NERVY-OWL Posted February 19, 2021 Share Posted February 19, 2021 1 hour ago, Box11 said: I also agree buying Brewster was a total mistake and a waste of good money... CW is out of his depth at this level and has been found out this season for all to see... Certain fans only want him to stay in the job because he is a Sheffield lad... If it was anyone else they would be up in arms about what's happening at the club.... To be fair if we had a manager that had achieved what Wilder has with you I wouldn't mind the club giving him a chance to go up, it wouldn't matter if he was a boyhood supporter or not. Granted he has been shown up this season with some signings and he'd have to change approach if you by some miracle stayed up or got promoted back up to the premiership. I do have a very dim view of the premiership though, I really don't like what it's become so Wednesday being there isn't a big thing for me, it's only the money that I'd want to help the club so if we found a manager that got us up for a season or two then went down I wouldn't be too disheartened.

I agree the Premier league has become a monster.... But the point is to be the best if you can or for some to try and be that.... I know Sheffield United aren't Barcelona and at this rate never will be but to stick to a system and failing is no good for anyone no matter what team you are.... New blood fresh ideas are needed.... Why would any football supporter want their team to struggle for years then get to the top tier and get relegated and say "nevermind we can get back up" !!!!

To be honest, speaking cynically it's probably been worth over 200 million quid. Yes - we can question what its been spent on, but we've no automatic right to stay there. Everything being said - the run from 2016 has been the most fun since the Warnock years and we've had two years at the top table and played some of the best football I've ever seen at BDTBL. This season has been pretty dire but we got promoted earlier than we were planning, so we drop - suck it up and go again. Fingers crossed we win more than this season too .......

steved32 Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 CW is apparently frustrated over Mousset's ongoing injury problems, and it's reported that he has no patience with "high maintenance players." Well, does this show the management chink in his armour? Was due diligence done before splashing the cash? Same with McBurnie (no proven Premiership pedigree), the Liverpool reserve striker and nomadic Burke? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't believe what CW said last season when Henderson got man of the match.. "He's only a goalkeeper all he has to do is stand there how can a goalkeeper get man of the match" Unbelievable how a manager can say that about any footballer absolutely beyond me....

CW has a dry sense of humour and a great relationship with most of his players. That was said 'tongue in cheek'! Don't take everything he says literally. echo.
