Sheff Utd - are they that bad?

2 points out of 45.

It’s a difficult one to fathom.

One club is likely to stay up with a record low points tally - it couldn’t happen in either of our seasons could it :roll:

No, I actually think they've had some pretty poor luck/decisions go against them and they don't get 'hammered' every week; far from it

They have a good manager, who is also a Blades supporter and I believe he is capable of getting them on a run that could catch the rubbish ahead of them

Looking at their squad and I see players who can 'do it' in the lower Premier League and it will only need them to click for a few games to get a run going; particularly against those closest to them

What an escape that would be eh? :shock: :ayatollah:

It's fine margins with Sheffield United.

Last season they were winning games by the odd goal, but this season they've been losing similar games by the odd goal.

Second season is always a little bit difficult as well, as teams have had time to find a way to play against your system - especially at that level.

But they should stick with their manager and I think they will. He's done a brilliant job.


Similarly you look at Brighton, who are low down in the league.

But I've seen them on TV a few times this season and play better than quite a few teams above them. Just can't score goals.

I think Wilder has done a great job overall but some of his ‘bigger’ players have struggled in their second season in premier.
And they definitely have suffered with some poor decisions.
I for one would like them to stay up particularly if it meant Fulham going down.

Shows just how good Dean Henderson was for them as well
