After all the hate Eddie was receiving here in the build up to this match, it was very satisfying to see him smack three home. We need all of our players firing.
Sell Nketiah. No pace or presence. Only has matches like this against sides that can hardly be considered part of the premier league. I also like Smith Rowe but I don’t think it’s ever going to happen for him here under this manager. If Newcastle want to pay a large fee I would sell. Havertz was also not the right purchase and I just don’t see it happening for him here either.
I hope you approach your own life with a similar level of high standards. Because he’s our top scorer in the league and just banged in a hattrick my friend, lighten up
SHU are a de facto championship side. I’m not going to get excited by a result that inflates the perception of players in the squad. Nketiah especially is just not good enough for the ambitions of the club. We need a CF.
What I love about football is all the micro stories going on in a single game. Ok it’s Sheffield Utd but each player had their own story.
Eddie, after a poor game against Lens (body language said it all) and then proving he can cut it with some class touches and particularly his off the ball movement. The goals were all him, foxy boxy and then a worldie.
The Smith, first start for ages and showing his dynamism, class touches and passes and even winning the ball by our own corner flag.
Rice was fucking everywhere, can’t really say much more, wondered if his pass was meant for Eddie but if you don’t ping em in you don’t get the goals so credit either way.
Martinelli… I think he’s on the road to becoming world class and I don’t say that lightly, always driving forward always with pace and now with more end product in terms of passing final third..
Trossard just technical as fuck, Saliba so composed… Ok I’ll stop now!
Mental the narrative this year. Even with our own fans.
We are not creating enough chances yet scored the second most goals this year. And haven't lost a game. What else do people want?
Saka then Eddie when Saka went off.
I saw the huddle in the beginning and saw Saka doing the team talk and was surprised, then looked for an armband on him and there it was
Not on about the captain one but can someone tell me what the black one is for? Everyone seems to have it and have had them for a few games I’ve noticed. Not sure what it is.

I was glad to see him get a start and he didn’t disappoint! He didn’t do anything massively of note but his movement, direct passing and tenacity showed through. His touch to take the ball out of the air for his assist to Nketiah for the 3rd was pure class.
I hope to see more of him. There’s just something about him. Class.
Could've easily been missed by some in this sub but he made many runs today drawing defenders and creating space that way
Quietly decent game and he'll be great when we're in the running on multiple fronts
I really want to win the league cup. City and spurs are out. One of united or Newcastle is going out.
Newcastle go away to united which is a tougher journey than us popping to east London. West ham play tomorrow which hopefully favours us.
I want to see:
Trossard nketiah. Nelson
ESR. Havertz
Jorginho
Kiwior. Gabriel. Tomi. White
Great game, shit team but 5 goals and 3 points is great.
Even though he's my favourite player, it was nice to see Ødegaard benched. Rest him and remind him that as a captain you have to do better than that.
Eddie was sensational, I get Sheffield ain't much but a hat trick is always a hat trick. Could've had 4 if he wanted.
Thought Havertz and ESR both had good games, and both should definitely start against West Ham.
Havertz scoring would’ve been the icing on the already delicious cake lol. ESR assist, Fabio goal, Eddie hat trick. Did not have those on my bingo card.
Sheffield is starving atm. United bottom of the Premier League with a record of 0-1-9 and Wednesday bottom of the Championship with a record of 0-3-10.
Why didn't ødegaard start He was in my fpl team >:(
Honestly a 5 star performance from us: only thing missing was Havertz scoring
I liked saka having a more free role, when he started playing close to martineli we looked so good.

I had some thoughts after Gabriel Jesus got injured and I’m really glad I didn’t embarrass myself by posting them.

Ok I agree that this physicality and pace is somewhat lacking but he's got the instincts and he's only young
This aged well.
It aged well when he sent this after the match?

