Teddeer Posted 3 March, 2021 Share Posted 3 March, 2021 Judging by the way they're putting themselves about today if we aren't right at it on Saturday there is a chance they'll turn us over. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sad saints fan Posted 3 March, 2021 Share Posted 3 March, 2021 The team we should be focusing on is Fulham , as they are in the last relegation place and their next 3 games are Spurs , Liverpool and Man City . I really don't see them getting many points from those 3 . So although not getting a decent result against Sheffield Utd would be bad for confidence it probably wont make much difference to league position compared to them. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rivers Posted 3 March, 2021 Share Posted 3 March, 2021 On 02/03/2021 at 11:54, Toussaint said: Just let in 1 goal, let in a disallowed goal, saved an offside goal out of how many shots, 1 legitimately on target? He's no better than he was previously, he just hasn't been tested in his recent appearances. I have been one of Fraser's most vitriolic critics over the course of his mostly shambolic career with us. I watch most games with my Dad, and he can't stand Fraser either. But. It's all well and good slating someone when they are genuinely shite, and make no mistake, he surely has been for much of his time here, but it is only fair to dish out the praise too on the rare ocasions it is merited. And we both agreed (having been anticipating some horror shows upon his recent recalls) that he has very clearly been working on his game. So credit where it is due to him. My biggest criticisms of him have consistently been his abysmal "command" of his box (eg, complete lack of it) and woeful distribution. Have to say there were very noticable improvements in these areas during his recent performances. Sure, he's always going to get down for shots like a tree being felled in the forest, due to posessing the agility of an oil tanker -- but really feel he looked so much better with the ball at his feet (by the end of his 2nd recent display I no longer shat myself whenever the ball was played back to him) and noticed a number of occasions where he confidently left the nosebleed territory of his six yard box to either claim or clear a few high balls. Having said all that, I can only hope that he keeps working hard to improve, and putting in some consistent performances. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Micky Posted 3 March, 2021 Share Posted 3 March, 2021 I think a big part of the game will be about who scores first. If we do, it might just give us the confidence to go on and win it. If they do, well we all know the script, there will be very little fight from us. Its totally set up for them now though, the pressure is off them, they are already down, nobody expects them to stay up. Of all the games they could've had after tonight, we are absolutely perfect for them, unfortunately. Sticking with my one nil loss prediction. Perhaps we'll win the next one.....

Sheffield United have already won 3 home games in 2021 and are way ahead of us in form (last 10 games) , I've not checked the odds but would expect bookies to make them favourites.

They need to come at us, they need to victory more than us, which could suit us. I'd like us to try sitting a little deeper on the press, and then full on counter. I think they'd find that hard. Playing like we did v Everton, or Newcastle I think we lose, 1st half v Wolves or Leeds, think we win. Wonder what side of Jekyll or Hyde will turn up.
