Kid Icarus Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Just needs a telling off for those two moments imo. Shouldn't need to but obviously does. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heron Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Will give him the benefit of the doubt. He's played little football for a sustained period now. Feel a bit sorry for Osula though - he'd have been a better fit today. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RS Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Looked like he was running in slow motion. Age has caught up with him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexf Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 In fairness, how could he not be rusty as hell, it's been so long since he played competitively regularly. Can forgive him a little bit for not getting his head up better. The bigger issue is, even if he gets a run of games I think even last year it was becoming clear injuries have taken too much from him to be effective at this level. Will be useful as an extra poacher option if we are chasing a goal but not much more, he won't have the athleticism anymore. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 I know he’s had ages out. But my word is he finished at this level. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats the point, he’s played so little football you can’t judge him at all. Don’t think we should give him a contract mind Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 4 hours ago, El Prontonise said: More bothered about wrestling with CBs most of the time now. Completely finished. I was watching in the pub with a load of neutrals. Basically predicted this when he came on. I said he’d get in a load of physical battles with CB’s for no reason. Lo and behold that’s exactly what he did. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Edgar Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 It is very frustrating because Osula would've caused some serious trouble for Wolves with those chances Wilson had. Wilson was probably preferred for his experience, Howe trusting he would have better decision making. And well, that didn't turn out great. So now we are left with either trying to play the old, injury-ridden striker back into form or giving the minutes to the young inexperienced guy.

Ridman Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 (edited) Such a greedy play towards the end there. Also similar one earlier where he could have squared it to Tonali. Edited February 23 by Ridman Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Not so sure. Eddie, as much as I’d back his judgment on players he’s worked with for so long, has a real blind spot where Wilson is concerned. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KaKa Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 Considering how much pressure we were under with only a goal in it, those plays from Wilson were completely unacceptable. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eddie, as much as I’d back his judgment on players he’s worked with for so long, has a real blind spot where Wilson is concerned. There’s a few he has blind spots for. Wilson needs a run of 5-10 games before he finds any sort of form and when was the last time he played more than 10 consecutive games? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In hindsight it probably went towards costing us the cup final against Man U. They were a very ordinary side having a poor season, but we went in there with Wilson who did nothing on the day. I think it's fair to say Isak might have caused them a few more headaches. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually think Osula makes the pass on at least one of those tbh. Wilson was looking out for number 1 not once but twice! Was incredibly disappointing.

James Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 This has always been Wilson. The team have just progressed and he’s stood still / got less fit. i think he’d be a good fit for Arsenal who need 2-3 strikers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminded me of another 4-3 game where Ginola did something similar. What slim chance he had under Dalglish was gone after that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortunate to have a midfielder supporting the run too otherwise that’s straight to Forest to counter, which he had no clue about because his head was down the whole time.

healthyaddiction Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Wilson's averaging a goal every 81 minutes compared to Isak's goal ever 114 minutes. Personally I think Isak need's dropping for this elite goalscorer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
