Too easy for us.

Exactly the type of opponent we needed to face after an indifferent last six weeks.

Have to feel for Sheffield United fans, what a waste of a season after a really good one last season. Should've come back into the prem full of optimism but they basically didn't bother to sign anyone until the last week of the window and the squad is very poor indeed.

Sheffield's wing backs are pub level. Aston Villa forwards are just breezing through them.

Fullbacks don't look that bad but are unbelievably passive and their body language makes me think they are on death row.

How did these guys get promoted? (I don’t watch the Championship ever…so no idea what the quality is like)

How can you be a manager of a team who has had one of the worst first half performances in recent history and decide to only make 1 sub at half time.

Sheffield United are basically Norwich city. They come up just to get the parachute payments.

This Sheffield United vs 2008 Derby County, who've you got?
Sheffield United are a point away from Derby’s season total. One goal from their goal total, and more wins. McBurnie has as many goals as as Derby’s top scorer Kenny Miller got in the league that season. If Sheffield United lose every game for the rest of the season they’ll still be about even statistically. Which as I type it doesn’t seem impossible, but they still have games against the likes of Burnley, Luton, United, Forest, Bournemouth, Brentford, Fulham where you could see them getting some sort of result

Defender is the outside of the penalty line. The attacker’s head is the inside of the line

If we go down, we go down kicking and screaming. So proud of this club I can't put it into words.
You're a great team to watch, mate.

Compared to Sheffield United stinking the league out and Kompany trying to play pretentious tiki taka with Burnley and getting completely found out, it's nice to see a team come up and play no-bullshit, direct, attacking football.

Bournemouth player putting hands on the ref to get her attention/make his point. Got to be an even bigger no no now.

That was a clear yellow and Kluivert should be off the pitch. He's a mouthy twat as well.

great finish by Hudson-Odoi, 1:1 Bou - Nottingham
There was a sort of admirable, pragmatic modesty to his celebration that, I believe, foreshadows even better things to come for Nottingham Forest. Now let us straighten our backs, take up our cudgel, and enjoy the fare.

Just watched halftime highlights in London game. Different week. Same thing. I have no idea what kind of side Pochettino and Boehly have built. Just one average club.

Mourinho coming back once more?

Wolves' two goals are utterly ridiculous. These jammy twats should buy lottery tickets on the way home.
The shots and deflections are lucky but everything that happens before the 2 goals is their own doing. Caicedo losing the ball, the defense letting Cunha all the time he needs to shoot, Enzo jogging back leaving Chilwell and Silva in a 2v3 before the cross...
I'd be surprised Poch finish the season. Can see a random caretaker coming in next month before finding a new guy to handle this mess of a squad.

This kid Kluivert is a horrible nasty prick and playing with fire. Needed to be sent off, wasn't and now Bournemouth haul him off before he costs them the game. Weak reffing

Pretty reckless to send Martinez back on, he clearly felt something bad the first time

Do Chelsea have a lot of injuries? the results have been poor for a very long time.. had a 2-3 game good run a couple of times.. but that's about it...
