In all my years of watching football, I've never seen 45 minutes of  such one-sided play in favour of the away team. The Blades have actually got away with it; it should be 10.

At one stage, Arsenal were actually playing one touch football. No wonder people were streaming out of the ground after 30 minutes.

They were leaving after 15minutes

No, hate cashing out. Just let it run. Luckily Arsenal took the foot of the gas. They really could have put 10 past them.

Lovely stuff. Well in. Now chuck your winnings on the same outcome for Rovers later.

Cheers. It was only by chance too that I put a bet on. I looked at the first goal scorer market and couldn’t find any value. At the last min I checked the correct score market and thought those prices were high. Easy to say with hindsight but blades had conceded 5 at home previous 3 games,  and Arsenal had banged in 5 at Burnley and 6 at West Ham.

I did try and get £10 on but only half was matched on Betfair.

Not complaining though.

It was like watching England playing San Marino

Why are Sheff U so bad though?

They seem to have got what it takes to escape from the Championship, but they don’t seem to posses the basic skill set to compare at any level with the rest of the PL teams. Luton, Burnley and Forest can look good at times, but it’s like watching a non league side in a Cup tie for a lot of the time at Bramall Lane.

They are awful, but yet have same points as Burnley who were a better side when promoted and recruited expensively. They arent getting royally  pumped every game a la blades , but just show how good a season Luton are having in comparison

Sheffield United do have the basis of a very good young side and a manager who I think will be willing to throw them in the deep end.
  Jili Buyabu, Rhian Brewster, Andre Brooks, Femi Seriki,  Sydie Peck, Antoine Hackford, Louie Marsh, and Ollie Arblaster could all be part of a renaissance that are under their noses given a chance, and some very good players following up in the younger academy age groups.
  Its having the guts to go along with it, they couldn't do any worse at the moment, and nothing that has not worked for other clubs in the past.

Yes please!!!

Saw him getting kicked to buggery by his ex team mates at River Plate when Blades played them in the friendly at Bramall Lane that was part of the transfer deal. River Plate won at a canter too- even though Blades weren't a bad side.
