“There are better players in League One than Sheffield United have on display!
“This team wouldn't win League One: facts!”
Stan Collymore was even more damning, writing: “Worst team to ever play in 32 years of the Premier League.
“It's not a pleasure to say that, but if you can't do the basics, then this is the result.
“Part of this, and Burnley are the main culprit, is the notion that because the teams near the top can play high, dangerous and 'be brave', everyone can do it. You can't.
“If you have a modest budget, you take the qualities you can from the players (work rate, organization, character, etc.) to mask those that they don't have (technical ability). No matter how good the teams that have the personnel to “play”, the best league in the world should also have teams that find their own way to compete. It is possible.
“The players and coaches have to take responsibility at United because a League One or Two Cup team playing in Sheff United shirts would at least comply with the most basic. Because this is, by merit, a first class team “.
Sheffield United have won just three times in 27 games so far this season and have conceded over 70 goals in the process.
Incredibly, three Premier League teams have scored more goals than Sheffield United at Bramall Lane in 2024: Brighton, Aston Villa and now the Gunners have scored more than the Blades' four goals on their respective visits to South Yorkshire.
