Draw fair result in scrappy game
Not too much quality on show from anyone and City energy levels and confidence seemed a little lower than at previous home games.
Bennett's distribution was woeful; Bryson put in an effective shift; but where was the ball over the top for Zohore to run on to?
The substitutions were 10 - 15 minutes too late imo.
In truth I went to the game so looking forward to the spectacle in prospect - and I was terribly disappointed. Did we flatter to deceive early on in the season? Have teams worked us out already?

Pleased with the point but in truth I don't think it was a fair result, weds should've won.

Your on another planet if you think we deserved anything from that. If we do not start keep possession better we are on a slippery slope to also ranks. KZ is taking the piss as well atm

(Reply from Uranus) Wednesday were the better side in the first half. We improved in the second, tho Zohore missed a headed sitter. Ward would've buried it
Re: Draw fair result in scrappy game
Wednesday dominated the ball but didn't create very much. Second half with the exception of the Fletcher chance all the efforts were towards the Canton stand. we deserved the draw even though we have played better.
Re: Draw fair result in scrappy game
I thought overall we weee the better side. First half they were marginally on top, but mainly playing in circles in their own half.
2nd half was wave after wave of City attached.
16-8 shot count and 8-2 on target
A point was the minimum we deserved. If we'd got a decision or bounce in the box earlier we could have got all 3.

This ^ Very good passing team, similar to Fulham, but apart from the goal really didn't bother our keeper. It was a scrappy game, we certainly were nowhere near our best, our passing was really poor at times, but we still got a point out of it.

Difficult to pass it through them when they sat so deep.
2 be half we pushed up and dominated, but not much opportunity to knock it about with 10 men behind the ball

The Sheffield Star Verdict : a draw was a fair result
Re: Draw fair result in scrappy game
Sheffield Wednesday should change their name to Sheffield Monday because they were pretty crap overall. We weren't great but we were better than them. Think our fans are too used to criticising the team / club innit.

Disagree, look at the shots on goal/target, Wednesday were decent at passing it around but woeful in the final third. City much better chances
