    Would like to see us win but would be even better to see if we can actually have one match this season with more than 50% possession.

    Its all very well being lightening quick on the break and getting goals against the run of play but if you can’t hold on to the ball afterwards it makes it very difficult to see games out.

    Its been a major failing this season.

    I’m positive about this game. No pressure on either side but we have the better players.

    Wilson hat trick.

    Its just we dont have the right ones. Its probably why we play Shelvey every week as he is the only one who could potentially control a game. Trouble is he is not mobile enough. We need a Carrick or a Matic or a Fabinho.

    Bruce on defeat at #SUFC away: "It was one of the dark moments of the season & I certainly picked the wrong team, so I have to take responsibility for it. We didn't play well enough. If we don't show them huge respect, it'll be difficult for us as they're a decent side.

    Ok Steve things to consider....
    • They are not a decent side.
    • We showed them to much respect the last time. That’s why we lost.
    • Your right, YOU picked the wrong team.
    • Your right YOU should have took responsibility but you blamed the players.
    Easy win predicted 3-0. Bruce to get it spot on.

    You know Bruce could do himself a favour tomorrow and pick an attack minded lineup.

    The having a go attitude will reduce the possibility of crowd issues. Which I don’t think there will be much anyways.

    No point getting injuries I'd play a few youth players personally.. Anderson for example

    Apparently he’s injured aswell. Or at least he has been and only just returning to training?

    I agree. Can’t be any worse than Shelvey anyways.

    Bruce's brilliant season has seen us back to 17th after Brighton beat Citeh. Ashley will definitly see this as success.

    It wouldn't surprise me to see us picking only 1 point from those 2 games. Bruce will play 5-3-2 against Sheffield and hope to catch them on the break.(Muppet) Fulham nothing to play for but pride and will want to give their fans encouragement for next season.

    I assume you're talking about his massive spliff and not his 'wonderful' footballing talents?!
    I have a bad feeling about this game.
