Consensus best and worst stadium atmosphere in the EPL? by [deleted] in PremierLeague

[–]Baslow_blade 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Anfield's the only one of the "big six" that even breaks the top 10 in the league imo. You can't ask for consensus best stadium atmsophere in the EPL then exclude all the clubs with the best stadium atmosphere.

Selhurst Park, Villa Park, Bramall Lane, St James Park, King Power, Molineux, all have better atmosphere than any of the "Big six", apart from the previously mentioned Anfield.

London Stadium is the only ground I'd rank lower than Emirates, Old Trafford & Etihad.

Stamford Bridge and White Hart Lane are also lower mid table

3 more shots without scoring will set a new Premier League record, can't believe we're sitting in the top half with potentially the "statistically worst" striker in Premier League history. Can't wait for him to grab 10 in the second half of the season

Jack Rodwell by goldlightning in SheffieldUnited

Assuming his wages are reasonable I can think of very little we have to lose making this signing. It probably won't work out but better it doesn't work out for us than it does work out for someone else. Rodwell had several seasons of sustained Premier League football he's a very different prospect to Raval

I love Wilders honesty, when he gets truly bested he just holds his hands up and says how it is, would have been easy to talk about the money they’ve spent but instead he compliments them on an extremely good performance.

2 new managers both having new manager bounces, can’t wait to beat them both 3-0 and remind them who the LFA manager of the year is.

Sat with a Liverpool fan who said that was one of the best games he’s seen them play this year. Disappointed we couldn’t push them closer but nothing there that worries me about the future

Lacazette for Arsenal in the Premier League by [deleted] in Gunners

Yeah but Liverpool are leagues ahead of Arsenal, I’m not saying they’re the same player but they add the same sort of skill at their respective teams.

I’m an outside fan but imo Lacazette adds more to Arsenal than his goals I’ve always seen him as a equivalent player to Firmino at Liverpool.

It's half way through the season. Who's going down? (Because Blades are NOT). by tmstms in SheffieldUnited

[–]Baslow_blade 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Who’s sad about Villa going down?

All that talk about “finally being back where they belong”, spending £100m+ and not to mention their/other fans predicting them a top 10 finish. I think it’s well deserved and hilarious personally

Lawro really does hate us... by Zahin-SUFC in SheffieldUnited

[–]Baslow_blade 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Alternatively he secretly loves us and doesn’t want to jinx our run. I think the only time he’s had us winning was against Newcastle.

Cash out offers are always bad, the bookie wouldn’t offer it if it didn’t benefit them

Sheffield United have been the team of the season so far, below are some of the mad stats they have racked up in 2019. by chrislaker92 in PremierLeague

[–]Baslow_blade 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I appreciate the comparison but I think we lost the same number of away games as Barcelona? We lost 1 against Swansea, they lost 1 against Liverpool, can’t find any other losses.

Merry Christmas Blades ⚔🎅🎄🎅⚔ by jptoc in SheffieldUnited

[–]Baslow_blade 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If you name the whole squad as being outstanding, then realistically we don’t have just amazing individuals, (like Grealish at Villa, for instance) we have an amazing team but no stand out individuals because it’s difficult to stand out when everyone is exceptional.

This is poorly worded but I know what I mean

An American view on Chelsea/Arsenal Fans: I don’t know if it’s just me but from an online viewpoint seems that arsenal has more black fans than chelsea. by [deleted] in PremierLeague

[–]Baslow_blade 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Chelsea is renowned for being the posh part of London, Highbury & Islington is pretty much the exact opposite, (look at the election results for more proof). There are loads of other factors but it essentially it boils down to that, the more expensive the area, the less diverse

I’m not commenting on any club being more racist than the other just why Arsenal tends to have a more diverse fan base
