I read is it as read too. When you read read you have to read it in context as one read can be read as the other read.you can read read and think it's read .When it's really read.Then again you could alternatively read read as read.
Best not just assume its read when you've read its best to read it then read it as read.
I read it read it was read then it became clear

I meant red. 😲
 



I think Wilder and Sheff Utd are both heartily welcome in the Premier League by just about everyone, fans, pundits (most not all);), players. managers. It’s a refreshing change to see a team and manager with no prima donnas, playing good expansive football, no arrogance, no play-acting, being humble and respectful in defeat and victory.

Wilder has the respect of most, if not all, for what he’s achieved and how he’s achieved it. He comes over really well and he’s a fantastic ambassador for the club. He is self-effacing and modest and has a great sense of humour.

I’m sure you’ve got a point Woody about him possibly creating envy amongst some. But he conducts himself in such a way that only the most horrible jealous types would deny him his moment in the sun.

And that’s how they probably see it. A flash in the pan that won’t prevail. After all, he’s broken the mould hasn’t he?

He’s relied on what are perceived as lower division players and values like work ethic and team spirit to propel the club to great heights in the toughest division in the world. I’m sure some will expect this little “experiment” to fail at some point because it’s not normal for this level of football.

But to believe that is to underestimate the quality of the man and the players and staff he’s assembled around him.

I’d say there are far more admirers than critics. But his success will put others under the microscope for achieving less with more.

Long may it last!


Good post Ceb but also misses the point I'm afraid.

The o.p. is about the P.L. managers and how Wilder shows most of them up for what they are: charlottans who are lazy and spend massive budgets on players they have hardly seen. P.R men, front men, not that he is knowledgeable about English football. They do their thing anywhere and everywhere in Europe/ the World.

They struggle to communicate in English and therefore sign plenty of poor value foreign players, in other words create a bigger comfort zone. Just imagine Pellagrini addressing our team on match day,

What is it about the o.p. some cannot understand?
 
"He also speaks football and team talks in intelligible English".

I'm confused. Does he speak English or Football? And can you get the latter on DuoLingo?

Speaks English football, you know he's a 'football man' with a thorough experience in the domestic game and he talks in English, which so many P.L.managers struggle with.

Hope that helps.

Sorry but I’ve read your OP and your attempts at explaining it and it still doesn’t make any sense.

Normally you make decent posts/threads. This isn’t one of them.

Probably why you posted it..
 
Which bit do you not comprehend? Its written in simple language. Not bizarre at all, just another perspective/ angle.

That I comprehend your post is precisely why I find it bizarre. No failure of comprehension here.

What exactly are you suggesting? That foreign premier league managers are literally unwelcoming? I thought Wilder himself spoke about having a beer with Klopp?

Pundits and other fans are queuing up to talk about us as a welcome success story this season. That runs contrary to your thread title (directly), and more generally the thrust of your message.

It is Christmas Eve though I guess, we've all had a beer (or two, three etc.) so I'd prefer to end my response with a 'Merry Christmas fellow Blade' and leave it at that.

All the best to you and yours.

If turning heads in the highest levels of corporate Pl is unwelcome, then keep them heads, excuse my French / German / Spanish, fucking turning !!

It’s a new world boys and girls.

All aboard 😀.

He is a manager of men and he can judge players who don"t need to cost £50m and much more.

He also speaks football and team talks in intelligible English and does not play to the armchair audience ( not too much anyway), no drama-queen , no pretence.

Simple S2 at it's best.

The multi-million pound foreign managers will not welcome him.

He bothers them. Sean Dyche toook it so far, our man plays sophisticated football.

Congratulations to Plymouthblade, @AntarcticMonkey and @Finlay who have I.Q's on or above the median. Thanks for the 'likes' Blades.

Have a great festive season @,Akinbyi.

In a nutshell, simply that certain foreign managers are being shown up by Wilder and that his type of management discomforts them abd so it should. Klopp is not one of those.

That is what the o.p. was intended to say, no more no less.

The title was worded to attract attention and some didn't read further than that.
 
Not sure that any other manager or DoF (as they seem to be the ones responsible for buying the players more and more nowadays) really have CW on their radar.

Don't recall Prem managers making Wenger unwelcome when he came and started being successful using cheap young French players?

The suggestion is not a question of anybody making our man unwelcome face to face. It's in their cosy, leather, contemporary offices they will be squirming in their seats and sitting less comfortably because our man is achieving 3 times more on a third of the budget. They will not welcome the erosion of the foreign manager gravy train.

That's the point F.G.S.
 
Wilder is a one off. Built his reputation through every level of English football, won everywhere he's been and ended up managing his home town club. I don't see what other managers have to be afraid of? There aren't a queue of Wilders looking to take their jobs

Much more likely to be squirming due to their own form and results rather than other managers faring better. I doubt the Norwich manager has a pinned wax doll of Wilder because he’s English and doing better. Or any other clubs manager.

Posts 2 & 8 sum it up. As you said, “for attention” (and little more) Fanciful at best, the IQ comments show it’s about your ego.

Please don't make an assumtpion that I don't understand what your pointless post was about. you only make yourself look stupid.

You've moaned about people not responding in a courteous manner, yet when I tried you've responded similarly. Very disappointing, and duly noted.

The misconception you have regards your own intelligence is staggering and laughable.

I would wish you Merry Christmas and Happy New Year but that could be misconstrued as me giving a fuck.

Not sure I can quite agree with this one. There are certainly some mercenary managers in the PL but there are also some (British and foreign) managers who seem serious, hard-working, and conscientious: Klopp, Guardiola, Rodgers, Dyche, Howe, Potter, and others. I think Wilder is in a class of his own but I can imagine him connecting with them and think they’re probably clever enough to respect the job he’s doing.

No need for the negativity in this thread, today of all days. Merry Christmas, Woody and all the rest of you Blades.
