Looking wide open at the moment.

Decent starting 11 but still worried given our recent form. Must get at least a point today..

We look tired and lacking bite. I think the squad depth is to blame - injuries etc. We need more options.

5 straight defeats and barely a chance on goal created. Tough games ahead. I think we are now performing at the level we expected at the start of the season. Worse today though, to lose to a League 1 side in the quarter finals of a cup is utterly embarrassing.

People will speak of knee jerk reactions and meltdown. But what can you really say to 5 straight defeats and tough games coming up? 10 straight defeats not beyond the realms of possibility!

Even the most optimistic fan can't see many wins in the upcoming 4-5 games. With Everton next and we are up against Chelsea, Arsenal and Man Utd by this time next month. Can't see where the next win, or the next goal is coming from.

Momentum just not in our direction at the moment. As with most games recently, when we go behind it's pretty much over from that point.

Players like Isgrove and Mayuka would struggle to get into the Sheff Utd side. This is how limited our squad depth is.

I don't know how we've become so poor. Staring a 5 defeats in a row.

1-0 and seriously in danger of going out.

Forster keeping us in it at the moment. What has happened to our team?

We seem to have lost a lot of belief recently. It shows today, not much coming off and barely a chance on their goal.

Very lacklustre so far. Shane Long seems to perform the same at whatever level .. ie. gives the ball away almost every time.

Time to change our approach. Pelle alone up front not producing goals.

Wheels have come off then I guess.

I thought he looked decent on his first appearance. Certainly not overawed by the situation. Just surprised he replaced Tadic and not Mane when he came on!

We just don't get what our effort deserves. We did well in the last 3 games for the most part but ended up losing them all. That's the difference though right; these other teams have the world class / player / spark that makes the difference in these kinds of games.

We lack attacking edge now. Goal looking unlikely ..

Mayuka on to save the game!

Forster should have saved it. Simple as that. A bad mistake from him there. But we should already be out of sight.

Predictable winner from Utd.

Utd have been so poor we should have ended this match already. But for as long as it stays 1-1 you can see a last minute winner from Rooney or the like. We have not taken our chances and it could cost us dearly. Time for Mane to come off... oh he's taken off Tadic!

That's it!! Pelle!

Just waiting for Utd to score on the counter. That's how it feels, we need to score soon!

United are there for the taking if we can just get the final ball right. They are awful so far!
