Callum Wilson a doubt for season opener due to minor back surgery (Various)

Must be a loan to permanent next season striker deal we can do, can’t rely on this guy.

[OCK]

"Start the season as you mean to go on", Callum took the words to heart. 

[Tiresias]

Sigh was kinda thinking was time this guy was sold while there still was some value here. Great servant but clearly struggles to stay fit. Concerned a bit that Howe is slightly overly loyal to him too. Even if he stays, and with injury seems likely, a promising young striker should be high on list of priorities

This lad has got his work cut out

Top work from Eddie "boundaries" Howe to conspire with Wilson to feign injury and keep him at club. Phil Mitchell in shambles.

Welcome back Jose Enrique.

He may as well retire here as we're never getting a fee for him.

Wilson's been a doubt for every game for years and will remain a doubt for every game the rest of his career. For a long time its been just a bonus when's he's been available to me.

Good to see some fans remain toxic, slagging off a good player who has put a shift in for the club.
 

People saying sell sell - to who? Wilson is at best now a 20 game a season player, more if he’s only used off the bench. How much do people think that’s actually worth? He’s not young. 

 

There comes a point where you have to a) acknowledge he’s not going to play that much and set realistic expectations b) acknowledge he’s not going to bring a fee in and then reach the conclusion it’s better to take the 10 goals he’ll score next season than a nominal fee. Wilson is a crock who bangs them in when fit.

 

The club need another striker, but that’s quite separate

Is it toxic to want a liability out of your squad as you can’t rely on them or are you just having a bad day?

Not seen one slagging him off because of quality or shift.
