Matchday Thread: Blades vs Rams

[SithHappens]

What chance to keep the mini run going?

They are on poor form too but one has to think they won't finish anywhere near the bottom 3.

I'm going for a 1-1 drawing which would be a decent result.

Hoping for a win, we were half decent last weekend and I'm especially confident in our defence (personnel and formation)

2-0 Rams

Only a wish, and related to MA's post below, wouldn't it be great to 'go on a run'

1-1 would be fine, but I fancy a narrow nerve wracking second away win.

[Geoff Parkstone]

Form suggests perhaps a draw as neither of us are in great shape despite our two win streak. Which is the real DCFC - the one against Pxfor or the one against QPR? brewster to score on return - but hes probably injured again

Oxford was a poor Rams performance in both halves. Norwich 1st half equally as bad. At HT we switched from a back 4 to a 3 and brought Langas on. Great improvement. Langas on from the start against QPR and we played 2 decent halves.

Looking at form, both sides have 9 points form their last 3 games. We have 2 wins, 3 draws and a defeat. They have 3 wins and 3 defeats. Lost to Soton with whom we drew and beat Oxford 1-0 to whom we lost 1-0 in that dreadful performance.

For me, the ideal game would be they take a 1-0 lead, we win 1-2, take the 3 points, move up the table and lose that monkey off JE's back where he's not won a game at either Blackburn or us after falling behind.

What do I think will happen? 0-1 to us.

The big question is, after Bobby Clark's performance against QPR, will Adams get his place back? If we keep the same side apart from Ebou replacing Adams in the "two", I would find that harsh on Clark.

After a disastrous start Wilder has been brought back in for his 3rd stint at the Blades to sort things out and he will.
With us both showing signs of improving after dodgy starts a low scoring draw seems probable and I go along with 1-1.
As an aside I can see there being, shall we say, something of a clash of personalities between JE and CW!! Could be lively on the touchline!

I'd love 3 on the trot, though we will miss Max and it'll be telling. I'll go for a nervy 1-0 win.

[swaledale]

Again difficult to judge, going for 1-1, seems most likely outcome.

[SithHappens]

Brilliant win. Morris superb.

Been at Everton’s new ground today for the RL International. Looks like a huge spaceship that has landed amongst the 18th century docks. Fine new stadium which attracted 56k today, but the best part of the day was being told that Derby were 0-3 up.
Hoped for a win, expected a draw, a 3-1 away win surpassed expectation. Excellent and very encouraging result.
