    If you saw how demoralised they were against Soton it would be embarrassing to lose against them.

    It will be a new low if we dont win. We have had a few lows but Fcuk me if we dont beat them its got to be the end for the man in charge
     
    I think this place will implode if we do not win this , 1 point in 12 games is a shocking stat, no wins this season, i wonder what the odds are on them getting there first win against us :lol:

    We should blow them of the park but you just know we will win by a 1 goal margin and make them look decent
     
    Good opportunity to use our squad a bit.

    Rest Bruno and put Pogba in at 10? Fred and VdB behind him. Mata/Rashford /Martial up front?
     
    1 point all season. You can guarantee they will beat us. We always love giving a shit team points.
     
    Just hold on a little longer, Sheffield United. Don’t worry, points are on the way. Just a few more days... :lol:




    :(

    0 wins in 14 league games, possibly 15 if they don't beat Southampton today. We should really be putting these guys to the sword. They have been very bad for a long time.

    They got spanked 3-0 today. So they haven't won in 12 and have scored just 1 point this season. They are statistically the worst team in the league.
    They may beat us.
     
    Seems like a nice opportunity to rest a few, I therefore fully expect to see as strong a line up as possible.
     
    Sheffield United at home this season

    Wolves 0-2 ( two goals in the first 5 mins, 4 shots on target for Wolves in that match)

    Leeds 0-1 (88th minute winner for Leeds)

    Fulham 1-1

    Man City 0-1

    West Ham 0-1 (3 shots on target for West ham in that game)

    Leicester 1-2 (injury time Vardy winner)

    Surely you'll have to start picking up some results - you can't be sitting on one point while there are about 10 teams in the mix for the top spots. I guess you'll start against us...

    Yes but I’m terms of Wilder’s job, he’s safe. Can’t see where we will pick up points from but we will see.
     
    We should be rotating a few players out for this game even if we play the likes of Mata we should still have enough to beat Sheffield.

    That escalated quickly :lol:

    Anyhow, I think I'd class @Footy van de Geek as an accelerationist. Wait for it to become worse, before it can get better. Some people argued that way with regards to Trump's victory in '16.

    While we still have a chance of silverware or mounting a serious title challenge, I don't see a benefit in a managerial change. But if it were a question of finishing 5th and winning nothing and going into next season with Ole again, or finishing 10th and getting a top manager in, I'd take the latter option all day long.

    These kinds of views reflect people's total lack of belief in Ole, not their support of the club, in my view at least.
     
    Hopefully Mata, Telles, Cavani and Tuanzebe start this one. Henderson should play too, since he is a bit better than Dave at set-pieces and I can see Sheffield counting on them in this one.

    0-2 United (Telles, Mata)
     
    Hope Deano starts, he deserves to face his old loan club. Need to match their intensity around the park. Rotate the squad for sure. Maybe have Fred play for an hour or so then get him sorted for Leeds. Pogba should start and hopefully he can perform like he did against West Ham, even without the goal.
     
    When I saw Sheff U's results recently I thought -- 'they need a game against United to motivate them'...kind of feel they are due a break, just hope it's not this week.
     
    Not only should we be winning this match but it is also an ideal opportunity to get our goal difference in a much healthier state.
     
    So Sheffield Utd have only 1 point in 12 games, only 1 team in the history of top flight English football have had a worse start to a season. Guess who?

    :lol: Definitely as it should.

    Seriously if that happen and this place did not implode, instead more insist on positive-ing all this shit then you have to ask questions. It's a matter of time till we start rawk-ishing.. then again there are already plenty of posts and threads showing we're going to that direction with all the blind positive support and all the delusions that we're on the right track with Ole like it's confirm he'll have the same impact as Klopp but need more time and all the other bs.
     
    It won’t be pretty, but we’ll grind out the win as we look to the more interesting fixture this weekend.

    0-2

    Listen, pal. Having 27k posts on an internet forum doesn't make you better than anyone else. People have different opinions to yours. Deal with it you internet gangster. There are several long established members who have said similar.

    The fact that some long term members of this forum generally think they're elite is quite sad. In the big bad world away from your keyboard or smart phone, your'e just another peasant like the rest of us.

    So keep your 27k posts, I probably have a bigger c*ck than you anyway.

    Hopefully they warn you for being smug feck.

    Wishing our club to lose games that are winnable and have been proven winnable in the last year to somehow get the manager "fired", even though there is a plan and we are still potentially at 2 pts from the top, is kind of a new one.

    Are we in a reality show or something now? :lol: that attempt to "hurt" him was hilarious.

    Some people are like this.
    It's just a selfish take on things. At the end, they'll tell that it's because they want to team to do well, they are looking at the big picture, bla bla bla...

    Now don't be like that mate. Yes, we struggled at the beginning but the only real blip after that is Arsenal. Now even if they scored one, we would still win it. The lads believe it, so as long as they have that belief, we will win those games and go and face Liverpool in a nice position. Cheer up!
     
    Must win! No ifs or buts, expect us to trounce them but who knows. I’d take a 1 goal win as long as we play alright.

    Doesn't look like they concede much chances. hopefully we convert what we get.
     
    I'm a bit grumpy about Leeds getting early Wednesday game at home and we get this shit away late on Thursday.

    I hope we will get through this but I have a bad feeling. Seen the last games of sheffs and it looks like they are building some better play. I hope I am wrong but I have a bad feeling they are coming into some sort of form at last. We should beat them anyway of course.

    Leeds will be a tough game though. Think they suits us good but we could have uses of some extra team energy on Sunday.. Energy that will be chopped on a Thursday night in Sheffield..
     
    Footy van de Geek said:
    The way I see it is we haven't won our last 2 games. A slip up against Sheffield and a defeat against Leeds would add to those results and tighten the noose.

    Good thing I couldn't care less about your opinion. I doubt you care about anyone's either.

    You must be devastated we’re 5 points off the top.
