Bristol City vs Sheffield United

The Blades head to Ashton Gate looking for back-to-back wins.

They are pleasing on the eye to watch. Sometimes they play with three in midfield, some times they play with a two and a 10. We’ll see how we will shape up and I’d expect us to play on the front foot The Blades arrive at Ashton Gate with renewed confidence following victory at West Brom on Saturday and are looking to build on that here tonight. The expectation levels for them are pretty high. It’s eleven lads against eleven lads when they go out there on Tuesday night.

All the ratings as City fell to an undeserved defeat at the hands of Sheffield United despite their dominance.

Struggled to impose himself in the first 45 minutes and barely had a sniff of goal. Made a dazzling run in the box at the end of the first half. Moved to wing-back in the second half and drifted out of the game. Dragged an effort wide of the target but found it difficult to beat his man in a 1 vs 1 situation. Was rarely tested from a defensive perspective in the first half and a searching pass forward to find Weimann when his effort clipped the bar. A couple of nervy moments in possession left the manager bellowing down in the dugout.

Booked for his part in a brawl after the Tanner red. A quiet night in front of goal however with only half opportunities Second game in which Vyner has had to play in the centre and take on a leadership role. Sharp sandwiched in between Tanner and Vyner allowed Ndiaye to head past the onrushing O’Leary.

I got the shape of the team wrong to start with and had to make a change in the first half. We had to rely on experience, a winning mentality and strong defending. In the end, there were chances we should have converted. The sending-off was a rash challenge and clear-cut. United made a change in the 34th minute, with McAtee replacing Khadra. Wes Foderingham was back in goal for United, while boss Paul Heckingbottom also brought in Billy Sharp, Reda Khadra and Jack Robinson.

The flu situation has cleared up with several of the Under-21's players returning to Ali Hines' squad for their 2-0 win over Charlton Athletic.

We had to put that team out, we were always going to change and we had to do it as soon as possible really.” "I had to change as soon as we could.

Nigel Pearson joked Reda Khadra must have wished he'd opted for Bristol City over the Blades having been replaced after just 34 minutes at Ashton Gate.

[In an interview this week with Sky Sports](https://www.skysports.com/football/story-telling/11095/12734982/nigel-pearson-interview-bristol-city-manager-on-changing-the-culture-at-the-club), Pearson also outlined one of the key building blocks to his success at Leicester City was signing a few “mavericks” in the final third, referencing Jamie Vardy, Riyad Mahrez and Anthony Knockaert. [during last week’s fans forum](https://www.bristolpost.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/bristol-city-loans-nigel-pearson-7757117) on the potential pitfalls of bringing in players temporarily from the top-flight while he’s also previously mentioned the culture at City wasn’t right to introduce such a signing. But he was a player we tried to get in the summer. “I think it’s more to do with them thinking, ‘any chance of him running around?’ I think it was quite a brave decision to hook him off. Khadra signed for Sheffield United in July having spent last season on loan at Blackburn Rovers where he scored four goals and added two assists in 27 appearances. It did, though, continue what has been a disappointing start to Khadra’s time at the Blades, with the Germany under-21 international coming under fire from supporters.

Bristol City fell to a 1-0 defeat to Sheffield United at Ashton Gate, despite having the best chances.

The sending-off is a red card there is no doubt about that but I would suggest also that in the lead-up to that the control in the game was lost. "There’s no point in me going in there ranting and raving although the players are as frustrated as anyone else. City’s winless run extended to three and a lack of consistency has seen them slump down the table. What I said when I came off the pitch I don’t like it when the officials don’t give us true information in how long there is in the game. He added: “There are a lot of things that have gone on tonight which contributed to it. We just don’t concede good goals, the goals we concede are ones that we look at ourselves and go ‘wow that’s avoidable.

A number of other times Sheffield United’s defence dug them out of trouble, with Chris Basham landing the Player of the Match award a nod to how good they had to be defensively. Heckingbottom will know that and his players will too. Ultiamtely, though, that doesn’t matter as it equates to the same amount of points. Last night’s goal was nothing special, just a simple close-range header after some poor Bristol City defending and a fortunate offside call. It’s also got them back in-form after six without a win, which will be particularly important ahead of Saturday’s meeting with Burnley. Following on from that point, you have to outline how Sheffield United are going to have to be better if they want to finish in the top-two this season.
