He is one of 4 players imo who should not be anywhere near a starting line up alongside Gooch, Thompson and Laurent.
These players should either be competing to get on our bench, or be playing somewhere else.
We will always struggle with these as regulars.
The odd good game doesn't cut it and leaves us consistently vulnerable to results like today. Nothing to do with 'hating'.

I couldn’t give a sh1t about attitude. I just want good players. What is it with Stoke fans and desire and attitude? He’s absolutely garbage. “Absolutely Garbage” Can you explain how you’ve come to that conclusion which differs from several managers who have consistently put his name on the starting 11 team sheet about 100 times during his SCFC career which has been disrupted by extensive periods of injury. Is he part of team “who” have defensive duties when the opposition have the ball, are fellow players fully carrying out allocated responsibilities? I’m just interested in trying to understand your quite specific opinion. Several managers… who nearly got us relegated to League One. He’s is absolutely terrible and an ever present in the worst Stoke side in two decades.

The haters are out in force tonight. There is nothing wrong with Wilmot as a Championship defender and I would say he's better than some who played for us in the Premier. We can't even find a back up Central defender so why would we want to put ourselves in the situation of needing a first choice who would cost money which we need to spend on at least one good striker and a couple of full backs Totally agree, I don’t think he is that bad at all. The whole team needs slaughtering for that second half because they lost shape, started panicking and basically let Watford bully them. Even prime Beckenbauer couldn’t have held that lot together….Hull can F off.

Someone has to be absolute garbage so currently it must be Wilmot.

Obviously you’ve got far more knowledge and insight than professionally qualified managers and coaches most of whom have significant playing careers behind them. I’ll leave it at that.

No offence mate, but what on earth are you on about? They have to pick him because the recruitment team are failing to bring in better window after window. Also, the managers you are referring to, as myself and Bayern have pointed out, have been failures too. If anyone wants to see Stoke City in the top half of this league, never mind play offs, and thinks we’ll achieve that with Ben Wilmot anywhere near the starting 11, then I’d suggest they were barking mad to be honest.

I'd snap their hands off for 4m, get Helik from Huddersfield as his replacement and a younger CB who can develop and learn his trade.

So you are advocating we go for a 28 year old Central Defender who has on his CV in England two relegations in four years with Barnsley and Huddersfield. 🙄. Let’s imagine the club took your advice that would mean we would be left with 2 x 28 year old CB’s + 1x31 year old CB and I assume “younger CB who can develop and learn his trade“ you mean under 20’s Dixon and Anderson. You believe that strategy would be progressive in the Championship?

Hence why the coward has gone back to his comfort blanket. He did a good job at Stoke. His first year was excellent and we suffered from crippling injuries to our best players which I believe stopped us from getting into the play offs during the lockdown season. That’s not cowardly, it’s simply running out of players and not having the resources to replace them due to the FFP situation we were in at the time.

He totally shat himself. We went from a free flowing side to a team that sat deep. It was poor. He was backed well and ultimately like every manager we’ve had since relegation failed.

Wrong again, you’re completely rewriting history to suit a narrative. We lost both first choice goalkeepers to long term injuries at the same time and had to recall that hopeless lad Bursik in an emergency. We then lost Campbell when he was flying and simply couldn’t replace his output. The nature of those injuries had fuck all to do with bad coaching, it was rank bad luck and this nonsense claim that he was “backed well” is pure and simple horseshit.
