Class manager. Was set up to fail with our recruitment.
They knew berge wasn’t going to sign and allowed ndiaya to string us along … should have got it all done before Portugal
Weighed down by the Wilder debris.
What an astonishing man, us Blades loved you at the lane. The Board didn’t help we need a good owner. Us Blades love ya Paul you did a great job 😊
Nice words about Luton, Thank you and much respect
I would take Heckingbottom at Sunderland 100% would love to see us appoint Hecky as our new head coach. He did a fantastic job in my opinion for Sheffield United and was sold down the river by Prince Abdullah last but overall Paul did very well to get Sheffield United back into the premier league and played good football in the championship
Hecky is a class act. He got shafted by the board.
As a Forest fan I'd agree. He was a great manager.
I'd rather have the club financially viable than spend stupid money we are where we are thank you hecky some great memories
Love the guy, lead us with honestly dignity and respect even after he was stitched up. I hope all the fans that wanted him out and heralded Wilders return are happy with the Arsenal embarrasment, he's achieved nothing other than the record breaking string of 0-5 defeats and arrogantly claiming the players do care and all the pundits who claim otherwise dont know football
Top man and good manager given the resources at his disposal. He’ll bounce back and get success at a suitable level. Quality always wins over quantity 😉
As a Forest fan, I feel for PH. I know there is some bitterness between Sheffield and Forest but I genuinely liked PH. Was stitched up massively by the ownership
Think this is one of the first times as a United fan that I’m agreeing with a forest dan. Our owner needs to sell cause he cannot afford to run the club
He was but he's also failed spectacularly at hibs and at Leeds. Did well with us and Barnsley. He'll never be good enough for any premier league club imo
@@sammybeck4855 Hibs and Leeds were toxic in the changing room and at boardroom.....he never stood a chance at either.
Mind your own business
from what it looks like from the outside, the owner has plenty of money but doesn't wish to spend all of it on Sheffield United.
ph gaining promotion with a shoestring budget, was one of our clubs biggest ever achievements
You have to be kidding. That squad should have been closer to 100 points.
Blades Fan. It's typical Sheffield United ... never had much in the way of ambition if any ambition at all, I've followed United from a very young age from the First Division ( the now Premier League ) right down to the old Fourth Division and back to the First Division come Premiere. For all the exciting promotions won down the years relegations soon follow and it's back to Square One. We've had our chances but have always missed our chance through the lack of ambition at the top. Big change is needed to take the club forwards not backwards. ⚔️
So very true 👍⚔️
Its a shame owners willing to spend money and not risk the club dont grow on trees
A change that should include the manager. He’s been found out.
Spoke well, classy bloke
Did a great job under the circumstances. Not much he could do recruitment wise, nor the timeframe or lack thereof where players leaving and the start of the season were concerned. Shame he couldn't find that lift, and build a team spirit. Sometimes it does come down to simple things like players getting fed up of the same voice or ideas which they don't believe in.
Paul did brilliantly for us for two seasons but why were we playing aimless long balls up to a midget up front which was either Traore or Archer (mostly archer) for the entire first four months of this season when anyone could see it wasn't working from the opening game against Palace? The players we've got are poor but the tactics were archaic and wouldn't work in league two. Our fans just blaming the board for everything somehow can't see that keeping two players who wanted to leave last summer would've been pointless as it only ends one way if you don't let them go. It's embarrassing that people think Berge's a massive loss when he was shite for us in the premier league as part of a better team before, was up and down in the championship and has done nothing unsurprisingly to me at Burnley because he's a championship plodder at best who thinks he's better than what he actually is. Pundits raving about him saying he was a top player clearly haven't watched him turn up when he feels like it for three and a bit seasons like I have who goes regularly home and away. On his day he was unplayable but that was nowhere near enough to justify the fee we massively overspent on him. Can only run when he's darting with the ball into the box and he's a passenger when we didn't have the ball as he contributes nothing defensively. Can't jump or tackle either despite being a unit of a man and it was embarrassing how often he got knocked off the ball by players half his size. We should've sold him in January last season for a massive fee instead of keeping him as Doyle and McAtee got us up last season in midfield carrying him. Anytime we played a midfield with big fast units Berge was lost until the loanees came in. Players ran off him all the time and he's very lazy. Plenty of players last season were more consistent and worked a lot harder but the Norwegian carthorse would've made all the difference for us this season apparently. There's no guarantee that Ndiaye would've been able to make the step up to the premier league on a consistent basis either.
He was thrown under the bus before the season started budget was laughable someone wants to ask the prince where’s all the cash gone Premier league parachute payments. And wilder pulling trees up 🤣
@@fishermansid8861Wilder's not good enough either. Board will never kick us on but neither wilder or hecky would do anything at any other premier club even if the owners are better. They're championship level managers which is fine
@@fishermansid8861I never wanted wilder back and think we need a complete rebuild which should've happened when we went down last time around before Hecky came back. Need a complete overhaul of the coaching staff and the players
Did you hear what he said about the quality of players we were up against and what that meant for our squad and team having to sit deep and defend due to not having the quality at our disposal to match teams? That meant we were under pressure and trying to nick a goal on the counter...hence the long balls. It wasnt an error on PH's part...just the lack of quality in the squad as a whole......going into a gunfight with a water pistol. If you want to blame someone look no further than the Clown Prince.
