Match Day Thread Sheffield Wednesday FC v Sunderland AFC – Friday 28th February 2025 - KO 20:00

The rules state that you can not score if you've gained advantage from a ball touching the arm or hand.

 

I agree with you but I’m confused by what that position does in possession full stop. Rigg has struggled to impact games in that role and now so is Browne. Reggie needs to find the right profile of player to impact from there and for me it has to be Aleksic or Mayenda

 

surely not that would be mental.

 

Yeah the position is killing him. However he’s also a pretty average champ midfielder in truth. Nowt we were really missing.

 

Aleksic for Browne, surely?

 

already seen it on some replies to the posts tonight

 

Think some changes are needed, subs and/or tactical changes. Get Isidor and Aleksic on for Browne and Roberts.

 

Browne was a good signing if Jobe and Rigg hadn’t developed as rapidly as they have. He’d have been an obvious starter for us last season but this season he just feels like a back up

 

In defence of the wingers I think they’re rarely supported from the full backs. Often have 2 v 1 situations in the oppositions favours.

 

I know but it is depth and rest options for Neil and Jobe. That's it.

I have no idea why RLB is expecting defensive CM to play as second strikers. Samed now Browne.

Can we not just play attacking players there ?

 

They’ve already started in the darker corners of the internet.

 

I’m glad to say I’ve been off twitter and facebook a month now and I’m so much more relaxed about Sunderland than I’ve ever been.

 

It's that right there that does my head in with Roberts. Great skill to beat a few players then the final ball is horrific. I want effective wingers not 'good to watch' wingers.

 

So good to hear red and white army above the home crowd.

Haway lads, foot down now

 

Roberts has once again done okay with very little support in my view.

 

Would delete my FB but have f&f on there so barely post.
But there is a ugly side to fandom

 

I’m definitely starting to look past the fact he has a touch like Messi.

Wilson needs support with the goals output. Nobody else is stepping up.

 

This game has a mid table vibe about it

 

Think it’s time for aleksic to start being given a chance. Been here a few months now and looks to have some real skill and pace. A lot of free hits coming up and might stumble on to something that makes a difference with him.

 

Mayenda has scored tonight tbf
