Nah, not having that like. I've been reading nothing but how **** he is, how over rated he is, how he clearly doesn't apply himself in training and how Howe clearly doesn't fancy him and how we've paid £30m too much for him.
Howes comments today was pathetic. Saying Isak is got to play 90 minutes for other teams but not for us in the style we play yet Wilson is?
He is not yet at peak fitness. He was ****ed after 50mins yesterday. Think Eddie is playing it exactly right.
Big difference for me is that Isak can lose his marker. Wilson doesn’t seem capable of doing that anymore. Whether balls into feet or in air he is always tussling with defender. Isak moves much better.
Isak's only issue now is fitness. Almost every time he plays he proves he's better than Wilson. Quicker, more creative, more skillful, better at losing his man, links up better with others. If he manages to stay fit, Wilson is a good covering option, but Isak is clearly superior and deserves more time. He has a decent goals to games ratio now.
Wilsons record last 3 seasons 12 in 26 8 in 18 7 in 18. 62 apps, 27 goals. That's not bad at all really. Consider also that not all these were starts, and some he came off early.
Media ****e bags! Isak and Maxi to keep developing their partnership and end up with 14 more goals/assists before the end of the season.
Wilson has one goal in his last 15 games. That is bad really. Wilson's goals always come in a flock, then he either gets injured or has crap spells like now.
