?

Norwich v QPR and North End v Wednesday make up the trio of early starts.

Shocking touch by the Baggies 17. Brilliant backheel by O’Hare for the assist.

West Brom's shape is all over the place. You can see how well we do off the ball when you compare.

West Brom have just lost Corberan and so Blades are playing them at a fairly decent time.

How have West Brom not equalised. Sheff Utd being lucky again with teams missing chances. It has been like that almost every match I have watched of theirs.

They've been rubbish for most of the season though, drawing most of their games.

Perhaps Sheffield have a few injuries but this is two games on the bounce where I am just not impressed by them.

West Brom are not a good side at all and there’s really not a lot between them

Didn’t watch the game but switched on to see Wilder walking off at HT looking very unhappy. Hopefully it leads to a morale destroying half time bollocking.

Is Hamer on 9 or 10 yellows?

Either way, he'll be suspended for two matches pretty soon.

Blades may well win this game but I still believe they are short of our level.

West Brom have had a lot of control, the Sheffield front three don’t track back and they are quite rigid, they have a weaker squad and their saving grace is the new injection of funds. Like us they have relied on their defence so the issue is which team is likely to continue that?

Wallace on. Good player to bring on. Were we actually after him when he left Millwall?

A promotion, by any means, will mean promotion in our last 5 seasons in the Championship. That must be a record?

I complained t’other day about shoves in the back not being given but that was as good a shoulder to shoulder as you’ll ever see. Well done Atwell.

This game just highlights how big the gap is to the prem.

Two of the supposed best teams in the league can barely complete a string of simple passes.

I wonder if moaning Wilder will mention the let off with Hamer.

Good on West Brom for still going for it. They could sit back and try for the point.
