    He's went from a team that spent most of the time under pressure, playing a central role constantly without worrying about covering anyone, like fullbacks etc

    He was always going to take time to learn gerrards system, and his best games have been when he's been more central

    That is spot on, Davis and Lundstram can't play together.

    I really liked his game today, he thrived in the middle of the park in a though match.

     

  2. Sheffield fans have short memories.

    Lundstram had a very decent 2019-20 season with Fleck and Norwood in a midfield 3 and Sheffield's 532. He had some impact going forward, assisted 3 times and scored 5, not the best record but decent in my opinion. It was always pleasant to see this team play, they almost reached Europa League qualification, then they collapsed at the end of the season.

    Next summer is going to be extremely interesting.

    Davis, McGregor, Arfield, Balogun, Goldson, Firth, McLaughlin, Barker and Defoe's contracts all end.

    Personally I would only keep Goldson, Balogun and McLaughlin from that list. 

    Whilst the likes of Morelos, Helander, Aribo, Kamara, Jack, McCrorie, Kent and Kelly will all have one year left if they don't sign a new deal before then.

    Not an ideal position to be in at all tbh.

    We absolutely need to begin talks with these players to extend their contracts before it's too late, situation can become very uncomfortable, very fast.

  4. I wish we could do better against good teams like Lyon but I'm also relieved we don't have to play at Champions League level.

    We are not ready to compete against top teams in Europe in my opinion. Yes we are short and shaked with covid, injuries/knocks etc, but against other oppositions we'd have struggle even more.

    On the other hand, I felt the crowd was disappointed we couldn't make it against Malmö to reach CL, after our title we were in a very good mood. I left Ibrox a bit sad, underwhelmed, with the feeling we could've done better with more willingness and luck.

  5. Disappointed if he can't build on his last good performances. I hope it's nothing bad and we'll see him next to Goldson on saturday.

    This start of the season is very frustrating with international break and Malmö games. Not to mention virus, fitness and injuries.

    So we are probably looking at:

    McGregor

    Patterson Goldson Balogun Bassey

    Lundstram Davis Kamara

    Kent Morelos Aribo/Wright

    Thats assuming Helander and Roofe are out.

    He might play Aribo in midfield (:panic:imo) in place of Lundstram but otherwise that should be enough to beat a team who have just lost their captain and their best player.

    Take a 1-0 win right now to be honest.

    I think it will be almost that team selection.
    Tavernier over Patterson maybe, depends on fitness I guess.

    People have said that taking a look at celtic against AZ we have nothing to fear from them. Flipping that around what must they think looking at us and our start to the season? We are a shadow of last years side currently - the only bonus is Utd aside we've still been winning matches despite playing appalling football. I don't think celtic have suddenly become a great side and I believe our squad is still better, but the reality is they are playing well, with confidence and scoring a lot of goals. We need to improve or we will struggle on Sunday. We need players to start performing at a much higher level than they have been.  If we start with intensity I have no doubt we can punish them, especially as their defence remains a weak point. But if we start poorly they have players that can cause us problems. 

    I agree.
    Only spark was the opening game against Livi imo, we played fast and fluid Football, otherwise it's very concerning. Old Firm is a make or break game for me, get your shit together and win it lads. 🇬🇧

    But if the money we are alleged to be giving him we need more than a squad player ffs.

    I agree with you, for that kind of wages he should bring more and better than what we are seeing right now. But like I said, I really think he is not fit at all looking at his shape on the field.
