Being totally outplayed by f**ing Sheffield Utd. Can we have Bruce back?

No, fuck Bruce. He's a ******.

It's the first time I've seen us since Boxing Day and it's terrible. Astounding how we have changed from the first few games.
But there looks like little change lately. The same players shuffled around to no great effect.

Jedinak looks totally off the pace

Has he ever been ON the pace?

Can somebody please explain why I should have faith that Dean Smith will get it right here?

Nope. Embarrassingly out of his depth.

Jedinak showing his passing range again. Straight to a Utd player. Again

Errr, I went to Bramall Lane and saw the dreadful Potatohead team that day.

It's not about grit and determination, it's about pace and positioning, they're playing at a high tempo and our midfield and defence are all over the place trying to stay with the runners. It's resulting in us being 8-9 men behind the ball and they just camping out in our half.

Smith needs to start looking at how to get more energy into the midfield with the players he has.

Wilder has done such a good job there. Simple system, players all bought or developed for the system. They know what they are doing at all times and play to their strengths. We look like we haven't got a fucking clue.

And we haven't done that for years and years.

Smith, if afforded the time, will do it. He's having to use players that can't fit the sort of system he wants to play.

We're shit. My Blades supporting wife is currently smug.

He’s just picked Jedinak. Clueless.

Not fucking starting with Jedinak might have been a good idea.

Who else has he got to pick? They're all shit.
