Hope he gets in a couple of games and this gives us a tiny glimpse of what next season could be. Before he injures himself again and stays out 4-5 months.

Conjo Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 Hope to see him getting a fair bit of time in our last two games against Arsenal and Burnley. Man City I assume is too early(?) if he had his first training session day before Liverpool after being out since December. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are going to need a new striker next season regardless, but it will be a good indicator of how effective we could look with a Wilson-type striker in there for the few remaining games. Don't know about you, but I can't wait to see how Bruno operates with that type of forward in front of him as opposed to a Wood or Joelinton. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or maybe under Howe over time the bloke won't spend most weeks without training, conditioning and then haivng to spend 90 minutes chasing shadows in hope of a sniff of a chance to actually strike the ball at goal.

Tisd09 Posted May 5, 2022 Share Posted May 5, 2022 Be class if he gets some solid game time between now and the end of the season. Still think he can be a big asset for us even as a back up if we do invest in a new forward in the Summer! A new striker Wilson (if stays fit) Wood For our level that would be decent forward options!

I'd agree with that sentiment apart from the fact Howe was his manager untill 2020. edited.....ps I've no doubt Eddie, with a new signing AND Wood available, would be just the bloke to nurse Wilson through a couple more seasons.

Yeah we really just need an alternative to Wilson to share the main strike duties, you wouldn't want to get rid of him. What would be the point? At 30 he's not going to fetch big money, and he's still top class when he's fit. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Combo of Eddie and teams coaching, different system, & not being the sole load bearer as a goal threat in the next couple seasons should do wonders for him. I don't think he will ever play more than 20-25 games a season again, but we should be in a position after Summer where he doesn't have to.

Also depends on if Wilson/the alternative would be happy with that arrangement, which they likely wouldn’t be unless they are a young up and comer that wouldn’t be expecting to play week in week out anyway.

Flip Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 Did more in 10minutes than Wood has done his whole time at this club basically. He's mobile and can actually do something with the ball. Shame he's made out of glass. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted May 8, 2022 Share Posted May 8, 2022 He looked bright. Difficult to know what the future looks like for him here but assuming he stays it'll be a huge bonus having him above Wood in the pecking order. Despite missing a couple of chances that the fitter version probably would've buried, he demonstrated in that cameo what we've missed having Wood in the team instead. We instantly looked more dynamic going forward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
