I do think what we've done is remarkable
but a lot of our players have a considerably better pedigree than Sheff U.
Leitner, Vrancic and Klose have good Bundesliga experience.
Stiepi was picked for Dortmund by Klopp, Krul has loads of Prem experience and has played at World Cups.
Even Pukki already 70 caps for Finland and was considered good enough - even if it didn't work out - by Schalke (37 games) and Sevilla.
Trybull has played for Werder Bremen.
Tettey has bags of Prem and international experience.
The true genius of all this has been picking those players up for peanuts and getting the best out of them, blended in with home-grown youngsters.
An incredible achievement, but I think people in football would have taken into account that five of Sheff's regular starters were with Wilder in League One.
