“We are Allergic to the top 6”
“We pretty much controlled the second half and then realised a win had us in the to six, the club as a whole can’t cope with that”
“The battle for 11th place goes on.”
“Gone from 15mins away from a brilliant win and into top 6, silly give away for a draw and heartbreak at the end. Football is cruel.
Not even as if we were terrible and they had a lot of chances. Gutted. Guess that’s why these teams find a way!”
“That went from being the biggest win for a long time to absolute disappointment. Take the positives from it, stopped a team that should have what it takes to go back up comfortably for most of the game.”
“Injuries have done us for sure but to take on a parachute team like that just shows how far we have progressed. They have some terrific players for Championship standard.”
“Very harsh result on City but they’re a good side.”
“Don’t be too disheartened, Sheffield U are a Prem parachute team with some very good players.
Just a couple of stupid errors messed up our night and overall we probably matched them.”
“They were getting on top before the equaliser but what the **** was max doing on the previous corner before the goal ? Dickie & roberts ******* about at the back . We’ve gifted them those points . Unbelievable .”
“Completely gutted with result…worked so hard only to hand them 3 points on a plate which was a real kick in the teeth. As soon as we went to a back 5 the game completely changed, we went from dominating and looking comfortable to a disorganised shambles”
“That’s the difference between us and a top 6 team, they played bad and did what it took to win. They were crucial when they needed to be and our teams mentality was ******* awful as soon as we went ahead, panicking, stupid mistakes. We won’t be top 6 unless we have someone who can teach the players how to handle pressure.”
“Despite taking the lead we never looked like winning that game. They had Premier League experience all over and we didn’t match them. We have an inexperienced squad with little quality. We’re destined for mid table mediocrity”
“We didn’t really look like scoring and then Pen.”
“it’s not just about how you play it’s mentality , they were no better than us until the final 10 when there mentality was to go for it and be strong where we went into our shell – we have such a soft underbelly and have had for years”
“That’s why Sheff Utd are where they are I guess. We made it so easy for them in the end though.”
“Played well for long periods tonight. We tired at the end. Their bench had all the quality a Prem season buys you”
“Both Leeds and Sheff Utd have played poorly against us, and LM has to get some credit for that.”
“They weren’t even that good, thrown it away ourselves.”
” I watched the game in Sheffield, surrounded by Sheffield United fans. They said they played complete crap and I tend to agree. They had zero shots on target until 85 mins, rested their best players for their derby on Sunday. They really, really didn’t look that good. We should have beaten them once we went 1-0 up. Extremely frustrating.”
“Utd didn’t have to do anything to turn that around.”
“Losing today against a poor Sheff United having gone 1-up just kills all the momentum we’ve been building and with injuries stacking up and tough games ahead.. hard to see how we don’t regress now into peak City mediocrity. What a shame”
“Time was up already and the ref didn’t blow”
“Typical this has happened before a while back with sheff utd.”
“Sheff utd beat us at the gate so many times.”
“Congratulations to Rob Earnshaw for the new World Record of most words verbally communicated in a 90 minute period whilst simultaneously saying absolutely nothing.”
