If we can win enough of ours, between them Wednesday, Barnsley and Plymouth will all drop points. We just need to do enough to take advantage of them. Keeping our winning run going much longer would go a long way. |  |

Their centre-backs are mostly kick it and lump it types who aren’t comfortable with the ball, at least now McGuiness has gone back. They don’t have loads of pace going forward (Windass aside) so they’re not an amazing counter attacking team either. Most of their strength is in being able to control the midfield. |  |

Even Bannan, supposedly the best player to have ever played in L1 etc., just pings the ball forward as soon as he gets it. |  |

Sheff Weds were superb for the majority of the first half at PR, and they were lethal. Out second half tally was exceptional and they were on the ropes I suppose given that they hit the bar when 2-0 up then you’re right they edged it But we really did batter them for 40mins second half I did like how we defenced in the final 5 mins… could have easily have caved in to their late pressure |  |

I still think he’s quality and probably the best player in the league but he has gone missing in the big games a bit. Didn’t do a lot in either game against us this year. |  |

Even if Barnsley do win this we’ve also got to go there as well and probably get a result. I can’t see any good outcome here - can they both lose? 🤣 |  |

Apart from a mad 20 minutes after we missed a penalty, we absolutely battered them. Sod hitting the bar, we missed a penalty! How we’ve not taken 6 points off them this season I’ll never know. |  | |  |

I think if they control teams and pin them back, they're very physical and hard to stop from crosses They're physical, organised and very good at what they do but as a pure footballing side, I'd put us above them Barnsley remind me a bit of us under Royle, their front two are lively and tricky to deal with but their midfield doesn't look hugely in this game at the moment, their strength looks like it's through their wings?

Yeah the physicality is a big part of Wednesday’s game, at both ends of the pitch. Gregory and Smith look like scoring every time a cross comes in. Interesting to see Bannan dropping back into defence at points in the first half to start attacks from deep. |  |

Yep. But they have the fun of a cup final too, which can lift or deflate. And it’s another game for a relatively thin squad |  | |  |
