How many appearances did he make in 2024? Waste of money and a squad place.


Yes basically and nobody is genuinely thinking he’s going to stay fit for long if he does come back. However he could make a huge difference in a tilt at the top four if he can at least come

on for Isak or play with Isak in tight games as he has a knack of scoring poacher goals and gives us a different look. I just hope he can get something resembling fitness once he’s back to play a part in champions league qualification before he leaves at the end of the season.

I remember the days when each summer many predicted he'd "get 20 goals this season". He never did. 

 

Now the excitement is that he'll get fit for long enough to score 2 or 3 vital goals at the end of the season.

He could score 0 goals. Just be fit enough so we can protect Isak in the last 20 minutes of games. Although I’m sure Eddie will start easing Osula into the fold a bit more.

Any update on his return?

 

Howe said “very early February” yesterday, so assume he’ll be in the squad for Fulham or at the latest Arsenal.

We could do with him staying fit for the rest of the season as unlikely as that is. Give him the last 30 minutes of matches. 

Hopefully Barnes is only a couple of weeks away too.

The options of Barnes and Wilson makes our bench so much stronger. Even a half match fit Wilson knows how to nick a goal as he’s a poacher.

Seems like he’s now targeting Brum rather than Arsenal based on Howe’s presser. Sigh.

 

I'd imagine Howe would be looking to play Isak for most of the Arsenal game anyway. Would be good if Wilson could play the first hour of the Brum game, and then sub on Osula or Isak depending upon the game situation.
