    When we can beat the top Premiership sides Liverpool and Chelsea and are absolutely rubbish against mediocre Championship sides. What changes.

    Is it the commitment or the planning. It can't be ability of the players. It has to be down to tactics and the Manager.

    Davey said he changed his plans after watching Chelsea in the Champions League and decided they had to get stuck in and "in their faces", close down and not give Chelsea time on the ball in midfield.....so why against Sheff Utd did the midfield sit off and not close them down? That's what you need to do in a derby match.

    its because the players obviously care more about beating chelsea and liverpool than stopping up, in those two games every player ran their blood to water, dived in like mad men to prevent shots etc,

    what other games can you say the players have had the same commitment this season
