Brewster Couldn’t hit Barn Door

Hi Stegosaurus here

Our worst ever signing. He is absolute gash. At least McBarndoor is a good physical presence. Brewster brings nothing to the table.
 
I feel the kid, I really do.
He had the two misses in front of our fans in the 2nd half but at least they were close, the slash from his left foot in the first looked like he'd never kicked a ball before.
It has to be a confidence thing now, because when he came in his finishing was the only thing he was apparently good at.

Lad has had awful injuries. Potentially career ending if he has reoccurrences in next 1-2 years and all you fuckwits can do is abuse him? Shame on you. Maybe post encouragement for him to stay fit, injury free and start scoring.

He's not getting abuse. Five goals in 77 appearances ! He's getting honest opinion s.

I'd love him to start scoring. That's what he was brought in for.
He's yet to do it.
 
Brewster has shown he needs regularly game time to improve. Problem is the last time he was coming good he played aboout 6 games straight and started looking like the striker we wanted then got injured.

I wouldnt say he was the worst signing our GK has got that title sorted.
 
his all round play was good last night, nice touches, nice movement, took up good positions. Slashed at one first half, hit a lovely free kick marginally over, hit post ( a bit unlucky imo) and missed a great opening. He played for an hour, most hes played in a long time.

Whilst he might be the worst pound for pound signing we've made, the lad keeps coming back for more. There's a player in him. Personally think he'll bag 15-20 this season if he stays fit and gets some proper game time

My brother is a Wednesday season ticket holder (we're now both in our 50's so talk honestly about each others teams) and he often tells me that when ever he sees Brewster play on TV he looks a quality player. He actually says....he expects him to come good sooner or later and predicts as long as he avoids injury he'll have a successful season this year.

I kind of agree.....when ever I watch him he does have a look of quality about him. His touch, control, link play and awareness is pretty good.
My main reservation (and it's the same with Osula too). Brewster will have a decent game, not score but be quite unlucky.
He'll almost score a difficult chance, hit the woodwork or the goalie will pull off a great save against him.
Keep thinking he just needs some luck.....but it's the same the next match....and you know what they say.
Really good players always seem to be lucky where as players not so good tend to be unlucky.

So for me the jury is still out and he's still on course to be (based on price) the worse signing in our history.
Last year I predicted he'll do a Ched Evans.....no not end up in prison ha ha....I mean in the final 6 months of his contract (from Dec24 to May25) he'll suddenly look a world beater ripping it up in the Championship and there'll be a clamour from Blades to renew his contract and pay him what ever he wants. This would be so typical Sheff Utd. We've paid out a record transfer fee and seen nothing, everyone thinks "get rid", then just as his contract is about to finish he then starts playing like MBappe.

He's been a terrible signing to date but he does have some excuses because of injuries he's hardly had a run of games
and I give him credit for his positive/ support the team attitude, seems a decent likeable guy too.

He needs a loan to L1 or L2 where he will play every game. He's not going to be given the time for us next season to get up to speed after so many injuries since he signed.

He cost 7 times more than the GK. Though the GK is (unbelievably it really is possible) of an even lower standard, I think Brewster is miles ahead in the "worst ever" stakes.

I agree, but look at threads on him for the past 4 seasons - could copy and paste this comment from them. Love to be wrong but it’s not happening for the poor lad
 
Thing we all know is that his game time will be limited by injuries, it’s inevitable at this point, so he’s got to take opportunities like last night when they come, three great chances that came his way and he was unable to take any of them.

I can’t see him being much more than an impact player from the bench so he really has to take those chances when they come along.

Agreed - Personally I really like him and have always been eager for him to do well. But currently he is by far our "pound for pound" worst ever signing

It's very sad, as he seems a nice lad, but he's our record signing, presumably one of our highest ever wage earners and he's managed 4 league goals in 4 seasons and none at all in the 2 Premier league seasons.

Pound for pound, there can't be any argument, he's the most disastrous signing in the clubs history.

With the current forward choices we have at the moment i would say he will probably get as much time as he can handle
 
And so

And so say..... most of us👍
 
If he didn't come from Liverpool, and didn't cost an absolute fortune, would we still believe in him I wonder?

Who still believes in him? I think the vast majority (including me) have written him off. :(

I dont want to, but we have to now.
He might cut it lower down the leagues, or even just somewhere else.
But we can't wait, or take up a spot for him.
 
A change of shape may suit him as he's not going to be central whilst Moore is fit

Honest opinion is fine, but some of the posts are unpleasant and unhelpful.
Having said that I do think that this season is his last chance to show what he can do.

His touch is average, control average at best, link play poor and awareness appalling and as for goals then ‘ not classified’
He’s unlikely to play a full 90 mins and there is no chance of him playing more than 3 consecutive games….he is by far the worst Blades signing in history ….and still people say ‘ there’s a player in there’ ….

I agree, they are unpleasant and unhelpful. But they are also true.

I will add I'd be delighted for him to come good. But I very much doubt that will happen.
