I wasn't convinced that was a penalty. | |

Yes, I think so too. We were the better team in that first half, but United edged a poor second half. We had 15 shots to their 8, even if quite a few of them were from long range. | |

Match Thread on 17:00 - Aug 11 with 1431 views | vegasranger | I can't work out the tactics. We rarely seem to have options with the ball going forward and very few players breaking into the penalty area. All looked very easy for Sheff Utd second half. | | | |

cant agree mate,no such thing. We get what we deserve. it's about not conceding and scoring. it really is that simple. not how hard we play, how we string passes together. if we dont do either then we deserve what we get. | |

Match Thread on 17:02 - Aug 11 with 1376 views | Hayesender | Sorry, we didn't deserve anything out of that game after the 2nd half performance. Freeman, Scowen, and Luongo all went into hiding. We need them to step up or we are bang in trouble | |

Match Thread on 17:03 - Aug 11 with 1339 views | Hunterhoop | Absolute shithousery cheating from the Blades, which the ref was complicit in allowing. Completely lost control. Utd reffed the game second half. Soft as sh*t pen too. Eze and Leistner vs from our side. | | | |

Match Thread on 17:04 - Aug 11 with 1338 views | karl | I think it was a penalty tbh, little soft but definitely backed in under McGoldrick. Thought we lacked a focal point up front and I don't think Smith is the answer either, however we were in a deserved lead and lost all 3 points which is disappointing and did show a weakness which a few commented could happen when the team was announced, nice enterprising play but defensively suspect and we'll obviously come up against better opposition too. | | | |

Total rubbish penalty, we weren't that good, but didn't deserve to lose by that | | | |

I thought Scowen had a good second half, Freeman did ok but could have demanded the ball more, Luongo was very quiet all through the game but, as you say, particularly in the second half. | |

Fair points. Midfield also disappointing, I thought. | |

Match Thread on 17:13 - Aug 11 with 1173 views | EmpireStateRanger | Thought it was a crap penalty call. That said, those last 15-20 minutes were unbearable. No sense of urgency, nobody makin runs, passes from side to side. We’re in trouble. [Post edited 11 Aug 2018 17:54]

Yes midfield has to share blame for defensive weakness, was commented that removing Smyth, if tactical, would be a risk defensively. Can't say it had a direct impact but losing general defensive stability in one area does affect across the team. Think MacClaren has to be a bit more pragmatic at the start of this season and then try and bring some flair into things later, just don't think squad is strong enough for his normal approach, albeit its a style I would prefer to watch | | | |
