DNA Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Former Watford & Fulham manager Jokanovic in, 3 year deal, first overseas manager at the club. All the best to him trying to get a tune out of Brewster, Jack O’Connell will be back from injury on the positive side, as no doubt we’ll have to lose a few, including Sander Berge most likely.

Dave Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Seems like a pretty good appointment on face value. He takes charge of a good squad at this level. I'd be very surprised not to see them at the very minimum in the playoffs next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny Posted May 27, 2021 Share Posted May 27, 2021 Well this doesn't make good reading for next season in the Championship, this is an extremely experienced Championship team and Brewster has already proven he can score and play for fun at this level. Yeah they'll lose a few, but they never really spent big so that money should still be there to invest in the areas they've had to sell in. With them, a cash rich Fulham and even a yoyo club like West Brom who again will be cash rich as they didn't spend too heavily it will be tough for other sides to come up. Really hope we do a job against Swansea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've earned a shot at the Prem after being close so many years and I'd like to think that their style would keep them up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that this is a great appointment considering the talent they already have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas Posted May 28, 2021 Share Posted May 28, 2021 Two out of two promotions so he know's what he's doing. Plays good Football too. Both his Watford and Fulham sides press high and were possession based teams. His Fulham team were very good when they finally clicked and made a late run to the playoffs. What is slightly different is, he managed Watford and Fulham who were both 'cosmopolitan' sides made up of a high mix of foreigners and not as much of a British core. Sheffield United will be different as it's a heavy British mix with fewer foreign players and they won't be afraid to work hard so it feels like it should be a good fit.

DNA Posted November 25, 2021 Author Share Posted November 25, 2021 We had our moment in the sun, back to the grim realities of Sheff Utd Hopefully our pauper of an owner fucks off soon, apparently the Newcastle regulation situation will effect money he can put in the club too now, not that he was doing that anyway.

Rick Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 4.5 year deal to Heckingbottom?? Bit extreme isn’t it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 Oh dear. Stuart McCall as assistant manager too, didn't realise he was still getting gigs? I'd be extremely disappointed as a Blades fan hoping to bounce back quickly. I was half taking the piss with Warnock but I think I'd rather have a tilt with him for the romantic factor than this.

The long contract is because he’s on peanuts basically. Only way of getting him to accept, as at least he’ll get a big-ish pay off when he gets the sack due to Brewster not being an actual footballer. Our Poundland owner has 4 other clubs he’s dealing with, so no wonder he just wants a yes man in place now like Heckingbottom, no complaining about the lack of transfers or shite at his disposal. We’re basically done now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My first thought was promoting the U23 Coach sends out the message they'll want to progress players from within. Other than Sander Berge I don't see who you could raise funds from in January which is a bit worrying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure aside from being someone who won’t complain they’ve got an eye on his expertise in the u23’s to blood through some players to cut costs. “They don't want to have Slav in place any longer as he wanted more players and crucially, whisper this these days at Bramall Lane, he wanted ‘wingers’; that's like saying "Thatcher really was a great PM, wasn't she, she sorted out the Unions" at the Orgreave Miners Welfare Club” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 @DNAI don't mean to jinx it but the early signs look positive. Theyve gone back to a system which suits the players and theyve began playing Conor Hourihane who I couldn't understand was out of favour with Jokanovic based on his Swansea form.

Yea, definitely playing with a lot more freedom, more direct. Not getting too carried away mind as there is a lot of work to do, we’re shocking at defending set pieces and in general we’re a bit Jekylll & Hyde as a side.

Danny Posted December 10, 2021 Share Posted December 10, 2021 Judging from Brewsters time at Swansea you have a player who can put grow this league quite quickly. I was surprised he wasn’t quite up there this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
