For Those Who Want A New Manager - Realistic Suggestions For A Manager Better Than Wilder

[robbiez666]

Gary O'Neil?

Good shout.

I'd also quite like Russell Martin or Liam Rosenior. There are quite a lot of decent managers out there.

 

[MiserableBlader]

You start with Sean Dyche and wonder about others if he is not interested.
You start with the KNOWLEDGE Wilder is shite.
Boring negative Pepshit Cocoa inverted wingers pass any way but forwards shite.
You start with the hope that more good players will stay with a proven manager than a repeated failure.
As for that Cooper fellow.
I'd sooner have Tommy Cooper.
The bloke is demented.
Views on games ludicrous.
Without sack at Forest they would have come down with us not challenged for Champions League.
Rob Page was selected by Basset years ago.
BETTER judge of young players than Wilder (who isn't) but I have no idea how he played re Wales.
I thought Saunders would be years ago. Nowhere to be seen now.
BUT WHY LOOK PAST DYCHE.
Plays with 4-4-2 with width and crosses and I can live with that despite preferring 3-5-2.
We would not be in this position bar the ludicrous Wednesdayite clamour to get Hecky out.
Let alone the stupid decision to get slav in NOT EDDIE HOWE as some of us said after wilder walked out last time.

 

[MiserableBlader]

Gary O'Neil?

NO
Wolves v United last season did exactly as Wilder
Sat back
He was LUCKY that day
And in an important point McAtee and Brewster missed clear chance AS THEY DID NOT APPEAR FIT
As is a common theme with Wilder STILL despite him last year blaming Hecky pre season!

I don't want a manager. I want a head coach. Ideally one that isn't a seen before "knows the English game" retread

Don’t want ‘negative shite’ but do want Dyche…

 

[JayGreen17]

Liam Rossenior if we are wanting to build something that’s exciting, and the start of a whole new era for the Blades.

No we don't, and United would have to release him from his Liverpool doorman job

Speak to Southampton fans, they're expecting a struggle there’s a few of them very unexcited about the will still appointment

 

[Aston max]

Would you say that Leicester, Southampton and Ipswich have this 21st century setup you’re after?

Afternoon chris

I get why people would like quite a few of these managers, but would any of them be any better than Wilder?

First off, Sean Dyche would be a better manager than Wilder, his career proves that, but it would take a lot to get him to come down to the championship.

But as for some of the others.

Liam Rosenior: good manager who personally I think has a high ceiling, but that Hull side he had should have been in the playoffs at a minimum, and they finished 7th, similar to Carrick's performance at Middlesbrough this season.

Steve Cooper: might upset quite a few people on here, but I don't think Cooper's any better than Wilder, look at their championship/PL careers, they both have the same achievements, I know Cooper did quite a bit with the England youth, but youth international football is quite different from senior league football.

Liam Manning: I like him but the pressure of getting 2nd year parachute Sheffield United back into the PL next season might be a bit too much for him right now, Wilder, Slav and Hecky (just to name a few) all had quite a bit of experience behind them when they came here, Manning doesn't really have that yet.

Blessin: I don't know enough about him so I can't comment.

20/21 - No wins in 17. Left when relegation was almost already confirmed. Messy exit. Multiple digs at the fans through the season
21/22 - Took over at Boro in November. Did ok but publicly flirted with the Burnley job.
22/23 - Fired 11 games into the season, winning 2 in 11. Took over at Watford for the last 7 games. Nobody is sure why.
23/24 - Publicly 'healed the rift' with the United owner and positioned himself to take over from Heckingbottom in a move that people would have been furious about if it had been the other way round. Unable to halt an inevitable relegation, a disorganised mess remained a disorganized mess
24/25 - Deserves credit for signing some good players in the summer but was working with a new enviable wage budget. Cooper and Burrows look like great value. Never developed a style of play beyond defensive solidity and relying on Hamer and to a lesser extent JRS to create 1v1. Given huge resources in January and arguably made the team worse. Only Choudhury can be classed as a realpositive and he ended up covering a different position. Refusedto budge tactically tillauto promotion was gone, returned to being timid, box defending, hope for a counter in the play off final. Again, multiple digs at the fans through the season plus expensive issues around player (and his own) discipline.

For everything that was so good from 16-20, do the ladt 5 seasons not offer a more realistic view of what to expect going forward?

Did Wilder identify and sign the good players last summer?
What part did Des Taylor play in our recruitment?

Gary O'Neil - young, hungry manager that's been treated somewhat harshly by his previous two employers so has a point to prove. Also proven at PL level.

He'd definitely be my no. 1 pick.

What we need to bare in mind is if we go in a totally different direction the likelihood is it will take time to bare fruit. Look what happened with Slav, we brought him in and he had a completely different ethos, as fans we want instant success and currently we are in a position where we need instant success. Fail again this season and the squad needs to be trimmed further to compensate for declining parachute payments and you gradually regress as a club back to a mid table champ side, see Stoke City as reference.

I agree he was harshly sacked at Bournemouth.

But I wouldn’t say he’s any more proven than Wilder at that level.

He was taking Wolves down, let’s be fair.

I think it just went a bit stale for him at Wolves. There always seems to be an impending crisis financially and behind the scenes feels very sterile. I got the feeling he had lost some of all of the dressing room to but Wolves are known to have a few challenging personalities in that changing room.

I can't say for sure yet, but we've always had a more close-knit and family feel to it which some managers thrive in. Wilder just seems deflated and some of his remarks last season were just not on and some were just down right strange. Just feels damaged goods compared to Gary O'Neil, who is young with a point to prove
