Bossman Blessed It Posted 19 August 2019 Posted 19 August 2019 Think Rodger's will change it around a bit for this one as we won't need two midfielders screening the back four. I would like to see Maddison and Tielemans play a little more centrally, with Praet coming in for Choudhury.
Finnaldo Posted 19 August 2019 Posted 19 August 2019 If we have any ambition it's a game we need to win, but Wilder have set them up well and they really have a sense of us under Pearson so we really have to turn up if we want to win at Bramall Lane. If we manage it, 5 points out the first three games and unbeaten is a great start.

They both get the absolute best out of their players though, the comparisons to Cardiff that I've seen are a bit unfair because Sheff United play much better football.
Ric Flair Posted 19 August 2019 Posted 19 August 2019 A Vardy opener inside 10 mins would be lovely. YOU FIIIIIIIILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL UP MY SENSES

It wasn't supposed to be a one-to-one comparison, I should've said, I meant more in terms of team spirit, he's a Sheffield United man he's got a squad that plays for him and the club, with a Sheffield United lad as captain, the will to play for each other really shows like us under Nige and the title-winning season. You're in terms of the football they play, that's why I said we have t be very careful to start well and not get sucked into their game, I've got a feeling Bramall Lane will be a nasty place to go this year.

YOU FIIIIIIIILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL UP MY SENSES Former Wednesday academy product, isn't he? Nothing beats a bit of stirring up derby feelings. Hope he finds his scoring boots again, and that in Sheffield. Would be so fitting. He's never played at Bramall Lane with us, was on the bench in the League Cup win two years ago - and only played against Wednesday twice in the Championship.
AKCJ Posted 19 August 2019 Posted 19 August 2019 Captained Vardy in my fantasy team for this one. He's going to get booed and he's going to score. As is tradition.
foxy boxing Posted 19 August 2019 Posted 19 August 2019 These are the games we should be winning if we have genuine top six ambitions. they have made a decent start to the season. an early goal from us would be nice. we will no doubt boss possession and hopefully the midfield as well. get at these early on and keep the pressure on.

Yeah, scored the winner in the FA Cup against them at home under Puel which he enjoyed greatly
TMELcfc Posted 19 August 2019 Posted 19 August 2019 Start like we did against Chelsea, they’ll punish us the same way, they like to overload you / press you. I hope we start aggressively like the second half otherwise it’ll we have been a pretty underwhelming start to the season...
jayfox26 Posted 19 August 2019 Posted 19 August 2019 Far too early to say this is a must win but a large proportion of our fan base will start to turn on (enter scapegoat player/Rodgers here) if we go 3 games without a win. They are a decent side and won't make it easy but we have got to be beating these if we want any chance of pushing towards top 6 this season.

I agree, especially with Man United, Spurs and Liverpool in the 5 games after this one. Wins v Sheff United and Bournemouth needed.
yorkie1999 Posted 19 August 2019 Posted 19 August 2019 Just don't allow them to press us for the first 10 minutes, hoof it up the other end until the game settles down, then take them apart.

ARTY_FOX Posted 19 August 2019 Posted 19 August 2019 They didn’t look great against Bournemouth opening day. It was a terrible game but thought Bournemouth looked comfortable for the most part and just ended up paying the price for not finishing them off. They work hard though and they have the same sort of togetherness that seems so familiar.... Bad Leicester show up it won’t be easy. Will frustrate a lot of people. Good Leicester turn up and we’ll win comfortably. 3-0 us.
Monsell1976 Posted 19 August 2019 Posted 19 August 2019 Is it only me that thinks Maddison is over rated, steady player but would drop him and put in praet. His set pieces are average, his final ball questionable, think the lad needs to feel his place is under threat to step the quality up a level. In fairness to him, the whole side barring the big lad at the back have been mediocre

Rodgers needs to work out how to play him with Tielemans more than anything else. He will only get better as the season progresses.
Hollyfox Posted 19 August 2019 Posted 19 August 2019 They're a tough side that worked incredibly hard. We'll have to stand strong against these and put up with a hostile environment. Vardy will love this but he'll have to not get envoled in any silly off the ball stuff as he could be targeted

MC Prussian Posted 19 August 2019 Posted 19 August 2019 Maybe break it up a little in midfield for this one: Schmeichel Ricardo Pereira Evans Söyüncü Chilwell (back from injury already?) Ndidi Tielemans Albrighton (right) Maddison Barnes (left) Vardy Stretch it out wide, hit them on the counter.
