nufc4eva Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 Such a drop down from Isaks movement and pace now but did still cover the ground just too slow Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ronaldo Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 Yeah he tried hard but I’d like to see Osula in situations like that. Can see the pace is all gone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KetsbaiaIsBald Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 He's a better player than what he's showing in the last few matches. He's always second choice now but he needs to be showing more. Not long ago he was in the England team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
joeyt Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 Doesn't hold the ball up and can't run beyond players to stretch the game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hanshithispantz Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 Thought he looked a lot fitter and played well personally but Willock being so far up ahead of him is a decent sign his legs have gone like Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lush Vlad Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 He came alive in and around the box. But it’s almost sad to see centre backs just jog past him and the other team just play piggy in the middle with him. His legs really have gone. He was a lot better when it opened up at 2-1. The first 5-10 he looked miles off it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 It's like watching someone trying to run wearing one of those cumbersome It's a Knockout style costumes when he comes on. Just looks so far past it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr Venkman Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 (edited) This is the only long term issue I’ve got with Eddie like. Don’t get it. It didn’t make sense when he was keeping Isak out of the starting line up and it doesn’t make sense that he gets any time over Osula now.

Checko Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 Think people are going way overboard here. He was fine for the most part. Isak fucked up way more stuff than him tonight. I'd definitely like to see Osula get some more minutes, he's pure chaotic good, but Wilson's also the senior pro. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
El Prontonise Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 It's really sad to see him this bad tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kid Icarus Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 It's sad in a way like because you know his mind is still sharp as anything. What a striker he's been. To have the injury record that he's had and still carve out that career is a great achievement. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GEFAFWISP Posted April 2 Share Posted April 2 He's goosed, either Osula steps in or we may as well rotate Barnes/Gordon up top instead. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The senior pro who ripped his pec muscle fighting for a ball off the pitch. He’s been a good servant in past, but he’s days are long gone and he’s shown nothing all season. When he comes on, we’re also playing with 9.5 outfield players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PauloGeordio Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 He’s not honouring the shirt number anymore! He’s done.Been a great servant but he’s done now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledGeordie Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 (edited) Wilson has lost pace for sure but he’s also been out for ages so he’s clearly going to have lost sharpness too. I don’t think he was that bad last night but I was more concerned about his lack of holding up play more than his pace. Hes a natural goalscorer though which is why I think Howe is trying to give him minutes, he knows he might need to rely on him to get a goal or two between now and then end of the season. We could really do with him bagging one against Leicester or someone like that. Edited April 3 by ExiledGeordie Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobsonsWonderland Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 I'm as quilty as the next man for wearing rose tainted glasses for Wilson but sadly time catches up with everyone. Last night needed someone to be able to counter attack to make Bournemouth wary... Their defenders knew they had the measure of him Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbydazzla Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 We should have sold Wilson and kept Wood Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinny Green Balls Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 (edited) Good chance we wouldn't have gotten 4th without him. He scored 18 goals in the PL that season. Not so certain that Wood would have been in Forest form then. Edited April 3 by Vinny Green Balls Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bobbydazzla Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 We should have kept both Wood and Wilson until Wilson scored his 18 goals, then I would have sold Wilson and kept Wood and we would have had Wood in his Forest form wouldn’t we ? Mitchell is to blame Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Often he’s coming on where he’s going to need to run into space to get those chances for goals though, and he’s shown to have no pace. Even when he does run through, think it was Forest (?) game he could’ve passed it twice for goal scoring chances, instead selfishly decided to go for personal glory instead and it nearly cost us.

David Edgar Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Honestly, look at this clip from last night. The man can barely keep up with the play. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menace Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Think he would benefit a team that plays 2 up top and has his partner doing all the leg work - probably still a lethal poacher. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
