lexicon Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 All to play for here. Sheff United aren't up to much. The issue we have is the CM is too compact and all about a metre away from one another at all times - we don't have anyone attacking through the middle.

A'Villan Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Nakamba and Ramsey ahead of the alternatives is an interesting option, but I'm glad to see him offering opportunities to squad players. However, today, they aren't delivering, changes needed. Barkley and/or Luiz added, or perhaps Sanson. I'd personally love to see Sanson, but not sure this is the right situation, would be a great way to announce himself if he did influence a win though.

SU definitely read the pre game comments. So much cockiness and arrogance. Change the record. People said that if we play well we would win. We haven't played well. Stop trying to point score. It's really tiring. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you aren't matching them for energy and work rate you can easily end up losing. Don't be fooled by the league position. Every game in this league is hard.

Good chance for red didn't even get a booking. The one where the three of them all slid in together? I think it looked a little late - yellow would have done. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted March 3, 2021 Moderator Share Posted March 3, 2021 I'd consider Davis on for Ramsey or even Nakamba - we've got to change the shape and find a way to keep the wing backs defending. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thunderball Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 2 minutes ago, mjmooney said: Define 'not good'. They are playing with passion and commitment, they've been first to every 50-50 ball. Player for player, our team may be 'better'. As a team, Sheffield are playing better than us, so far. Goal aside I think we have been far more telling in attack and don’t deserve to be behind, but I am not saying we should be ahead, far from it, we need to improve and sharpen up. We have the ability, hopefully Nakamba unshackled Barkley and he is hungry to prove he should be playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
useless Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Feels like the kind of game that we're never going to score in, not creating nearly enough chances. Was surprised at the starting eleven, was okay for Leeds, but think we need something different for this game where we're expected to take game to the opposition. If we lose will be one of the worst results in a long time. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lerner's Driver Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 2 minutes ago, The_Steve said: Obvious foul on Ollie not given. We've been too pedestrian. McGinn too flat as Nakamba warmed into the game. Everyone is making silly unforced errors. Sheffield United are a turgid team, we are making it easy for them. We aren't playing the intensity we need. Shocking goal to concede. Unacceptable at this level. We've had good chances. Still much to play for. Good to have options on the bench still. That is us for most of this season. Woeful at keeping the ball. Everything inevitably breaks down and the hoofing doesn't help. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ender4 Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 They’ve finally shown a couple of replays of the penalty... and what a shock, it was a definite penalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BleedClaretAndBlue Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Traore had to score, McGinn needs a right foot. Pen for me all day on Watkins. Scruffy game, think Ramsey’s found it hard to get into. Would give Sanson a half now. Doug should be fresh, he can add some zip to our game. Do or die now. Come on Villa not lost yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penguin Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 How did Watkins not get a penalty yet anytime players for certain clubs get breathed on in the box they watch it for 5 minutes to see if they can justify giving something. Got absolutely clattered with no attempt on the ball ffs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WooJung Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Ramsay has been a bit of a passenger, I like him much better coming off the bench, looks twice the player when he does. Hope he learns from this. I wonder if it's time for Sanson to start games, any configuration of midfield players we've tried lately has been very poor in possession. We only look comfortable when we have a lead to defend, and that hasn't happened very often lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the_eristic Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Oh look, it's another "Villa struggle against the scrappy side they're expected to beat" episode. It's like our players have a hard time with the weight of expectation. Also, poor from the ref so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
