top4718   838 #37 Posted December 16, 2017 The next transfer window is probably the biggest for united in a decade, the word has always been (very much in evidence on here) that the chairmen would spend “when the time is right” you have a very good manager who’s performing miracles on a budget, unfortunately in the unforgiving Championship (and this is not a vintage season) that will only take you so far, over to you Mr McCabe and Prince Charming - the time is now!!!

lien1   10 #38 Posted December 16, 2017 Just got back ,from Preston , got to say worst game of football I have seen so far this season United was awful lack of commitment just did not turn up to say Preston was not that much better ,I know there’s a long way to go but united have got serious problems wilders running out of ideas just got to hope the board back him and We can get a few new players in January because I honestly can’t see united winning again with those type performance, shocking lack of ideas ,teams at bottom of league are in better form than us just got to hope we can come round From this bad day Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Ridgewalk   101 #39 Posted December 16, 2017 United's bubble has now well and truly burst, ours has a 2 season slow puncture :hihi:   Yet we’re still top six. Sounds like today has been the only bad performance this season, and there are reasons for that, team decimated, but you’ll not agree with that.  Carlos Carcrashio seems to be your problem Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
atticus   97 #40 Posted December 16, 2017 I didn't go today but we were poor by all accounts.A bit surprising really because even though we haven't been getting the results of late we've been playing well. Wilder said after the game that he would be embarrassed to blame injuries for the result; he's right ;its a squad game and the squad needs shaking up in January.

Wilder said after the game that he would be embarrassed to blame injuries for the result; he's right ;its a squad game and the squad needs shaking up in January.  The only surprise is that people are surprised,as though we were going to go on in the top 2 or 3.Never was going to happen,reality is we can play a lot better than what we are,and also we are missing key players,so there's no need to panic. While we were away in the pub league,loads of teams in this division were going on good and bad runs like this,still are,it's what happens here,it's normal,just that we have got used to not losing lately,but,short of pulling the blankets up and staying in bed,we are just going to have to go through it and come out the other side,like most other teams do.  ---------- Post added 16-12-2017 at 20:15 ----------  So why mention injuries?  I just said,Wilder listens to,and reads stuff from fans,he's replying to them.He's not putting it down to injuries,that is his message to us.

Guest   #47 Posted December 16, 2017 (edited) Chill mi owd . Football is like stormy waters , all ups & downs in a roller coaster of waves try having Carlos in ya ranks  Top post owl.66 and never has a truer word been spoken.  If I'm honest (and most Blades would be), we're a little surprised to have been in the position we were a month or so ago. I'm just glad we have the points in the bank and with a bit of luck, we shouldn't have to worry as long as the tide turns back in our favour when a few key players return to duty.  I'd rather be looking backwards from a stronger position than upwards when things aren't going as you'd hoped and there doesn't seem to be a solution on the horizon.
