I see Alison not in the rs side...possibly because of his father's death?
Broomhandle sub for Sheff U.

What a game it had loads of

Whatever broadcaster gets the Man United vs. Chelsea games next season should give it an honest tagline in line with previous results, like:

"It'll probably be a 0-0 bore draw, but watch in case it isn't"

 

[blueconverse]

What a pathetic game of footy. Just void that game in future give each team a point. Neither manager interested in winning

Come on Sheff

From the BBC website:

Speaking to BBC Radio Leicester, he added: "It's not good news. He needs an operation. He'll be out for a minimum of six weeks. Part of the bone in his knee has come off, so he'll need it repaired.

No sh%& Sherlock.

I reckon Leicester will struggle without Barnes, really makes them tick in midfield, quick transitions. At a guess I'd say his injury could cost them top4

C'mon Blades, don't ruin it for everyone. These are easy!

Sad news about Glenn Roeder that.

Seemed a decent geezer.

Beg to differ. On the replays, as Lineker pointed out, you can clearly hear the first whistle BEFORE the Brighton player took the free kick. After that, the ref should only blow his whistle if he sees an offence committed. And he didn't, because the free kick was re-played.

Lee Mason is a joke and should never be allowed on a football pitch again.

Completely disagree(Not on Lee Mason being a joke, everything that happened after that point was a disaster).

The player hit the ball before you could hear the whistle and that was clear. Regardless, the player hit the ball before ANY defender heard and could react to the whistle. The literal point of a whistle is an alert to all players that play is now able to resume. Having it technically be 0.00001 seconds after he blew the whistle is a palpably unfair act and you would be livid if it ever happened to Everton. The player was already in his run up and "taking the free kick" before the whistle was blown and was going to hit it regardless of the coincidence. He did not and was not waiting for the whistle.

The very point of rules and laws is not so that we can all just read a rulebook together and talk about rules and laws because thats soooo much fun. The point is to create a fair and safe game and a level playing field. Anything that falls foul of that should be treated as such and cheered when it is.

No chance that Liverpool don’t win this one. Sheffield United are atrocious.

Chelsea’s results against the Big Six this season
0-2, 0-0, 0-0, 1-3, 1-3, 1-0, 0-0.

United’s results against the Big Six this season 1-6, 0-0, 0-1, 0-0, 0-0, 0-0, 0-0.

I hate the term aswell but we all know who they are. By my reckoning we've taken 14 points in 8 games so far against those teams. Must be our best return for a long time. In fact it doesn't feel like we've ever taken 14 points against those teams over the full 12 games in any season I can remember since the eighties.

3 of those losses were versus Man City, Leicester and us to be fair... not exactly the easiest games. They will defo score and if they’re having trouble, Salah or Mane will dive for a penalty. Sheffield United won’t take advantage of the terrible CBs because they’ll hardly have the ball and can’t score.
