    I bet anyone would rather have Toney... he's got 15 goals plus assists.

    Big strong scores goals and gets assists

    Apparently Rashford had scored 18 goals since the World Cup.

    Wilson…… 0

    Wilson deserves some loyalty... fans are always crying about loyalty from players but fans show zero to the players and its notable

    Why does he deserve loyalty mate? He’s been with us for a couple of years.

    We are loyal with him. We support him. But at the moment he’s not playing well so maybe a rest is needed.

    Because he's been a very good player for us from day 1. He's a proven player. The entire team lacks goals he's a goalscorer.

    Fans have no loyalty for players but expect it from the players.

    Lost to Liverpool man united and man City .... there's no reason to change everything and betray players because of that.

    You're not controlling that you're just a fan that has no patience and thinks he knows better than the people taking training every day.

    Callum Wilson is a goalscorer a proven one and the minute he has a bad run of games you along with others are out with your pitch forks.

    If you want goals you don't take away your only goalscorer imo.

    Is that clear enough?

    Isak can plan aswell btw you don't have to rip everything up and start again just because you lost to Liverpool man united and Man City.

    I get people have a hard on about Isak because he's a fancy foreign signing on a high fee, but you don't have to betray the best goalscorer you've had for years.

    Max Almiron for example give them a rest ...

    Your language is getting silly mate.

    What's the difference?

    Why would YOU betray Max and Miggy, when you could rest Wilson, who isn't performing?

    Keep it level.

    You'll say that, but the entire fanbase signing they're the loyalist football supporters the world has ever had ???? Yeah until the side loses to man City .

    The point I'm making is based on the full time frame Wilson has been here.. he's a proven goalscorer. ....

    The difference is Almiron and max are not goalscorers max in particular
    ...
    I've been reading people saying Wilson is ****

    Yeah, I get that mixing it up and playing both might be worth trying out too. <cheers>

    All I mean is you can't classify dropping Wilson as a "betrayal", whereas dropping anyone else is merely "resting" them. It's an imbalanced use of terminology to favour one player. :emoticon-0148-yes:

    No because the other two are not strikers and isak hasn't proven himself.

    Max and almiron being swapped for isak is not the same given they've proven they have not produced the majority of their time here.

    Wilson HAS :emoticon-0148-yes:

    I don’t think he’s been right for a while kind. He’s not making the same runs and isn’t reading the game right.

    Sometimes a player needs taken out of the firing line just to mix it up a bit.

    You play players on form. He’s out of form right now so for me we give Isak a chance.

    I agree he's not been playing well , but he's a proven goalscorer and will definitely score goals again.

    I would make a case the sides simply had tough games and low on confidence.

    I hope howe sticks with 4 3 3 because that's what's got the club where it is and and I think removing your only capable striker isn't necessary.

    If you want goals get the players that have proven they don't score them off 1st......why go after Wilson a player that's played with one tooth hanging out and scored important goals.