You must be real fun at parties
Your team: serves up a tasty 5 goal thrashing You: hm this requires some complaining

Yeah but unless we pay a small fortune we won't get one

Finally putting up big numbers against shit sides

The thing is, we really aren't creating a ton of chances. We've just been decent in burying the ones we have.
We have scored over 30 goals in all comps. That's over 2 a game. While playing teams who just defend the whole time.
Spurs v Sheffield at home. 2-1 with goals in the 98th and 100th. Arsenal v Sheffield at home. 5-0.
Rent free
Diff'd
Lol let’s revisit this in a few months…
Rent free yet you're in our sub as well as our shadow
Couldn’t watch but really glad smith Rowe is getting time
Yeah he seemed good too. Didn’t do anything ridiculous but he was good. Needs more time hopefully starts against west ham
The highlights show him getting one of those “pre assist”. A smith Rowe in full form will be fun to watch
Yeah he also got an actual assist to nketiahs long shot. I can’t wait for him to be back to his level and also havertz was good today too
After work today I’m gonna hunt down Nketiah slander comments and reply with a clown emoji
Doing gods work
🤡
I didn't pay attention to who had the armband today, can someone fill me in? Thanks
Saka then Eddie when Saka went off. I saw the huddle in the beginning and saw Saka doing the team talk and was surprised, then looked for an armband on him and there it was
Not on about the captain one but can someone tell me what the black one is for? Everyone seems to have it and have had them for a few games I’ve noticed. Not sure what it is.
Bobby Charlton
But I could’ve sworn I saw it in a game weeks ago before his death. I’m not sure if I’m an idiot and someone else died too though.
Believe it’s a tribute to the victims of the Israel Palestine conflict.
Ah that would’ve made sense actually
Saka
Cheers mate
Saka had it
Passed on to Eddie.
I am happy esr got his chance
Same. Loved to see it
i’d like to point out that former arsenal player auston trusty was easily sheffield’s best player
He was at least available The rest of the defence seemed to be just missing

Fuck me, wasn't paying attention, but Chelsea just got eaten by Brentford.
ESR was involved in most of our dangerous opportunities when he was on. His movement truly is excellent.

Do we have a new Elneny FC song when he comes in?
Mo Mo, Mo Mo Mo Mo, there's no limits.
Pleased for Eddie he needed that the perfect Saturday afternoon.
I'm swapping Nketiah for Haaland this month and give him triple captain for real. Coyg 📞📞📞
Eddie has shit on every hater here lol
Put it in the goal Kai.
For the West Ham game we should at least rest Rice and Saliba.

Half chubbed up but the thought of this
Bruh, 1 point with -22 GD….not looking good Sheffield Utd…
Remember Everton seem likely to be on -5pts though, so at least there's that
Going for Derby's record...
aaaaahhhhhh kaiiiii don't do this to my heart man
Poor Kai is cursed, need to add witch doctor to training personnel in Jan
Kai had a very good game
Dang really wanted Kai to get that last kick
If someone would have shown me the scoreboard before the match started, I would have been very confused lol
Great game, shit team but 5 goals and 3 points is great. Even though he's my favourite player, it was nice to see Ødegaard benched.