@@cg7025But just sitting back stringing two or three passes together then giving it back to the opposition and then just retreating deeper and deeper will never work either. Best football we've played this season under Hecky before he left was the second half against Wolves where we came out and were pressing higher up the pitch and we completely suffocated a good side that couldn't cope with us that half. Same with that little spell at villa where subs came on and we started taking players on and whipping crosses in it was brilliant after we'd been shite the rest of the game just clinging on against villa for dear life doing nothing. Played well against west ham and on Sunday by getting on the front foot. This idea that we have to play a certain way is nonsense as the few occasions we've been brave on the ball have been our best performances of the season by a mile. Board are mostly to blame aswell as the players but Hecky would do nothing at any other premier league club imo. Still did very well for us overall but I don't think he's a premier league level manager.
Get Hecky's work ethic aligned with an aspirational club and he'll have them punching above their weight quickly!
Legend Paul. Thanks for all you did for us. It's a tale of two halves. Love having Wilder back but hate the fact you've gone. All the best for your future.UTB⚔️⚔️
Could you do one of these with Steve Cooper please. Would love to know his view on Forest and the points deduction they face.
No one's interested
Not many supporters of Sheffield United who would disagree with anything Paul said. We all wanted him to succeed and appreciate what he did last season, we needed to change the manager to try and lift the players and give them belief that things could change, but the failure this season is down to recruitment and finances. With Iliman and Berge, considering how low the points totals are at the bottom, we would’ve had a genuine chance. For us, Iliman represented 10+ extra points, he was that important to us. Our Grealish when Villa we’re struggling, Toney for Brentford etc. and we sold him on the cheap. It hasn’t helped his career moving abroad and playing out of position either. Hamer coming in is still a sensible move from the club long term instead of Berge, so there’s some sense there, but we were never going to replace Iliman. Add to that the loss of Sharp as captain, Egan to injury, Basham in the way he was injured, Tommy Doyle going to Wolves, Brewster continuing to have setbacks, Jebbison not playing a game all season, Lowe, RND, Baldock and McBurnie missing the majority of our games, and we’ve had no chance. Everything that could’ve gone wrong has gone wrong; all the above fails to mention the profound loss of Maddy Cusack after the Tottenham loss and just before the Newcastle thumping at home, the feel around the club has been horrendous since that event. Wilder will get things in order in the summer and rebuild the squad, but it may be a case of building for the 2025/26 season rather than bouncing straight back.
His a really good coach he was screwed by the board
If you listen to paul heckingbottom talk and then listen to chris wilder ..it isn't too difficult to tell which one is the class act ....one is very arrogant the other is not
I hope these pundits who keep banging on about how bad the Blades are listen to some of this. How can a team in financial trouble, selling their best players etc ever have a hope. This is as much down to the financial realities of football as to anything else. The game is broken - and unless you're a glory hunting fan, you're screwed.
I'd have him back next season. Pragmatic and disciplined.
I'd have Wilder any time over Hecky. My opinion.
We should never have sacked him . Ten bob BS Prince hurry up & sell up I hope Luton stay up & Villa win league
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 joker
He said “precedent”, not “president”. Clever chap.
I knew when they sold ndiaye they were going to be in trouble
Why?hes proven hes not a top flight player. Been dreadful in france
That spurs game......but the newcastle and burnley games....
Hecky was by no means perfect, but he was used and cast aside by a chairman who doesn't want to invest. The season has been a shambles.
Great Manager Thanks For all you did for us Paul, Hopefully one day you'll come back..UTMB
Could talk the talk but not walk the walk
I rate PH highly
Once a red always a red
There’s talk he may end up at Sunderland. I’d have him here in a shot, the trouble is would he accept the conditions the two clowns who run us impose. Probably not.
Top man paul brilliantbcoach did wonders with the young boys in the academy bringing em through to first team standards
Hecky was thrown under the bus by the owner Prince Abdullahlahlah.
Glad Wilder doing worse, he thinks he is better than what he is. He has had enough games to turn things around. This time he can’t use no fans in stadium
United not the quality to turn things around simple.
He does have a better points record in fairness, but if you think there was any chance of turning things around, you haven’t really followed what’s been going on at Sheffield United. He’s been brought in to help the summer rebuild (with the hope that he gets it right like he did in League One after completely overhauling our squad). Guardiola, Mourinho, Klopp etc. wouldn’t have turned it around this season.
Everyone knows that until we get a new owner, with more than toilet paper to wipe his ass with, we will never be an established premier league side.
...and will struggle in the champ too. We had a great manager in Hecky to rebuild with......now we are stuck with a clueless deserter who puts clowns in the net.
@@cg7025Wilder should never have come back imo
yeah hes a class act Paul, and he was a Sheffield Wednesday player, he could have done what Wilders done, which is nothing.
Football in the premier league isn’t play in the air. That’s why you lose!
Wilder Out!
Wilder is a joke !
