Mentioned this elsewhere and would be totally left field out of our range
Domineco tedesco
Recently sacked as Belgium head coach
Stranger things have happened 😁😁
 

Tbh dyhce knows how to get out of the championship ( if we're still here of course) but other than him only names on that list are oniel and selles
Other than rafa our beloved neighbours would have a hissy fit 🤣🤣🤣
 
I'd want to change things round. Look to appoint the most exciting young European manager. It has to be Danny Rohl. I'd take the gamble just to see their faces.
 
We're playing Dyche-like football right now but without a solid defence.

If we were to achieve promotion, and we did employ Sean Dyche this is, his record in the premier league.
 
Dyche played a narrow 4-4-2 with a deep defensive line. We are by no measure playing Dychesque football. We play a mid to high line and 4-2-3-1. Hamer drifts inside to open the space for Burrows. The other wing depends on the fullback/wide player. United also play out and build up a lot more than Dyche sides. Indeed our critics on here criticise us for slow build up play.

I'd be surprised if there's a side in the league that lines up with more attacking starters. I'd class Seriki, Burrows, the front three and O'Hare all as attacking picks.

And our record in 23/24

W3 D7 L28 F35 A104 GD -69 PTS 16

And 2020/21 wasn’t much better was it?

Let’s face it we’d kill for a few years of that sort of record to keep us up banking the sky money etc.

Brighton are doing well now but their first few years in the league they had to battle to stay up. Not saying it’s comparable as we obv ain’t got their scouting standards or general strategy nous but that is something you can work on and improve - bloody helps to have stability in the top flight to be able to work on these things without having to keep thinking about yo-yoing.

Not even 100% about wanting Dyche myself but absolutely zero idea why people keep shitting on his numbers like they were bad given budget/expectations. We ain’t exactly in a position to dish out snobbery.

You’re right but when did we last see Burrows venture further than 15 yards over the halfway line before turning and passing backwards? Not his fault, he’s obviously been told not to risk attacking their full backs?

Burrows has one of the highest goal/assist numbers of any fullback/wingback in the league. This despite playing full back not wing back. The former being more of a more defensive position for obvious reasons.

United would raid the Japanese and South Korean leagues, it'd be free-scoring, never boring football.
Dang. I was just gunna say Ange. Love to have him. Be handy if he had someone who gave a fuck about defence as his no.2 mind.

And yet we've scored a pathetic amount of goals for a team chasing automatic promotion.

We've scored the perfect amount of goals for a team chasing automatic promotion. Hence 85 points from 42 games. You need one goal to win a game of football. Usually you need 90 points. 30 goals is enough.

Absolute delusion of the highest order. The football this season has been absolutely turgid except for a few games where we've looked like Wilder teams of the past. I honestly don't know why and when he lost his bottle or the desire for "front foot football" as he's repeatedly told everyone but this version of Wilder is an absolute shadow of his former self.

The worst bit is with the squad we have there's absolutely no reason for it either.

So explain the automatic adjacent points haul? (rhetorical question). You can't. You want more goals maybe. We need them to get 90 points? Yes, two goals.

“You need one goal to win a game of football”
Unless the opposition score 1 or more goals

All good and well until the pressure games hence losing three on the trot in the last leg of the season and not forgetting losing to the top teams.

I, like yourself, would prefer more goals. I can't however say we need them as the points total looks like it'll get us ninety points. If we don't go up with that it'll be because of two juggernauts getting ridiculous points totals. If you offer me ninety points and the same goal output for the rest of my life I'll sign for it right now. United would win a lot of Premier League titles and be out of the Championship in the near future.

This is not snobbery. Sheffield United as a football club/ business need to be tactically smart and full of talent and that means everyone, so we can say, we deserve our place in the Premier League. Just as Brentford have.
 
Wilder is going nowhere.

If someone else did come in at some point though, I think we should try to prise Carlos Carvalhal off Braga.

Tricky though, as they're 3rd in the Portuguese Primeira Liga with just 5 losses this season.

We could of course try to sweeten any deal by offering him an additional scrunched up £20 note 💷 😏

Pretty good compared to our last couple of visits to the Premier league
 
I might get pelters for this but if we want a different playing style what about Carrick? He’s underperforming at the moment, but the first season with Boro he had them playing really fluid attacking football. Probably the most exciting team I watched that season.

Maybe with better players & budget under us he could give the fans a bit more excitement.
 
It'd have to be Ange Postecoglou, Nick Montgomery, Harry Kewell set-up, then add accordingly to the coaching team.

Oh yes 😍

Sorry goal diff compared to the top2 is abysmal , it could cost us hugely
 

If we were to change manager I think we need someone who can be the catalyst for a different football philosophy that can be embedded throughout the club .
Last season some of the teams we played looked like they were playing a different game altogether.
It's not just us but there's a way of getting success in the championship that isn't codusive to competing in the PL, it's one of the reasons promoted teams struggle .

It'll take time to get there but I think it's the best way of being a perennial yo-yp club.
