What a player

 

[S40BLADE]

We could do with a few more of him

 

[Danny Blade]

A similar signing to Leon Clarke in that we've gotten so much out of him than I imagined when he first joined us.

 

[CaptainMorgans]

Probably my favourite Wilder signing. His standards & effort levels rarely dip and he's the type of player I'm not used to this club having. A joy to watch. POTY by a mile this season.

 

[DronnieBlade]

Fleck & Dids rank as the 2 best free transfers Utd have ever signed.

Would take £30m-£50m to adequately replace the pair of em.

UTB.

 

[bongleblade]

what a player, the commitment he has shown in his career, after the hurdles he has overcome with injuries... he could have easily retired at 30 or gone to America and took a nice packet, instead he has been a servant to our football club and a model pro, up there with Sharp as one of my favourite Blades players of all time tbh

 

[Stretch]

Quality player, absolute silk on his day.

Him and Bogle provide some well needed flair to this squad.

 

[SwindonBladeJnr]

My favourite Wilder signing and my favourite current player. Fantastic mix of ability and work rate/effort. I think he should score more based on his ability but he is this wonderful but rare combination of creative striker and hard working midfielder. So I let him off .

His spell with us will transform how he will be remembered as a player; we've been really good for each other!

How good was Bogle yesterday? Not even like it was a one off either. He's a serious talent.

 

[cc1]

Hes been an absolute joy to watch since he arrived. I think to class him as one of our best free signings belittles how good he's been, he's one of our best signings full stop, up there with Deane et al.
Love watching him play football, bloody glad it's with us.
Thanks Didsy and thanks CW

 

[Carlton Blade]

My second favourite United player after Deane. Absolute legend. As cool as the other side of the pillow. Super hero. Don. Didzy

 

[Bennyand the Blades]

Nice player , but it makes you smile when you think at his age people were saying Billy Sharp would be too old for the premiership........

 

[Swannyblade]

My favourite player out of the current squad and up there with my all time top Blades. I actually purr when Didzy turns it on, a joy to watch.

 

[alcoblade]

What a great player he’s been for us.

Congratulations Didzy.

 

[Eza Blade]

He had me hook line and sinker with the lob against Derby

 

[Berkshire Blade]

I remember people kicking off as we went for him on trial instead of signing Waghorn for millions as per rumours at the time

 

[Houston_Blade]

Love McGoldrick, proper footballer. I still think he’ll do a good job next year. When him and Sharp pack up we’ll be fucked if some of the younger lads don’t stop being shit.

 

[Gimli]

Such a lovely player to watch. Absolutely will go down as a Blades legend.

The other incredible thing about this is we’ve got 100 games out of Didzy in two and a half seasons- at his age and with his injury record that’s unbelievable.

 

[B.Lade]

UTB.

Let's be honest, it'll take that to replace Didzy alone!

 

[coolasanidiot]

Best player in the squad by some way.

Very rarely looses it.

Presses better than any other.

Sublime skills and touch.

In the last 50 years we have seen precious few with his guile- Currie/ Woodward/ Sabella/ Duffy and Didsy - these are the players that others can only dream of- I'm sooo glad he came here,

Thanks Didsy you make moments of pure joy for us- please give us 1 more year at this level..

 

[lazyfecklessblade]

One of my favourite players for us in my tie watching. One of many Wilder players with a story, realizing their potential after a career that never truly took off.

 

[Cheesebored]

Wanker. Missed a penalty against Wednesday that would've opened the floodgates.

 

[Bergen Blade]

Agree with the sentiments above, he's been brilliant for us.

Is it allowed to mention one little criticism of him? He does not get many assists. For a deep lying/roaming forward or even number 10 you'd expect him to play more through balls and set up more goals. He's got 1 assist this season, 2 last and 4 in the promotion season.



He opted to shoot, which I think we're all reluctant to criticise. But it's not too often we see a penetrating through ball in such situations.

 

[The Crab]

I remember people kicking off as we went for him on trial instead of signing Waghorn for millions as per rumours at the time

I thought at the time Waghorm was the better option but I was wrong.

Didzy is so much better, love the guy. Not just committed, a player of genuine class and skill.

 

[The Crab]

Love McGoldrick, proper footballer. I still think he’ll do a good job next year. When him and Sharp pack up we’ll be fucked if some of the younger lads don’t stop being shit.

If I was Wilder, I'd take the younger lads to one side, point to Sharp and Didzy and say this....

Do you wanna be remembered for the birds, money, cars? Or do you want to be remembered and loved long after you're done. Because see those two? Follow them because that's how its fucking done.

 

[Geordie Blade]

I remember people kicking off as we went for him on trial instead of signing Waghorn for millions as per rumours at the time

If anyone can, hand on heart, say that they were glad we went with McGoldrick instead of Waghorn then I’ll be bowled over. Well done, CW, AK and, most of all, DMcG.

What do we know? Hahaa

 

[Roygbiv]

Might be my favorite ever player. I love watching him play.

What a position Bogle is in Bergs, and not for the first time either. As you say, if he faints to shoot and lays the ball off for Bogle, who is the best of the options you give, he’s got it put on a plate for him, something you’d expect Didzy to do too.

Still, Didzy, what a player!

 

[coaxingstar71]

As I said on another thread yesterday....

I love Didzy, I'd crawl bollock naked over broken glass just to watch him caress the ball from the air and drop his shoulder in the same movement, but it's like he's got wonky legs when it's time to shoot... "just pass it into the net Dave, pass it"....

I completely forgive his scoring prowess simply because we play better as a team with him in it.
