Why Did We Lose To Sheffield?

Post by Taansend »

Even during the game there was a massive difference of opinion over everything.

Masuaku was shit, Masuaku was great.

Ditto Anderson, etc etc.

Or Moyes waited too long to bring on three right subs.

But what do you think was the main reason(s) we lost the match?

Choose as many options as you want

VAR is a nonsense. It needs to be scrapped asap.

But it wasn't the reason we lost.

We lost because we conceded a Sunday-league goal and Sheffield upped their game with our midfield giving them a helping hand.

We lost because our midfield is far too slow.
Love a cup of Rosey I do.

This. Would have been 0-0 otherwise, which most would be quite happy with in the bigger picture.

I'm hoping the bug-eyed meths drinker sees that as well my learned friend.

Wee Charlie is still available to add much needed pace.

I concur m'lud.
The ability to spray passes over 5 yards is still there. And like you say the blur that is his speed will be a welcome asset.