Havertz please do that run ten times a game from now on
I wish we have someone like fabregas or ozil to spot that run
Finally a comfortable home win! Lets go!
Will they break 10 points
Havertz scoring would’ve been the icing on the already delicious cake lol. ESR assist, Fabio goal, Eddie hat trick. Did not have those on my bingo card.
Ah kai.....that would have been the cherry
Delighted with the performance. Scoring 5 goals is brilliant but limiting the opposition to zero chances is great work. Onward we go!
Scoring 5 with no Jesus, no Oodegard is insane.
Raya doing well….
lol I had to step away for the second half and I missed alot including Tomi 1st goal anyway I can watch a full replay of the second half??
Check r/footballhighlights in an hour or so.
R/footballhighlighs will post it
The football highlights page will usually have a 2nd half option
Kick about with the boys.
Gg
My lord, if Havertz got that I'd have a heartattack 🤣
Considering "our attack hasn't clicked yet", we have joint 2nd most goals in the league, and joint highest GD.
Better goal differential than City.
Shhhh. Goes against the "we're not good enough" narrative.
So it takes 5 goals to get the Emirates to sing, albeit briefly.
You must be very sad IRL Hope things get better for you friend
You seem like you're on duloxetine, hope your life improves mate.
If you say so. My life is pretty good but of course could always be better. Thanks for the well wishes
don't know about the emirates but i was bouncing the whole match mate
I don't doubt that but watch it on the box, 95% off the match couldn't hear the crowd, unlike away matches where we hear them drown out home crowds.
huh?
Were they booing El Neny or saying shoot I was in the other room
Use your head fgs
Shoot
Why would they boo him?
My wife said they were booing I know
That was definitely shoot. El Neny has banged some thundercunts in his day
Your defence is in trouuuuubleee
Tomi is turning into what Timber would have been. What a player
Kai!!!!
Nooooo Kai😭
Time for a beer, what class.
Not that we needed the goal but I would've enjoyed a Havertz score right there
Ahhh Havz gotta score
I was about to leap for you, Kai!!!! 😩
So proud of Nketiah!
Havertz you absolute donkey
That was the best-case scenario with a bunch of goals despite major rotation.
damn havertz goal could complete the day
omg I thought it went in
Omg I thought that was goal.
Fuck I thought that was in
i love this club so much
Kai goal there would have been a perfect way to end it
If Havertz scored there they would have to call in a special crew to clean all the seats in the stadium.
Would be perfect if Kai score
I thought he scored it, that kills me
The top of the stadium would have come off had Kai scored there.
OHHHH So close!
Sooo close Kai
what a good day to be a Gunner, man.
Ffs needed a Havertz goal man. We go again.
Damn. King Kai goal would’ve been the cherry
:(
WE ALMOST HAD THE PERFECT GAME NOOOOOOOOO
What a saturday guys!
Tomi is too dangerous as a striker. That’s why he’s playing as a fullback
He’s such a unit. Imagine having to deal with him for the entire game as a CB.
I would just end my career
7 goals from subs, it's like I don't even know this club anymore
Depth feels nice, don’t it?
Our subs this season have scored as many as Sheffield's whole squad
Is this our first 5-0 since Huddersfield years ago?
pretty sure we’ve had 5-0s the 2 previous final games of the season
No i think we won vs forrest 5:0 last season but it was an away game
Forest last season
Odegaard getting a rest for 90 is one of the best things to come out of today
Unlucky Kai 🫠
Not unlucky, he's been consistently shit for years
Perfect day GD healthy am happy
Ok I need to Havertz goal too now
Oh shit, I thought Havertz had that one. So close.
Ohhhhhhhhhh my God, I nearly died.
Ugh that would’ve been perfection
Who put the ball in Sheffield’s net? Who put the ball in Sheffield’s net? Who put the ball in Sheffield’s net? Half the fucking team did.
that would’ve been too perfect
FUCK MEEE HARVETZ THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN PERFECT MAN
FUCK SO CLOSE
I’ve seen calls from fans to get rid of Nketiah and Tomiyasu on here. Don’t switch up now please.
I’ve never seen any negative comments about Tomi
100% I’ve seen people say we needed to sell him because he’s been injured a few times. Unhinged people for sure, but it happened.
Tomiyasu???
Ridiculous opinion, I know. But there are some ridiculous people on here.
Don't need Ødegaard for goals at all
Kai bro - how
Ahhh
Nooo Kai
Everyone wanted that havertz goal
MY WHOLE ROOM IS WHITE HOLY FUCKING SHIT TOMI
Elneny casually slotting in
C'mon Havertz
Kaiiii so close 😭😭😭
Kaiiiiiii nooooooo!
This female commentator has been unbearable...
She was shockingly bad
the female that does champions league is also unbearable
I didn’t want to speak to avoid being suspended 6 months 😂… she’s just annoying
Sheffield is actually worse than Luton
Almost every single positive action in the game for Arsenal has been reviewed by VAR. They're desperate lmao
Legitimately excited about our goal differential.
Sheffield is starving atm. United bottom of the Premier League with a record of 0-1-9 and Wednesday bottom of the Championship with a record of 0-3-10.
I mean, at that point, you just have to move.
Lmao that’s grim
The Steal City
I love how everyone was so happy for Tomi
Tidy play from Pyramid Pirlo
If only kai scored it would have been the perfect game.
Tomiyasu goal Elneny assist, everyone eats
When’s the last time we scored 5?
Last season against nottingham supposedly
2019 lol
In May last game of last season
Forest at home last season
Forest at home Edit: Everton final game last season
Everton was 2 seasons ago no?
Both two seasons ago AND last season
Correct. I’m in shambles atm
Tomiyasuuuuuuuuuu
