Wilder is complicit in creating this mess in the first place! This is why the board should have gone for a new manager. Can you not recall how shit we were for the majority of last season, especially from around March onwards?

What an absolute load of bolocks. How shit we were 🫨 we finished on 92 points 92 POINTS, that would get you automatic promotion the previous 20 out of 25 seasons in the championship. How on gods green earth was getting 92 points equate to how shit we were. If the board hadn’t have wet their pants when we lost at Wembley and instead given Chris a few quid to fine tune the squad then we would have walked this division this season.

Players don't want to be there was same under selles and exactly same under wilder, peck shouldn't be starting. Campbell looks like his head was turned before the season started, burrows not good enough on present from all players who was more than capable last season so they need a good hard look at them selfs in the mirror. O'hare is a real mix of emotions as some of the stuff he does I like but goals and assist wise for the creative spark is a concern. Hamer hasn't sown us this season what he can has always loved a yellow but looks very reckless at times and hasn't had the creative spark he has in previous seasons. Said the same thing under selles as now back with wilder the players on paper should not be down the bottom of the league it can't just be blamed on the manager when the players can't be arsed to turn up. Also wilder lover or hater it was totally the wrong decision to bring him back for a 3rd spell that shows no sign of the club moving forward at all just a horrible rutt. What happens next time wilder gets sacked or leaves? We get a manager in and he does shit and then phone wilder back up 4th stint rinse and repeat? For me we needed to get rid of selles as that was obvious he wasn't the right man but then should have spent the international break doing research of managers and brought a totally new manager through the door new manager bounce and show some ambition of wanting to move the club forward.

So we by do we bother ffs

Been in deeper shit than this and come through it , imagine being a 🐷
 
Well, if things dont improve and we keep losing, we are in bother, aren't we? Having said that, Chris Wider, it would be unfair not to give him time to solve the mess we are in. We have good players who got 92 points last season; unfortunately, we are miles off it. Be interesting to think it the owners did not sack Chris Wilder. Would we be in the position we are now? All I can say is give him time to bring us around and get us back on track. Time will tell.

Give him a chance.

As it stands, and as I suspected we have serious problems that are not related to the person standing in the dugout, whoever that may be.

Some of these players need a gigantic kick up the arse.

Lmfao. They gave him a few quid and he bought Cannon. Bloke couldn’t spend well if he were buying a ten pence mix.

The first time Wilder came back he had a big job on to win over a lot of the fans, he gave us a bit of fight but we were generally awful defensively for the rest of that season.

Last season he won over a lot of the remaining doubters with a big rebuild and winning football, but his attitude when he started to get criticism in the second half of the season rubbed a lot up the wrong way, so although most fans wouldn't have fired him, many could understand why he was.

This season, a lot of Chris Wilder fans wanted Selles to fail and couldn't accept anyone but Wilder in charge. Now Wilder is back, he has to get results or the fanbase will get even more divided.

Today's game just summed up why he was sacked in the first place, toothless sideways nothing, sloppy defending giving away a goal and substitutions that made the team worse than before. We have to stick with Wilder now whatever happens but he has to find a way to create chances and pick up points quickly or it'll get really toxic.

No it won't get toxic pal, the Wilder fans will just except it, not blame him in anyway! ( which in a way it's not) but make any excuses its not his fault. Until somebody gets hold of this club with an ounce of ambition ( which ain't going to happen,) were stuck in a time warp! Roll on Rotherham away 😊 next season
 
These Wilder threads can be very odd.

On one hand, some people are very clearly sentimental about Wilder, nostalgic about when we played good football and shocked the country. Nothing wrong with that on its own, but it gets to a point, in some people, where it genuinely seems like they support Wilder more than they support the club. On the other, there are people who seem to revel in Wilder's (and by extension United's) failure, because they have a genuine dislike for Wilder on a personal level.

When these two sets of fans interact, it quickly becomes toxic. I'm certainly not suggesting that everyone is like this, there are very thoughtful posts on these threads, but they descend into slinging matches very often.

For one thing, I hope Wilder can turn it around, for the sake of the club.
 
We have had the second most possession of any team in the championship this season ( second to Southampton) and have zero points and have had 4 or 5 shots on target in 6 games.
Clearly what we are doing is not effective. We are too slow in possession, too static, and too hesitant in everything we do. Confidence must play a big part in this.
What can we do to change it ?
Play two up front and sacrifice a bit of possession for more attacking intent?
Sit in a low block and invite teams on to us so there is more space in front of us to work in?
Or do as we are but do it better, quicker, more movement, get the ball in quicker, have midfielders gambling on the ball going into the area.?
I'm really not sure but we have to change something because our attacking play at the moment is stagnant and devoid of any ideas or creativity.
 

The evidence of last season was there to be found, if you looked for it, prior to bringing Chris back.

Sadly, we tossed promotion away, twice, and frankly I'm glad, on the back of dropping points in the games that mattered. The PO final performance and result was so utterly predictable.

I love what he did for us in the past but he is a spent force whose ego is absolutely wrapped up in BDTBL and I get that.

He has the dream job of any Blade but that doesn't automatically mean he's the right guy for us now or going forward.

I didn't want him back the second time as I didn't want to see his personal legacy spoiled. I don't want it to affect him personally either.

People, grown adults, treating him as the 'chosen one' is ridiculous and potentially harmful.

I've seen many relationships go sour in my working life. He could and should have left it after CW1.

Repeated rebounding rarely succeeds long term.

Pragmatic Blade here today.
 
We have sold quality players & replaced them with bang average ones , for all on here that couldn’t wait to get rid of Moore we were crying out yesterday for target man to hold the ball up .
The lack of creativity is a massive concern & need to address this ASAP . Think we possibly need to go back to 352 with the players we’ve got now
 
This club went t!ts up when Hecky was stabbed in the back and Wilder sneaked in the back door he had left by. This isn’t about Sheffield United anymore it’s about one man (who was a legend). Just imagine, what would the condemnation on here if that result yesterday had been under Sellés?

Wilder deserves the same criticism at least. His project players upfront leading the line. Yes, his project Davies needs to be fit and Peck taken off he’s the MF weakness. Not all his fault, thrown in at the deep end when Arblaster got crocked but failure to replace him and then CB debacle for Cannon seems to have slipped everyone’s mind.

Seems the biggest flag ever a BDTBL wasn’t money well spent, an ironic theme under Wilder Mk2.
 
I don’t blame wilder for this set of bastards disgusting attitude he’s come in to manage.

They downed tools for the previous manager not so easy to just turn it on again.

The last time he inherited a spineless bunch of players was Adkins mob and he soon worked out who was up for a fight and who wasn’t. Hoping he is able to use that skill set around this time to save us from relegation.

Some of them are his
The attitude and lack of fight last season were his
The culture then, and now, is his.

Wilders past is absolutely wrapped up in the present.
 
Sacking him was a bizarre decision, appointing Selles was equally bizarre, acquiring a rash of players days before sacking Selles underlined how nonsensical the recruitment over the summer had been.
None of that was Wilder's fault.
Whether it was Wilder or anyone else brought in they would be facing a huge challenge to keep the team in the league.
I don't love or hate Wilder but the owners bear a lot of responsibility for a likely return to the third division.

The people who have assembled this squad bear a lot of the responsibility. Wilder is certainly included in that.
