Nobody is 'desperate to see him fail' In fact everyone is desperate to see him score 30 goals this season. He's just got to show he's good enough to start as Wilder clearly doesn't think he is

Unfortunately you're wrong. We have a number of followers who can't get past the price tag, probably the same folks who were weeping buckets when James Beattie had new wheels fitted to his already expensive car.

McBurnie got shitloads of abuse, Berge did, most of our expensive signings do. Small club mentality from many in our fanbase, in fact we're inundated with them.
 

Hopefully Wilder is finding the cheatcode to balance the Injuries and playing time just like he did with Mousett.

Recall Hecky saying he wanted him full fit and able to play 90 mins everyweek?

He did ok, that's all but just never looks like scoring.
I'd bring on Campbell before him

Agree, but our creative players don't really tee up our strikers. They all cut in looking to get a shot off themselves.

Brewster can finish. I'm confident if we do get it to him in the right areas he'll deliver.
Watched the training video from midweek and he looks sharp in front of goal. A few of the lads have said how good a finisher Brewster is, shoots hard & early.

And either straight at the keeper, wide or over the bar

Maybe we should for one game change our name to Sheffield United England U21s. Hopefully then he will start scoring.

He just needs 1 goal to get him going.

Don't think people want him to fail....think it's more about them losing patience and giving up
however I feel the vast majority of Blades are still desperate to see him do well and start scoring.

Think it's not accurate to compare O'Hare with Brewster.
O'Hare has had several seasons impressing at this level.....as recently as last season.....so we know O'Hare should be a big asset
Where as Brewster has had just 1 season impressing at this level....and that was 5 years ago.

There is a valid argument regards whether Brewster is even Championship standard or maybe league 1 is where he needs to be.
Also when his contract runs out at the end of the season should we offer him a contract and how much?

I'm in the camp where you can see that Brewster does look to have quality and seems to be unlucky regards his decision making
however when someone is so close to scoring but constantly unlucky.....then at some point you can't continue blaming bad luck.

I think you’ve possibly missed my point on the O’hare thing.

I am not making a direct comparison to any specific player; rather, I am presenting a hypothetical situation in which Brewster has joined the club this season with no prior experience. If we assess him solely based on his performances this season, I believe we would all be eager to see him given the opportunity to start a game, considering the promising appearances he has made recently.

I agree with everything else you’ve said.

But surely paying £20 million for a player you expect them to play accordingly, not pay that much in the hope that one day they'll come good. City and Chelsea can afford to take the gamble and pay for potential, lower Prem and upper Champ clubs paying that much really need them to be performing to their price tag straightaway. Not in Brewster's case still be a complete waste of space four years later.
 
Brewster has after 2 major injuries has taken the medicals staffs information on board and structured his rehabilitation ,he's now looking more confident in his body and you can see in the training vids and the minutes the lad is getting .I'm pretty sure he will start against Swansea. And good luck to him .

He doesn't choose the price tag though, does he? If the club sees fit to shell that kind of money out on him, especially a club like ours who are historically tight, then you have to assume the recruitment team have seen something that makes him worth it. As to £20 million, what can you do apart from gamble nowadays when average players are costing double that and more?

He didn't choose to get injured, fair play that his head's not gone and the fact that he's still as chirpy as he is, is testament to his character so rather than heap more shit on him, maybe get behind him and if he stays injury free he'll come good.

You clearly don’t go on shoutbox during games. People moan the minute he enters the pitch or makes one bad pass. Far more than any other player.

I can't believe anybody would want to watch United whilst connected to Shoutbox. Its clearly a medium for opinionated, frustrated, would be managers, to express views, genuine supporters don’t value one iota.
 
Moore isn’t great. But just because he’s not great doesn’t stop the fact that Brewster is plainly awful. I’m not sure at which level this guy would score 15+ goals (I really don’t see him even doing that in L1) but it’s not this one, he’s so out of his depth.

It’s the biggest failing of the club to not bolster our attack but whilst this is all we have - Moore starts if he’s fit

McBurnie and Berge (as far more obvious case) were examples of our fans just being a bit blind to actually decent players. Norwood was cheap, oozed quality, essentially got us to that next step yet constantly received grief. Brewster is not the same example. It’s nothing to do with price tag and wages at this point, it probably was the first 2/3 years, but we’re at the point where the lad can’t stop snatching at chances when he gets the opportunity and looks dreadfully below his peers. He’s simply not showing he’s at all very good. It’s disappointing for everyone, not least for himself after such promise in his early career.

Only some of our fans could pin this as an issue amongst the fan base rather than recognising he just isn’t very good.
 
So in summary,.he's still wank but it's down to negative fans and him not having 17 seasons minimum to get up to speed.

Right ?

Fucking hell fans, come on let's use them magic rays to heal him and fuel him with positive glowing energy.

Really good start to the season for him despite not scoring, he's really had a terrible time with injuries, but his link-up play has been better than Moore's, and that's what Moore was (partially) supposed to bring to this team. Nice little pass to Campbell, who also looked lively after coming on. His goal will come, and I think he may get 7 or 8 this season if he continues to improve his fitness (if doing a lot of work there).

Seems many Blades like to use his price tag as an excuse to not support him. He's still at the club, and everyone should be supporting him. I agree with the assessment that you can tell a lot about a Blade by how they speak about Brewster.

Yes 7 or 8 games would be better than the last three seasons.

Is he a bell end because his opinion on a player is different to yours?
If so does that mean anyone who doesn't share your opinion is a bell end too?

If so feel free to put me on ignore too.

I also don't rate Brewster. I didn't rate him even before he had injury set backs.
What is it, five goals in as many seasons? Sorry but he doesn't cut it for me.

I'd be delighted to be proved wrong. But I can't ever see him coming up to expectations in a Blades shirt.

Careful, the Brewster Brigade can be a bit tetchy.

Agree with that.

However think the reasons why Berge, McBurnie and Norwood got stick was more about frustration.

They were capable of being brilliant so would rightly receive the plaudits . However the next game all those 3 were capable of being crap so it was more about the inconsistency of Berge and McBurnie, regards an aging Norwood it was more about the opposition highlighting his weaknesses so he looked poor. However all 3 could produce a highlights reel where they looked top quality.

This is different to Brewster because he is consistent, consistently 6 out of 10 but never looks like scoring or assisting. I’d say Brewsters strength is he’s a nice lad and proven to be popular in the dressing room. He’s still young so could resurrect his career but apart from 1 season at Swansea no one really knows whether he’s championship, league 1 or even league 2 standard.
 

Brewster scored 10 goals in 20 games for Swansea in the Championship - a very good performance across almost half a season for a young player.

Fitness permitting - and that's the big question - that doesn't seem like the record of a player who's destined to end up kicking around L1 and L2.
