Man of the Match by a million million miles today, not a foot put wrong all day, won every single header, scored a towering header from the corner and celebrated with us as if we'd won the cup. One of us... sign him on!
Well done the lad.
Shame Pards persisted with fortune for the last few games when the Sodj was fit... how many points was that thrown away?

there's nothing like the feeling a player is one of "yours" the way you get with Holland, McCarthy and Sodje to name a few
to be honest zizi has had a shocker for a while now (scunthorpe, shef W, blackpool the worst and then today)
i think i'd give the boy a little break asap, he just can't pass water at the moment and it's a shame as he's got so much there
Was it comfortable and we always looked a class above, or a gritty solid away performance, doing what we had to do ?
Too many
I would say leaning towards the gritty solid away performance until our second. Our class above then showed.
When I think back to some of the donkeys we have had over the years, I think we have four centre backs that are pretty good.
how would you know ? you weren't there!
now if you sorted thatt driving license out you inconsiderate git
afka - i'd say it was a gritty, steely performance all through, we didn't have to do a lot in all honesty but what we did we did well
In response to rothko, sodje might not have made much of an influence on halford's individual error last week but if the back four get any of the turbulence that i feel seeing fortune out there and not a commanding and dominating centre half i can understand them going AWOL.
boy can sodje jump. and boy can halford throw a ball. Jesus H.
Sinclair sounded like he had a quiet debut....any comments from you guys who went?
C-O-N-T-R-A-C-T... N-O-W
Very quiet, had horrendously coloured boots on, and offered very little but only had a few minutes so no real comments other than he was a bit left out of the run of play
:-)
they weren't orange
they weren't yellow
they weren't red
they weren't pretty
what happened to black and white eh?! especially for a young'un!
What pleases me is that Pards did change things around and it worked. I am confident that we have a strong squad for this Division, we just have to hope that Pards can get the team selection/tactics right now for the run in. What is clear to me is that today was a big bounce back and that's really good. We've been here before with an away win and then looking at two home games to really kick things on and we've faltered. I have a feeling that Pards/the team may have learned from those blips.
Sheffield ain't that bad given that I lived in Worksop for years. Worksop makes 1980's Trashford (I have lived there as well) look like a decent place. However I wouldn't recommend living on the manor, parson cross or pitsmoor estates.
Scott Sinclair looked a little "lightweight" during his short spell on the pitch. He gave the ball away horrendously in the right back position & could so easily have gifted Sheffield an equaliser. Not sure he has a lot of strength, but obviously has pace. Let's wait & see before delivering any verdict. MOTM has to be Sodje. Good to see his reaction to his goal & at the final whistle. He actually came over the hoardings to give the fans a hug at the end.
Decent turnout as well. Good day, but you have to say that Sheffield Utd were very, very poor. Let's see if we can repeat that performance against Bristol City on Tuesday.
Maybe with ZZ we are seeing the impact now of the run of games and flights he put in a month ago ?
I wasn't there so can't comment. not sure that sodje would have helped at blackpool. there were 11 players not doing their bit up there, can't single out 1 or 2 for individual mistakes, when we'd have needed to substitute the whole team to get a result. even if he'd have been on his game, everyone else would still have been shocking.
maybe they just wanted to shift a few copies of the international edition in China..
