Not just his injury record in question also a question over his attitude.
Rumours have that he's a cocky, arrogant & a bad influence.
I'm not too bothered that we didn't go for him.
He us not the reason that Sheff U have picked lately, that is down to Chris Wilder going back to the club. |

I agree with your comment about Romeu.
As much as I loved him & his commitment when he was with us previously he does now sadly look as if his legs have gone, he's never been quick but now he's painfully slow.
But he didn't cost us anything & I'm sure he's a positive influence at training & in the dressing room.
Or is he, because the team looks as if they have downed tools since he's been in the squad, hopefully that's just a coincidence.
I think part of the problem is that Tonda is younger than some of the squad & there's a lack of respect for him. |

We have conceded more goals than Oxford.
Until we solve the problem of conceding then we’re just an average Championship side. |

That was dire.
I've seen better Sunday morning games than that.
This bunch of players just don't care enough, other teams want it more than we do.
The opposition don't have better players but they are better organised & more committed.
Why do we persist with playing 3 ctr backs.
It leaves us so exposed on the flanks with Manning & Fellows playing as wingers.
Hate to say this but our substitutions made us worse again, Romeu looks a slow shadow of what he used to be, likewise Fraser & as for Archer he offers nothing. |

What about this one.
" Everytime I get my Xmas lights out to put up , I think of Scousers.
Because half of them don't work & those that do are dim".
Apologies to any Scousers on this forum. [Post edited 24 Dec 14:15]

You're right Grumps Leeds do have a battle to stay up but I think they might just survive.
Wolves & Burnley will go down & I'm hoping that West Ham do as well. |

Leeds & Sunderland promoted Last season.
Neither spent a fortune & both look like surving the first season in Premier lge.
Not sure if they'll survive next season.
Burnley will go straight back down this season.
It is such big challenge going from Championship to Premier lge but it can be done but I'm not sure we can achieve whilst owned by SR. |

I guess you must have been well drunk when you posted this Nick.
There's enough hatred on this forum without you making it worse.
Every one is entitled to enjoy Xmas not just drunken football fans.
HAPPY XMAS to everyone & NOT just heavy drinkers.
By the way I enjoy a drink all year round & not just at Xmas. |

I don't want to give away my identity but suffice to say I played at local / County level against Ted MacDougal + Brian O'Neil & Micky Judd.
Played in same side as John Sydenham.
Trained with Big Jake McGrath & Manny Andrewseski.
Unfortunately a serious leg break ended my football career. |

I agree Grumps, he's playing 3 ctr backs because none of them are good enough so he's relying on strength in numbers which doesn't work because no-one takes responsibility & they end up getting in each others way resulting in the messy goals conceded.
Get back to playing just 2 ctr backs & conventional full backs as defenders.
It too much to expect wing backs to do the job of full back & winger, they continually get caught out of position.
And what's all this nonsense of "inverted full backs" & " false nines" its just tactical rubbish.
It's a simple game so keep it simple. |

They trust him with the ball at his feet, but he's just not commanding enough in his area.
He's one of those keepers that makes relatively simple saves look spectacular but doesn't deal with the difficult stuff.
It's just my opinion, I have never rated Baz. |

We didn't deserve anything from todays game & we were very lucky to beat West Brom midweek.
What's worrying is that neither WBA or Norwich are very good, both are very average & we struggled against both of them.
Slack Jack was as bad as ever, Ryan Fraser is well past it.
We missed Tom Fellows big time.
And I still don't think Baz is strong enough or commanding enough, our defenders don't trust him that why they keep dropping deeper & virtually defending on our goal line. |

It's like watching walking Walking Football when Slack Jack play at the back.
He slows the game down to his walking pace & watch after he's played the ball he just plays statues, has he ever broken sweat in a game.
I can't understand or believe that so many of our Managers have trusted in him,
I'm convinced that he helps pick the team there's no other reason that he'd get a game.
If Tonda doesn't sort that defence out then we'll continue to leak goals & the rest of the side will lose heart. |

Tonda needs to sort this problem out.
We have to play for 90 mins +.
Teams are going to suss us out if we don't change.
We are just not very good defensively that's why we must keep on the offensive.
We look good when going forward, but we look really dodgy at the back.
I'm not sure what happens at half time, does Tonda tell them to save their energy & just manage the game out because if we continue to do that our bubble will definitely burst. |

Just can't understand how or why it's taken until he's 26 years old to get recognised as a great footballer.
He is unique & virtually unplayable, he changes the whole dimension of the team.
It's not just his ability that is pustanding it's his character & attitude.
BUT how long can we keep him ?.
If you've got time find his 10 minute interview on Saints Website, it's absorbing, the guy is just brilliant. |

Think positive.
What happens if we win both those games, I'm sure we will then start to believe in Tonda.
Let's not write him off, he can only work with what he's got but I personally have good vibes about him, you get lucky managers & I think he's one of them. |

It was never in doubt really.
It's SR's way.
Now we must give him a chance but it won't be easy for him. [Post edited 5 Dec 21:35]
