Fixed it. We were never winning this regardless of availability. Zero shots on target and keep playing long ball when we have lost literally every header in any part of the pitch. We have a stronger squad than last season though, honest.

And as I say it, another one. This is going exactly as I predicted when the fixtures came out. Utter garbage.

Have we won a single header in any area of the pitch yet?

Amazing tactical decision to keep using long throws against a team twice our size.

Miller is abysmal, every pass has been miles away from its intended target and gives a free counter attack.

He's been better than the actual CB's for me.

Game over. Absolutely shocking squad who got lucky against some out of form teams.

Honestly our squad collectively have the worst first touches in the entire football league.

All the good that could have come out of the momentum of the last few games is about to be undone by the obvious lack of squad depth and CN issues that literally everyone apart from those at Ewood saw.

Do you normally get cramp in the knee?

For once, glad to be proved wrong. Still don't think it's a "turning point" though, I've never seen a team more open to the counter attack in my entire life, and the goals both required incredible chunks of luck. I'm really, really hopeful I am proved wrong again.

No point watching the rest, zero fight in this squad.

It is, but yet we are significantly below even the worst this league has to offer. It's certainly not a lack of luck on our end, we're just nowhere near the standard required. Everyone bar maybe two or three posters on here saw it coming a mile off.

Just wait 'til we're getting pasted by Accy!

It doesn't really what happens. If one of the sporting director, manager, owners and squad are bad you can change and survive, two becomes harder, three nigh on impossible. We have ALL FOUR. This isn't ending in League One, and I don't see how we ever come back from this ownership.

Because we're an abysmal team.

Put your house on both of them being instrumental to a Blades win.

This a 100% must win. Even a draw won't be good enough but I'll be honest I just don't see it. Even if for arguments sake we say we play well, we a)don't have the quality up front to get clear and b)show time and again that we completely lose all composure at key moments game after game. Rovers 0-1 Sheff Utd

The number of losses for me is the more damning statistic.

Unsurprisingly, another good "spell" that means absolutely nothing because we have stripped our squad to the bone as far as decent players are concerned. I will say one thing - Ohashi scored a few last season, because we supplemented his weaknesses with Championship experience. Now we are seeing why that was so important. Real life isn't Football Manager.

Hate going to 3-5-2, it's not worked for multiple managers over the past few years. I understand the reasoning, but all I see is us playing at the edge of our own area and getting battered. Sod's law on the other hand says we'll nick a win here.

We'll either win 1-0 or get hammered 6-0. It will take a miracle to come out of this without being embarrassed though.

And hopefully that't the last we'll see of Pears. Glad he's locking down his position.

I know it's a friendly but can't argue with this so far against a Wales side who have generally been quite good under Bellamy. Good to see that we want to keep pushing forwards even at 3-0 - one of my biggest criticisms of Southgate was his inability to capitalise on momentum.

The two chances I'd say should have been 100% buried in the last 2 games didn't even result in a shot, and ended up with the ball in our own net in one case. Poor chance creation and even poorer finishers is a worrying combination.
