NUFCDoog Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 Slightly concerning now like how many chances he needs to finally score a goal, should have had 3 today. Like it's all good today and jt didn't really matter, but there'll be games where he'll only get once chance, and on current form it's not a given he takes it like it was a year or so ago. Still love him and not trying to be negative, but he does need to be more clinical or it's going to end up costing us at some point Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still love him and not trying to be negative, but he does need to be more clinical or it's going to end up costing us at some point I’ve not even looked at stats, but off memory this season he’s been pretty clinical? Fair enough he fluffed a couple today, but he’s taken most chances well this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'll dee for me. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

CPL Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 (edited) A certain Haaland has missed a few sitters recently also. Would Pep drop him? As long as he is getting in positions to score them and stays fit, he'll hit 15+ easy. Edited September 25, 2023 by CPL Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menace Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 A goal every 65 minutes isn't clinical? Crikey. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NE27 Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 Aye Wilson is in the best of the rest group in PL, and honest to god there are few I'd swap him for right now. Glad he got a goal today after a couple of fluffed chances, and it's good he has a goal in mind to keep him driven and focused. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wiseman Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 There's not many strikers I'd trust more then Wilson to put the ball in the back of the net, just because he didn't have a blinder today, doesn't take away from how great he is typically in front of goal.

Stottie Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 I love Wilson. He missed a couple but was denied a penalty for the trip on Gordon. Wilson has a bit of a reputation for selfishness, but there is no way we score eight and Alan Shearer only gets one of them. We all know what happened the last time.

Kid Icarus Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 Was very surprised to see that Wilson's goals per minute ratio is better than Ferdinand's like. I know Wilson's massively boosted his recently, but I thought the Bruce years and Ferdinand's brilliant form for us would have kept him clear.

Sean Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 Wilson's most elite attribute is his head. His ability to miss multiple chances and still be on the lookout for the next opportunity, still having the confidence to take that next chance with a clear head and without the misses affecting him. His confidence is what got him here, and it's what keeps him scoring. God knows, we've had an impressive lineup of forwards who's head goes to shit after one single miss Getting annoyed at him for missing chances? Never. Get annoyed at the forward who hides after the miss. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Edgar Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 (edited) Actually winds me up how people just will not accept fact Nothing wrong with saying his finishing wasn't great yesterday. He is still clinical... They aren't mutually exclusive. You can be an elite finisher and have a shoddy game.
