I don't know either. Why bring him here and try and make him something he's not?
I know, it's wasting his career. But maybe purchased against Farke's wishes?

Beat in mind that Daniel does like to make a point.

It would be nice, though, if he made a point by actually making points. A goal counts for one point, doesn't it?

Good run from Bogle just in case the keeper fluffed his lines ..

Beautiful cross from Firpo but Aaronson can't keep his volley down.

HT 0-0

Best chances from Aaronson, Bogle man of the half for me from Ramazani

0-0 HT

Exactly :tup:

Nice idea by Aaronson but just too high for Piroe.

Then Aaronson finished like Bamford

Have to go to work, alas.

I'll watch the second half later on the replay.

Let's make sure I'll want to watch the replay.

The Blades will slow the game down in the second half and frustrate. They weren't expecting Leeds to be as good as they are...

We were the better team but they didn't allow us any clear cut chances

I disagreed at the time you posted it. But he had some really good moments after that.

A good patient approach for this half, I’m very pleased with our attitude. More of the same and our chance will come, so long as we don’t get panicky.
Bogle vs Shackleton? I think we’ve come out the better
Rothwell bossing the middle.

Difference is that Bogle is a clear first choice. Shackleton is a squad player. And hindsight says that he'd have been a really useful squad player to have right now.

On a side note, we gave Shackleton a good welcome. Their fans are booing Bogle. Pretty clear which club is the better to play for.

Shack is technically a DMF/CMF, a much better Crew atm ... We always played him out of position

Yes, Rothwell is looking like the midfielder we hoped he was, and Bogle has a point to prove, both up for it.

Based on this game, I’d be fretting if we had to bring him on. I’ve always liked shacks, but I’m not sure he’s enjoying today. Firpo has him in his pocket.

Fairly even game.

Less positive than vs Sunderland with our passing, DF definitely had a word far too much bravery then.

Some players had nice moments, Ramazani shot, Piroe layoff, Rodon winning a few vs Moore, Tanaka mopping up, Rothwell running with the ball occasionally.

Neither team really showing great quality.

Like to see us go long more, Sheffield United are really high and Piroe (contrary to belief) has pointed numerous times for a ball In behind that never comes.

Farke needs to take the handbrake off

Also we need to just give the ball back at set pieces, save time.

Looking more like the Rodon we know and love. Agree with the Piroe comment.
