Callum Wilson set to be out for around 8 weeks with new hamstring injury (Howe)


Recommended Posts

It is simply poor planning to only carry two senior strikers in the squad and to have on of those strikers be Callum Wilson. This a team that was meant to compete on four fronts this season and play more than 50 matches. I am a fan of Wilson as a player, but he has proven that his fitness is unreliable over the course of several seasons at two clubs. The situation cannot be surprising.

The plan was for Gordon to be 3rd choice which I can understand

 

It's just been compounded with the injuries we've had elsewhere

Name the 3rd striker for City, Arsenal, Villa, Man U, Spurs

Funny how some players, rather than having a particular weakness in a knee or whatever, will just pick up injuries absolutely everywhere. Kieron Dyer probably the most obvious example, Woodgate as well. Wilson definitely in that bracket.

He's done am amazing job of souring the amount of goals he's scored by getting injured.

 

Part of me is pleased because now there can be no doubt that he shouldn't be part of our long term plans.

 

Bye Calum, thanks.

Not his fault but he's a waste of a squad place. 

 

8 goals, 7 in the league. 5th in the PL in goals/90. Not even going to mention last season.

 

If he's a waste of a squad place then that applies to more than half our squad.

Honestly Gordon looked brighter up there. It's just a shame that Gordon has to move positions.

 

Wilson looked really poor in his last couple of games.

He's contracted until the end of next season so there's no getting rid in the summer, like. Would be lunacy for anyone to pay any money for him. 

Shhhh man, fucking hell.
