Victory at WBA is essential. Another defeat must see the board make a decision. It really is that simple. Either they stick with Wilder and accept what will happen but trust in the longer term; or decide we need to replace him if we are to stay up. I don't know which way they'll go but if it's the latter then Rafa Benitez should be the target. Wasting his life in China or back in the prem.
Thing is it is obvious that good old robust effort and heart only gets you so far in the Prem. It was amazing last season but given the shocking recruitment this pre season was never going to work again. Wilders seeming lack of ability to change anything around given the ample time international breaks affords really concerns me and the obvious lack of anything by the players has to go down to him as well. The annoying thing is all we needed to do was upgrade in certain areas but Wilder spunked fortunes for no reason. A loan keeper, a proven decent pacy striker and some midfield creativity. Yes a replacement for JOC. Two of those could have been loans not stupid fees.
I've accepted we are going down after today.
Would love more than anyone could know to be wrong.
The board must act. Back him in January or replace him. Doing neither is unacceptable.
