Sheff Utd (H) - Match Thread - 16/07/2020

[Aus Fox]

Bloody brilliant half. Luke Thomas, outstanding, cool, composed and a Premier League assist on debut.

Ndidi is winning everything. The back 3 rarely tested. 
Let’s keep going and back up, two good halves of football needed.

[Pliskin]

Lovely stuff. 

[coolhandfox]

Just need to turn out for the second half!

 

Great half boys 

[Webbo]

I think Nacho will come on for Perez about 75th minute

[Tuna]

Superb debut from Thomas so far, looks assured, confident and quality delighted he got an assist and a terrific finish from Perez.

 

We're well on top and need to keep up the pressure because I think we'll need more than 1 goal to win it.

Really pleasing to see Youri playing at his best today, we know what he's capable of and it's great to see him taking the game by the scruff of the neck and affecting it so well.

[UniFox21]

Need to replicate that second half. Sheff. United will come out fighting second half.

[NaijaFox]

GET IN LADS! 

 

One more half of the same.

[Blanchflower78]

Thomas showing end product, nice to see. Youri again looking happier out there and tenacious. Barnes full of energy.  No complaints, only slight niggle we could maintain the levels of pressure and look to force a second. 

[Dames]

Thomas having a good game. I was wrong to compare him to Harry Worley.

I want to thank Wes Morgan for that first half.

Yeah, I was nervous about him, but he’s been fantastic!

But again we get a goal and really just go into contain mode, don't think we've done anything since the goal have we? 

Think that's a bit more game management from us. Be a bit more patient but at the same time, stop them from getting momentum. 

You're at your most dangerous after you've just scored! 

[winteriscoming]

Please brendan no negative subs 🙏🙏

[Tom12345]

Thomas is showing promising signs - appears intelligent, has quick feet, vision and a good pass. I like him.

 

Otherwise, I cannot stand watching this backpassing cr*p. They are in the final third but then still keep passing it back and ultimately to Kasper to pump it up??? Why not just have a go from the final third!!! I fear we will lose that mental edge again if we keep playing like this. Have a go!

[Arkie Bennett]

So far, so good. Don't fuch it up with half time subs, Brendan.

[RoboFox]

Vards, Kasper and Tielemans off.

 

The kit man, the tea lady and Phil the club liaison officer on.

[Aesc]

Something tells me Youri REALLY wants Champions League.

This is the reaction we wanted so far!

Hopefully Brendan will keep them confident so they don't get nervous about a repeat of last time.

[Tuna]

Some half time comedy in order I think:

 

[Guest Kopfkino]

Fully expect them to bring on some mobility up front, it's bread and butter for these three to just head the ball back to where it came from

[Brooksy]

Early goal in the second half please

Cue 2 half time subs!

We should probably completely change the personnel and shape.

 

The greatest element of all is the element of surprise afterall.

[slymunn]

Good half. Hopefully the second half will go as well 🙏

Oh I misunderstood I thought the post was heckling those who wanted Chilwell or Fuchs in the team 😂😂 Good point actually, although haven't Seen Albrighton or Ricardo either. 

Ricardo we've seen a few times in the stands in previous games. Can't remember seeing chilly though? Perhaps he's in London for some reason?

Kit man is injured after we all saw the new kit leak.

[Dahnsouff]

Reckon Youri will need to come off later, just hopefully much later and probably for Praet

[Guest seanfox778]

Decent half, well played. Would love a 2nd to ease the nerves. C'mon lads!!!
