Do you really think so? I think you've bought into the accepted view a bit.
Its our style and how the players are being used that’s making them look good.
Duffy was good league 1 quality all his career but under Wilder our fans swear blind he was a top quality upper Championship quality.
He goes to Stoke...they think he‘s crap and can’t get in their team....without SU Duffy will revert back to being good league 1 standard.
McGoldrick has been average Championship standard all his career.....whilst at SU he looks top quality.....even possibly PL quality.
If Didzy played for any other club he‘d revert back to Champiomship standard.
Mousset was underwhelming to poor at Bournmouth....he comes to us and starts looking a decent PL player.
If Mouset leaves us....ive no doubt he’s likely to look poor again.
The proof is in the facts.....let’s see how many PL clubs make decent transfer offers (over 10 million) for any of our players.
Also I suspect if most of our current players leave....then they’re careers will likely stall and gradually go down hill.
Wilder knows the concept of round pegs in rounds holes,., so he studies a players strengths and weakensss and gives them a job where their strengths are continuosly used and their weakness are either covered elsewhere or don‘t matter. Basically Wider is making players perform better than their real standard.
Thats because he focuses on what a player brings to “the team”.....their individual ability is irrelevant because it’s currently not used.
I remember similar things happening at Nottingham Forest under Clough....they’d buy an average player and he’d very quickly appear top quality playing in that Forest team....eventually Forest would sell him at a big profit and that player would quickly revert to being average again.
