Sheffield has got a decent park and ride system, it's about £4.50 a pop.
 If you've got mobility issues Brammal Lane isn't particularly close to a tram stop though so you might have to walk for 20 minutes or so.

After the Brentford and villa games this has become almost a must win game.
Already 8 points off the top we could be 10-11 off it if we don't win this one. Hopefully mozza HRK are back in contention

Not a "must win"..A real GOT TO! ....WIN. We are dropping down. DM must stop this decline. He has to drop his chums and go for victory.

Which chums are these? You are incredibly negative this season.

Must-win for me if we are serious about finishing top 2, Leeds and Norwich don't look like slipping up and we can't afford to be 10 points behind them. Gayle needs to be through the middle, can't believe it's come to this but HRK is probably a better option than JRod on the right, hopefully Mozza is back in for Barry.

In Moore's mind: Gayle and JRod both scored against Villa so I'll keep it as it is.

It would be easier to accommodate them with a further tweak to the formation;

                  Johnstone
Adirabayo Dawson Hegazi Gibbs
    Phillips Livermore Morrison
                     Barnes
               Rodriguez Gayle

If he wants to play both that's the team. If Darren wants to stay 3 up top it's got to be Gayle through the middle and HRK on the wing and Jrod on the bench

That's not a tweak it's a massive departure. Playing without width is not a slight change unfortunately and I don't see us doing it, or indeed want us to.

Second this but also this is a game where our ability to break using the flanks will be vital. Sheffield United play a back 3/5 where fairly uniquely the outside centre backs overlap. J-Rod will be used centrally to drop in and help the midfield with Barnes and another left high on the flanks. The game will be won in the wide positions: will their overloads lead to goals or will we be able to repel them and exploit the gaps they leave high and wide. For me, it is I.important that our two wide central midfielders, are extremely mobile and energetic. I'd have Phillips and maybe a youngster like Harper if he can be trusted enough to be diligent defensively.

I'm presuming Robson-Kanu and Morrison will be available for this game so back to normal.

I agree we really do have to win if we are hoping to be in touch with the top 2 at the start of the new year.  But a draw would deny a rival 2 points, and they are pretty hot at home this season.

Has reffed us twice this season at home to Bristol City and away at Wigan. Remember him being a bit of a homer against Wigan and giving them free kicks every time one of their players hit the deck.

I'll be honest I am giving this a miss, its one too many night games in a row.

Went Ipswich the other week and obviously the home games but going to watch this at home.

Massive amount of Christmas parties this Friday as well which may have a bearing

I'm going, had to miss Ipswich and Swansea due to work commitments but can leave work at 4 on Friday, so will drive straight to Sheffield. To be honest as much as the game being moved for TV is annoying it's meant that I can spend the weekend with my partner and get up the allotment early on Sunday morning!
