Wilder

[Shoes_On]

Well done for going back to basics. He's still cutting his teeth in the Championship, but he's showing that he's able to learn from his mistakes.

 

[tincan]

Wilder was the MoM for me - Realised integrating 4 new players so quickly into a good team is too much, so changed to maintain a promotion challenge.

 

[1066blade]

Should have taken Clarke off and injected some pace, we could have blown the game in the last 10 minutes.

 

[FTPE]

Sharp would have been my 5th choice today as a starting striker.
What the fuck do I know?....

 

[Ldn_Rd_Blades]

Sharp and Duffy had both been looking leggy before they were dropped. Both have come back looking good.

Probably not a coincidence.

You're the 1st person I've seen admit that. Props to you sir

That lovely goal is a reminder of his quality.

Time for a rest for Clarke now. We have Wilson and the Don. Let him sit the next 2 out and come back stronger for it, a la Billy Boy.

 

[SteveBlade]

At 5 ft 8 he won more than Leon did in the air today. Very good performance, and the technique for the first was sheer quality.

His performances of late have been under par, but today he showed us what we all know he's capable of.

 

[Carlton Blade]

Billy was the catalyst for the great 5 minute spell before the second goal. Kept busting a gut to chase things down and offer an option to the man on the ball.

That in turn let Fleck, Duffy and Evans play forward passes and generally get on the front foot. When we do that we always look dangerous - we just need that movement

 

[Snowman]

At least he didn't go Clever Trevor again and stuck to the basics. Although I'm unsure about the Leonard sub. Beginning to get worried about the lack of Lenny product.

He's only made cameo appearance s,, give him a bit of slack

Would love to. I'm one of his biggest fans, want him to succeed, but I call it as I see it.

 

[IdLiketoRogerMoore]

An early goal always makes you look like a tactical genius but thought he had a better game today.

Still think he had a blind spot re: Clarke but other than that can't pick a fault!

It would have been a surprise if he didn't start. His old club, interest from USA to massage his ego, point to prove to Wilder and Wilson looking out of his depth.

Played Billy

Clarke
Donaldson
Wilson
???

Think Clarke is a bit more Savvy but getting tired because he's probably had his best ever season so far. Donaldson is coming on though. I'd consider 45 minutes each as a matter of course

Would have thought one of his self-confessed "biggest fans" would be slightly more patient...

Nah. Quick rush to judgment and repent at leisure. Honestly, it's not a final position, just that I feel he should have more than shown so far. Hopefully he will improve to what I expect.

 

[Broomhall Blade]

Clarke
Donaldson
Wilson
Evans


I'll get my coat.

 

[Igor]

I thought his starting line up reflected the upcoming game at Leicester on Friday, at least to give them a run out together, except Lee Evans. Shame Flecky won’t play now.

 

[The Hobott]

... Wilson looking out of his depth.

Think he looks good on the ball - just unfit

Exactly ,I've been his biggest critic but he did the work of two men today,think Leon needs a rest
Even though he's had plenty of rest

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Sharp needs to stay in now, he is the best finisher we have without doubt. He's been unlucky not to have played more when you read his stats this season, still CW has his reasons just don't get them sometimes. He would start every week for 90% of Championship clubs.

 

[Aston max]

Give the lad time I think he would have benefited coming in August , we have seen with Evans who is up with the pace of the championship settle in quickly and I think we all been surprised with the pace and quality of a lot of the teams ,

 

[Bladezz]

Would love to. I'm one of his biggest fans, want him to succeed, but I call it as I see it.

Which is lucky as we have hardly seen him yet. He’s at a new team / New division playing against the lights of Villa / Wolves these are not the games to judge players on.

 

[breeny]

Probably not a coincidence.

Out for too long though?

 

[Liverpool blade]

I think all the new lads need to be given more time to get fit. We need to remember that they're making the step up from the pub league and won't be at their best straight away. Hopefully over the next few weeks they'll prove they can make the step. In wilder we trust utb

Skilll levels higher Yes for sure but fitness levels should be max no matter which league we play in

Maybe you are right. Just realised he barely had 20 minutes yesterday. It just seemed like a lot longer!
