Sorry I mistook his age and thought that he was 20 at the moment but on checking he is 21 and is 22 in December so the answer would be no as he would take a squad place in the 25 named so we would have no vacancy to accomodate him

Indeed.
I'd imagine that we are already looking at freeing up two squad places, for a couple of quality January reinforcements. Things can change quickly, but right now I'd say Skalak and Murphy are those most likely to be making way. I'm not sure there's anyone else in the current 25 we could afford to be without.
(Maybe Sidwell if perhaps his injury turns out to be longer term than expected).

There’s a player in there with quality. We saw it in glimpses pre-illness when he was here. But based on the duration of his loan, and his lack of substance since, it would be a no from me.

Wilson also severely struggled with Derby when on loan there before his season ending injury last season. Despite him showing so much promise originally and all the talk of him achieving great things, it now definitely feels like he's in the last chance saloon. He needs to leave United, drop down the leagues and rebuild his career.

Despite not being fully fit or well when he played sometimes, wouldn't ever have him back - far too lightweight not enough effort showed no passion to speak of - body language not right - No!

No way.
He'll struggle to ever make it as a reliable striker even in the Championship.
Redcafe threads about Wilson gave up on him ages ago. At one point, he was the golden boy of their youth system.

Read somewhere that a former coach suggested he thought he had made it a couple of years ago and basically just stopped doing the basics and believed the publicity, whilst failing to keep putting in the effort.
Here it is

If the the alternative is nothing sign him up, otherwise no thanks.
He'd team up well with Ulloa and Barnes.

If the alternative is nothing, it's nothing for me.
It's strange how only you mentioned JW wasn't available as an under 21.
Do you have a little sideline as an 'alibi provider'?

I must admit I hadnt even considered that he would be 21 now as it didnt register how long ago it was when he was on loan to us and tend to forget the time lapse since.
And can I have some?
