I've got a feeling Wilder will be offered a job at a bigger club than Sheffield United at some point. Was some guy on a podcast recently, think he was an Oxford fan and said they couldnt stand him as manager. He couldn't get a goal out of the squad which is opposite of his Sheff United squad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Rev Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 Yet he got Oxford promoted. He got Northampton promoted too. He's got Sheffield United promoted twice. Dude knows what he's doing. I know he's a Sheffield boy and a Blades fan but if he has a couple of good seasons in the Premier League then I can see a club with some genuine spending power making a move.

Still his record in last 5 years is extraordinary across all the leagues even if he does have the look of a bloke you'd find propping up the bar at the Aston Social.

Demitri_C Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 (edited) Hope they do stay up they are a good club. I like wilder too. Hopefully Smith can turn it around as we haven't started well at all. Edited September 2, 2019 by Demitri_C Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zab6359 Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 (edited) Watching SHU v LIV, and Liverpool are obviously having loads of possession but SU look so bloody organised and look good on the counter. Really rate CW as a manager like the way they set up with 3 across the back that formation would really suit us I reckon. Can't see anything but a Liverpool win but SU are really holding there own right now. Edited September 28, 2019 by zab6359 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulC Posted September 29, 2019 Share Posted September 29, 2019 Not sure what he said in his post match interview will help the goalkeepers confidence much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well he had Dean Henderson all of last season and he was happy to come back. I like Wilder. Proper old school way of doing things but Sheffield United quietly play some really good football as they showed yesterday. Think there's been a bit of snobbery directed to their squad so far this season from much of premier league. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeyp102 Posted September 30, 2019 Share Posted September 30, 2019 (edited) I see Sheffield Utd, doing like Blackpool in their first season in prem. Start the season really well as teams totally underestimate them and don’t give them respect. Then from New year onwards, everyone will have worked them out and give them a little more respect. Utd then start losing regularly and fall down the league Edited September 30, 2019 by mikeyp102 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think they went down with 39 points in the end which was highest total in last decade to get relegated with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One game is away though. With regards to Sheffield, remember they were flying high in the championship around Xmas the year wolves and Cardiff went up and collapsed. Let's hope for the same for our sake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenjiOgiwara Posted October 2, 2019 Share Posted October 2, 2019 I've seen plenty of teams get promoted, spend little money, rely on the guys who got them up, have a great start with superb work ethic and heart, but it never lasts and almost always ends in a complete collapse later on in the season. I would be astounded if they avoided relegation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes they get injuries and it starts going tits up so they get in some mercenary in January on a ton of money who doesn't really care but is on way more than the 'old boys' which breeds resentment.
