We moved our best attacking players (Kane and Eriksen) out of their best positions, and I hope MP learned it wasn't worth it. It's not even like we rested them, so I don't really see the benefit.

What an awful, unacceptable performance. Reminded me of the uncreative shit AVB served up before eventually getting sacked. No cutting edge, no imagination, Kane taken out of the game by being played in midfield. We now have an incredibly tough game to play at Bramall Lane where they will believe they can still beat us, their fans will believe and there will be obvious hometown advantage for the underdog. I seriously hope they don't get an early goal because as this team has shown at Palace they will fold under the slightest amount of pressure.

I agree. Sometimes (often, actually) League 1 teams will play their heart out and make it very difficult for the big boys. No, we didn't play particularly well but I feel like we're in control and we rotated effectively enough to keep challenging on all fronts and all that...

Whilst we played shit, the ref gave us very little. The left back as well got away with two very cynical fouls on Townsend in my opinion.

Davies run ragged by a witless journeyman league 1 winger.
Adebayor his usual indisciplined erratic lazy woeful self.
No tempo.
Not one chance from one play.
Terrible, as bad as we've been also season.

This should be on the front page of the site. Need far more ruthlessness, pace, and aggression.

The quality of the game was dictated by SU who put up a block (especially in the second half)...it's not like we don't already know we can't break teams down yet. lol
Sheffield were organised, disciplined and made a good account of themselves.
Will take that and look for an open game at theirs where we'll be able to play and we should be ok.
Must.Sell.Ade.

A poor performance next week and we won't come away with a win. You heard their support tonight you can only imagine what it will be like next week. One game standing between a 7th place a league 1 team and wembley they will be right up for it. Can't afford another performance like to night. But have to say I have more confidence in 451 next week than the 442 tonight.

if he prefers to collect deep and hold up, feed it wide and get in the box for a cross, why doesn't he try to do that once in a while?

I've watched most of our performances over the past few years and can say with confidence that that was far from our worst match. Yeah we didn't score four or five but this was against a team that was set up to nullify our slow build-up play / attacks. Sheff. Utd deserve more credit and I'd be less harsh on our boys. They were tough to break down.
I think it'll be a better game next week. They'll have to come out and play now which means there'll be more space for Eriksen and Kane to exploit. I'm not one for jumping on the slating bandwagon but Ade was extremely disappointing tonight - had a massive opportunity to change some opinions tonight and yet again looked halfway out the door.

Things start to be heating up a bit but I fear the worst, which would be to buy no one, which would mean that we would have actually weakened the squad.
