Match Thread Sheffield United v Everton - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Zezti]

This formation is wild.

Ive no idea where anybody is playing apart from the back 4 and Dom up top.

Is it a 4-3-3, with Sigurdsson slightly higher of the midfield 3?

 

[EvertonCJ]

We’re playing much better this half. It’s amazing what the confidence of a goal can do.

 

[ForeverBlue92]

Imagine if we had a top CF instead of Bambi.

Just imagine

Come on Brands get us a striker in who actually terrifies the opposition - massively more vital than a kin CB.

 

[JohnRoss23]

Davies is so unathletic and slow. It’s an embarrassment that he starts for this club.

 

[itsnowak]

Only been able to watch the second half and davies is just poo

 

[maccavennie]

Sidibe should be doing much better there once he's gone past his man.

 

[Frenk]

Bloody hell Davies is annoying, he gets the harder stuff right and fails at the simple.

 

[Mildredblues]

It's working though.

More flexibility perhaps? They also seem to be playing more directly in the 2nd half and have ditched the pointless extra passing.

 

[TheBigIguana]

It’s a bit of both clearly but I can think of at least 4/5 chance this season where Calvert Lewin has been played through or been given a decent ball in front of goal and he’s flapped it. The lad ain’t good enough. He wouldn’t get in any other top 7/8 team. He’s tripe.

It doesn't matter we have to create more. He could be missing 19 or 20 big chances if we did.

 

[Obes]

How are these in with a shout for Europe.

When you look at their strikers, you’d think they were gearing up for promotion out of League One rather than a push for Europe.

 

[Zezti]

Because when he has a pop people moan he should have passed.

Nobody there to moan at him.

 

[orly]

That 'burst' forward. Lol

Funniest Davies thing I have seen in ages. Ahhhh he is so inept

 

[TyphooToffee]

Not much doubt about which team plays the best football here. It's about time we showed it.

 

[TheBigIguana]

The thing is, richarlison doesn't miss them. Lukaku didn't miss them.

Can't use it as an excuse because before you know it lewen is 29 , still missing but the odd good goal he scores is overwritten.

Same as what happened with siggurdson , 2 years ago noone would accept he was a bang average player....

Arsenal are where they are because their striker doesn't miss. They are average as well , so what's your point? They beat us because they have a striker who scores in front of goal.



Well goals win games and we don't win too many with him up front when we do create for him......

The last time we were good creatively was before the lockdown.

You're being very generous there. He gets both easy and hard stuff wrong most of the time.
