CONFIRMED Selles Sacked - He’s Gone.

[Rodley]

Go through their previous comments, they’re definitely pining for their first love.

I think you’re probably more focused on CW than they are in all honesty.

 

[Flumps]

This is what Selles is up against. Any post from the club and people are jumping in two-footed on Selles. What happened to getting behind the players and manager?

These media profiles are run by mostly faceless attention starved men who were bullied at school and never had the balls to fight back. Social media profiles allows them to say things without repercussions of a potentially slap in the face. As long as Selles and the players have a spine then these sorts of things wont or shouldn't bother them.

However I did see some post shared a day or two ago by some EFL profile thing that said Sheffield United have put together the best run of the season, unbeaten in 8 days due to the international break. Something to that effect, found it funny anyway.

I fucking despere! I really do... what fucking chance have we got with donuts like this!

Misspells despair as "despere", then has the audacity to call another poster a "donut". Maybe obtain some basic literacy skills, before you start implying other people are stupid.

And lay off Italiano Blade - he's a sound bloke, who loves United, and is entitled to express his opinion on here like everyone else, without you attempting to insult him.

me id want chris basham to be in the frame WHY hes BLADE hes a kop legend bash is best they would never boo him hes a lovely man hes what were all about ,we would win a fans favorite has gaffer would work even if hes never done it before he will be a sucess he wins

No no no no and no.

We need to get away from the bladey blade “nobody else understands the club” crap. We don’t need Billy, Bash or anyone else. At least not until they’ve shown they can do it somewhere else.

We need a clear headed, tactically astute, experienced manager / coach / whatever the fuck they are called these days.

We need a recruitment strategy that embraces the old and the new. AI has its place, but as a support tool. There’s still no substitute for sending a scout to have a look. Stats tell a story but intuition writes the book.

We need a new way of thinking. It’s not about forgetting our past, I’ve loved those times, but we need to evolve.

The game has moved on. Compare it to retail, other clubs have evolved, gone online so to speak. We are Woolworths, a fondly remembered ghost from the past.

Selles might not be the answer. But Bash or Billy? Let’s go the whole hog and throw Wayne Allison or Bob Booker in there too.

We need different, we need better.

If you do what you always did, you’ll get what you always got

 

[UTB Blade]

It’s going to be like this until they get their cwisseh back. It’s pathetic.

It's going to be like this until we get a manager competent enough to actually get us some points. Y'know, like every single manager, of every single one of the other 71 clubs in the EFL have managed to do, other than ours.

As for pathetic, the only thing more pathetic than your childish "cwisseh" nonsense, is your obsession with both deriding one of our most successful managers ever, and sneering at anyone who has the temerity to appreciate what he achieved for this club.

Wilder lost 3 and drew one of his first 4 games.

I am not saying Selles is going to come good (Not even saying we should keep him) but isn't there a bit of irony that we talk about Wilder and what he "would have done" with this team, but we talk about Selles as if he has zero chance to turn it around?

New players and a new system and style. It will take time to click.

I’d have some faith but the new system he’s trying to embed is flawed before he’s even started. Just leaving one defensive midfielder back is completely unbalanced.

What worries me most about selles is the stuff I actually liked v bristol city has completely gone ever since.

The fans were behind Wilder (at least at that point). Right now, the view of fans is so split that Selles doesn't really stand a chance unless he wins the vast majority of games moving forward. I wish him well, but have lost confidence and feel we need a manager with a much higher pedigree.

You’ve got a short memory, there were loads calling for wilder out after those first few games.

Dozens saying it was a job a level beyond him and he was never going to adapt and get it right.

Most of them are probably the vocal ones now who cannot see past anyone but wilder in charge.

Correct.

Wilders first 4 games we had 1pt.
We won our first game in game 5 and didn't lose again until game 20.

I'll take that now please.

And all it took was a formation change.

Wonder if Selles sees that and is prepared to change?

If he's not he'll probably lose the highest profile job he'll have for a long time.

I hope we’ll see a formation change from Friday with 3 CB’s and wing backs.

 

[Upton_Blade]

I hope so too.

With the players available, and the deadline signings we made, it's sort of crying out for a back 3 IMHO.

You could play 343, 3421 or 3412 or switch seamlessly in game.

Honestly though I think he'll stick with a back 4. If that changes slightly to a 4231 then so be it. We probably have the players now to make that work but if he persists with 433 then he's toast.

 

[Toronto Blade]

He won’t get 92 points. He can’t hold a clipboard on the touchline without his hand shaking, regrettable and sad though it is to see. He’s practically cooked and the oven will ping after Ipswich.

Ipswich are not burning up the league their attack is firing blanks. They haven't won a game either.Two floundering teams that have to win a game

 

[redandwhitewizard]

It's ironic that some people didn't want Wilder back because they wanted an end to the 3 at the back system and now with a new manager some want to revert to the 3 at the back.
Personally I don't mind what system we play as long as it works for us and makes use of players playing in their best positions.

Utter tosh. I've not seen a single person state they didn't/don't want Wilder back due to 3 at the back.

For starters he didn't play that for the entirety of last season.

 

[Superblades]

I think he will change formation on Friday and I think we will beat Ipswich and then follow that up with a win against Charlton.

I admire your confidence. I think we'll lose myself but maybe a draw.

I've seen plenty so I guess that makes your post utter tosh. Cheers.

3 CB's sounds good to me - but who would have been the 3 CB's before the recent transfer window?

 

[Booker4]

or a win

I very much doubt it.
