Eddie stunting on these hoes, you love to see it
Sheffield United are straight up terrible, they weren’t good to begin with but the defensive injuries have crippled them.
Your defence is in trouble, Nketiah in the room on the official speaker 🤣🤣
Honestly think Sheffield could break the record for the fewest premier league points of all time.

Ah thanks for the clarification! It was really confusing to know whether he was talking about Sheffield United or Sheffield Wednesday!
EDDIE!!!
Sheff United chasing Derby’s 89 goal conceded in 38 game season record.
It’s incredible how bad Sheffield United were
Genuinely not seen a Sheffield United team as bad as this since the League One days.
Great time to be a Derby fan.
I know it’s Sheffield, but I’m so happy for Eddie and Tomi!

SIR EDWARD NKETIAH XIV
Good win but Arteta constantly treading outside the technical area ruined all the fun for me, what a despicable, miserable character
On the brightside for Sheffield, their away kits look super fresh IMO.
Also, does their keeper look like Keegan-Michael Key (from Key and Peele) to anyone else?
*Sheffield Utd
Played like him too.
Woo! This was such a relaxing match to watch. It didn’t feel like Sheffield threatened at all. We were on cruise control. Arteta finally got around to some much needed rotation, with Smith-Rowe’s first start in the PL this season.
Eddie’s first hat-trick and will silence a lot of critics (myself included!). Goals for Tomiyasu and Viera are a plus.
Kiwior was solid. Such a boon to have reliable back up options.
arteta bought havertz to displace odegaard
