message for Adkins

[super_pig]

either way up. with notable exceptions, on the whole these players have let you and us down.. either they are good enough but have let you down. or they aren't good enough anyway. either way they should be got rid of
for goodness sake man. save yourself and stop protecting these fools.
if you come out and say 'look.. i have to remain positive in order to gain results but now the season is over i can say these people are shite' and you desist with this strange obsession over Dean Hammond then i will give you a bit longer.

 

[BeatleBlade]

Get rid of as many as possible. Keep Long though. Possibly McEveley as back up (depending on how low the budget is).

 

[super_pig]

i want a statement. i want to know if the guy is trying hard or totally deluded. i'm still not sure.

I'd go with the former. I think he's trying his very best not to publicly criticise the players and his employers and it's coming across as delusion.

 

[YES Blade]

Would you like it if your boss came out in public, days before sacking you, saying you were shit at your job? They are human beings after all, no need to treat them like shit.

All about actions for me, just get rid of the crap players. It doesn't matter what Adkins says, his actions need to speak far louder.

have you had a bang on your head, i wouldnt want mcevely in any position he is a poor excuse for a footballer with a bad habit of pressing the self destruct handballing button without warning, not to be trusted.

Learn more about football. Learn about Sheffield United. Ditch your cringeworthy interview template. Be ruthless with the current players. Sign the right types of players. Sign them ASAP. Don't wait all summer for any one player.

For a start.

sorry i meant a statement of intent.

I said depending on the budget and as a squad player. If it's low are we going to get anyone better as back up? He's been alright for parts of the season, better than the other defenders for long spells.

 

[Tyler Durden]

Stop your messing around.

Better think of your future.

Time you straightened right out.....

 

[grafikhaus]

Be ruthless with the current players.

But he can't just boot most of the current wasters out. They're under contract.

Strange though when players contracts like Murphy's mean absolutely nothing...

 

[Grappler]

Stop your messing around.

Time you straightened right out.....

Creating problems in town......

 

[Roygbiv]

We will soon see if he's deluded or not I suppose. Keeping any of the out of contract players other than Long will be a good indication that he's a bit mad. Signing Hammond should see him sectioned

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

Adkins "one on one's" begin in the morning and the outcomes will tell you all you need to know where we are headed.

 

[HillmortonBlade]

This thread is a touch of sanity* in the Shoutbox-esque meltdown cascading around us.


* Tyler Durden's post excepted, obviously

Shoutbox-esque meltdown

I was trying to think of a suitable phrase yesterday. You had it all along. Hopefully today we'll see some sober reflection from us and a little less emotion

When it come to criticism George & young Che, seem to shunted to one side, I cannot understand why. One is bang average, the other hugely underachieving on his so called potential.

This the phrase is . . . . . . Hugely over rated

To be honest Carl, both these lads are capable of improvement but I have got to say that I am sure I am not alone in thinking CA was going to rip this league apart. I know he has had one or two personal problems, but the lad has had a full season, yet we never know what to expect from him from one game to the next. He should have been able to shine alongside the vast majority of the dross he played alongside. Maybe he will do it at Burton next season

Neither are senior pros. Both will only improve. They've not been amazing but we can't expect to rely on them yet anyway. Next season will need to be one of notable improvement if they're to make it, but for the timebeing they're ok.

It's our senior players who let us down most. No leadership, fight or intelligence between them. Younger players alongside that lot aren't exactly in a nurturing environment....

Yes he is quick of foot when wants to be, but he is unfortunately still "dining out" on his Tottenham goals. There are players in league one who are similar in age to Chè but they have proved themselves and also tortured the Blades in the process.
