Callum Wilson

[Weezertron]

His showing today should be a wake up call for Howe, if the rumours were right that they’re considering an extension.

Started alright for 5 - 10 mins but then faded badly. Not surprising really as it's only his 2nd start this season they said  and he's only been getting the odd 15 mins off the bench mostly. 

 

But it's been clear ever since last season that the body is done and there isn't a champions league chasing premier quality player left in there. 

 

Praying that we can get Isak available for next week. If we can't then I don't think Wilson starting is the best alternative.

I think his time is done.

Let’s not risk playing him and him getting injured in the last game, and us stuck with him

He is out of contract after the game.

There’s a massive gulf between ‘past his best’ and unable to meaningfully contribute.

 

He gets away with murder on here, frankly - though less so today admittedly. When was the last time our number 9 went an entire season without scoring a league goal? Has it ever happened? Either way it’s an absolute running pisstake.

He’s been shite for years, with the odd goal 

[Sibierski]

If he was making himself a nuisance for the CBs but shit with everything else, you can just about justify starting him for Everton game. But his body is so broken, he seemingly doesn’t even do that any more, instead some half-arse backing in where he flops over.

 

Osula is clearly a winger only in Howes view right now, so if Isak wasn’t fit, it would have to be Gordon up top. Still not great, but vastly better.

 

Just confirms how a 2nd striker is key, or a RW who can play up front and is fit and reliable themselves.

There can be only one: Bryan!

I don’t think Mbuemo is a good solution to the striker issue, although a nice options to have. Can’t expect him to start every game at RW then also switch to CF when Isak needs a rest. Bloke will be burned out in weeks.
