    I’m going to say what we’re all thinking.

    Eddie Nketiah is the best English striker with a five letter first name with double letters in the middle.

    Eddie hattrick. Tomi’s first goal. Vieira being Vieira. Smith Rowe AND Elneny assists. Kiwior being a rock at the back. Millimetres off the perfect game!

    Only a Havertz goal away from true perfection :(

      To be fair to Havertz, he was out there battling today. More spirited performance from him than any I’ve seen so far. Hopefully a sign of things to come!

        Good to finally see he can put in a solid shift against a spirited team. If he keeps this up he might even contribute a goal or an assist this season!

    Honestly think Sheffield could break the record for the fewest premier league points of all time.

    Genuinely not seen a Sheffield United team as bad as this since the League One days.

    Great time to be a Derby fan.

    Sheffield United are straight up terrible, they weren’t good to begin with but the defensive injuries have crippled them.

    Considering our first choice LCB, RCM and ST were out, this was a fantastic performance. Just hoping for no more injuries and we can really cook
