If he had scored a respectable, normal level of goals for a good championship striker we'd have been promoted at a canter. Everyone loves someone who grafts and works but that's not enough, I think people stuck up for CMS for far too long because he also worked hard.
yeah fair enough. Perhaps that footballing intelligence comes with experience - Baldock is a fair bit older, and ideally something Wilson could be taught. I think Wilson would be a good signing which would most likely increase in value.
I agree but as is often said he is a striker and should be scoring goals. Making a nuisance of himself is great and freeing up space is important too but his main job should be goals in the back of the net - not dragging players out of position?
Rather have Wilson than Baldock, wouldn't mind him back. I think people judge him too harshly given that he was clearly unwell much of the time and suffering from something long-term like glandular fever. If that's cleared up then there is a quality player in there with lightning pace.
I recall when we were all nervous Utd would recall him. LvG reassuring the faithful that there was a recall clause when Utd fans seemed a little shocked they would loan out such a brilliant player to a Championship team...
