It seems like Stoke fans always need one, I'm sure Smallbone was before Xmas but attention seems to have switched to Wilmot now. Gouranga.  |

Well, he was shit today and has been shit a lot this season. He probably has given away more points than he's won us, has one good game and a series of shocking ones. If he plays well then we can praise him. He plays shit and so we say it how it is |

No, Wilmot is crap, don't continually put in sub standard performances and people won't be complaining.
It's not about being a whipping boy, pretty much everyone in the side is being criticised and rightfully so, they've been awful all season.

See the goal and you'd understand, he fucked up and gave them the chance that never happens if he does his job properly. He does it way too often and unsurprisingly it's annoying people. |

I saw the goal and I've seen the replays. The ball tip-toes 30 yards through the rest of our defence an beats a keeper who should have got down to it and saved it but was out of position. Bonham or Bursik would have both saved that but somehow it is solely Wilmots fault. Gouranga. |

I don’t think he’s that bad. It just feels like he’s been messed around a lot.
At no point in the season does it feel like there’s been a settled back 4/5

Players who have been shit beng called out for being shit.

Actually in other threads people rightfully pointed out a series of errors which are very typical of our team. New keeper was relatively crap today and not a good sign, but he has barely played in 6 months or more. Willmott had been consistently poor in a very very poor defence this year. He's been best at wing back which says it all really and he's crap at wing back. It was his fault for the goal, but the keeper was crap too. Overall every player was crap today |

I personally haven't had a whipping boy for a long long time. They have all been equally wank since relegation.
I think Danny Collins was my last whipping boy.

Re-watching the Luton goal, Wilmot gets bullied off the ball in the DCM position by Adebayor, Ruddock runs through onto the loose ball then Sterling who was covering Wilmots position makes no effort to put in a tackle, Ruddock half hits his shot and Jagielka turns his back to the ball with Sarkic is way out of position and looks pitifully slow getting across to save the shot. Yet the goal is 100% Wilmots fault? Gouranga. |

I'm not writing him off but when the ball moves that slowly and still goes in you've got to question the keepers positioning. |

What about the Stevenage goal last week where he just had to kick a ball away to prevent a goal and managed to fall over his own feet and nutmeg himself in the process? What about the Preston game where he manages to jump underneath the ball from their goal kick, sending their striker through on goal? What about the Burnley game where the ball is trickling over the line and he’s only two yards away but doesn’t even attempt to stop it? He gets called out because he makes catastrophic errors almost on a weekly basis and for a centre half is an absolute fanny. |

He’s poor defensively - he has been since we signed him and he was at Watford |

Wilmot badly puts himself out of position which leaves the space in behind him, he stays in position that space isn't there for the player to go into and have the shot. The shot was as in the corner as you can get, Bonham ain't saving shit 😂 But forget today's goal, he makes a big cock up nearly every week, he couldn't even make a simple clearance in the last cup game. |

Wilmot is one of the very few players worth keeping.
Working his bollox off in a back 3 covering for a geriatric and a sloth.

Firstly, I think Wilmott has a great attitude and I don’t doubt that he is trying his best. Unfortunately, he’s almost like an over enthusiastic kid who just isn’t good enough. He makes far too many mistakes on a regular basis and as a result we have conceded from a large percentage of his errors. He’s not big enough or strong enough & is regularly bullied such as today & West Brom just two examples. He certainly isn’t the only one making mistakes or just not good enough but I’m afraid that his frequent errors result in us conceding far too often. I’m hoping & praying that Tuanzebe is fit for next week & stays fit along with Connor Taylor, Ben Pearson & Nick Powell. If they’re all available at the same time (big ask I know!) then we look a totally different animal. Here’s hoping 🤞🤞🤞

Ive just seen the goal and totally not surprised Wilmot is getting flak.
It was awful, stupid, brainless defending and it's just become a regular occurrence with him. Everyone makes mistakes but it is far too often. It's like having Liam Delap as a CB. He just runs into people.
If he wants to avoid the flak, it's pretty simple really. Learn how to defend, at least some of the time!

No point in singling out players in a team that under performs as regularly as this one.
Having said that Wilmot’s general level of performance this season just emphasises the craziness of our transfer window dealings with regard the defence.

It’s going to be Smallbone or Wilmot unless one of the new boys can take the Crown and jump in the stocks in the next few weeks.
