They're then far too stubborn to admit they got it wrong. It is absolutely 100% this. That or they just don't understand football. 4 Link to post Share on other sites

Well they were wrong in the first place, his form may have a dipped a little at times, but he's never ever been a bad player at any point in his career. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
GrimsbyBoro 1,968 Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 With regards to Tav I think he was largely ineffectual when played out wide or further up the pitch. His final ball and decision making has been terrible at times. I don’t think he should have ever been playing that far up. He was never a bad player but playing their didn’t suit his strengths. In CM I think he has his best position. His reading of the game in covering and the work he puts in is tremendous. Still needs to do work in the final third but you can see season in season there are improvements. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Smogzilla 7,484 Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 Looking at Wilders pre seasons with Sheff UTD, they never appeared to go away to any kind of training camp or anything. A couple of away fixtures here or there but most games seemed to be in Sheffield. In their promotion season, their opponent’s were an eclectic mix. Stocksbridge Park Steels, Maritimo, Bradford, Mansfield, INTER MILAN and Doncaster. 😳 1 1 Link to post Share on other sites

smogsterking the Inspirati 2,490 Posted May 22, 2022 Share Posted May 22, 2022 It would be nice if we got a high profile team for a home friendly. Imagine getting a team like Inter although we will probably settle for Hansa Rostock and avenge the match fixed pre season game a fair few years ago. Link to post Share on other sites

Wouldn't call it interesting personally (i.e. not sure what there is to draw from it), think it just reinforces the club are happy they moved on from him. I can't remember the last time they did a season long goals montage so I could be wrong but it feels like this alone is a little out of the ordinary and perhaps only put together because Wilder is at the helm. I think the club is just continuing to want to push Wilder and positivity around him, that's how they approached the Season Card campaign too. It's not necessarily wanting to reflect on the season just gone as a whole but more to give an idea of what's to come. Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe SmogDane and BoroDane can pull some strings and get Copenhagen or Brondby over here? 😉 1 Link to post Share on other sites
