da betobet: With Chris Wilder receiving the LMA Manager of the Year award Sheffield United’s board must use this as a message to stick with the 51-year-old, even if the club struggle in the Premier League next season.
The Blades boss became the first manager outside the top flight to win the award since Eddie Howe in 2015, despite the fact that United didn’t even win the Championship.
Wilder’s success
All of Sheffield United’s recent success has to be attributed to Wilder. He took over the club when they were a mid-table side in League One and he completely transformed the squad into Championship promotion winners.
Despite not winning the league this season, he deserved the Manager of the Year award over Daniel Farke for the size of job he has done.
Next season in the Premier League wouldn’t be possible without their gaffer, and the hierarchy at Bramall Lane have to keep that in mind even if the Blades flop in the top flight.
Could be disastrous
If the Yorkshire club don’t start out well next season and sack Wilder then it could have disastrous consequences in years to come.
The Blades boss hasn’t only brought incredible tactics to the Lane he has raised the game of every single player in the squad and brought the whole club together. If he is removed from his post in the first few months of the season, United will be left with a team full of players who struggled in League One just a few years ago.
Even the players that have been signed in the Championship have had their game raised by Wilder. David McGoldrick may have won the club’s Player of the Year Award, but just 12 months ago he was being released by Ipswich.
There may not be another manager in the world who could get these types of performance out of this group of players. If the Yorkshire club are to be relegated next season they must keep the same man in charge to give themselves the best chance of coming back up.
