Not only that, they are strung out along a line 26 yards long. Some of them could even be behind him/her. I think that's asking a lot of his/her peripheral vision. Hardly, If referee him/her open their body and look up the way to box it’s not that difficult to see who is moving across the line / the penalty taker if he’s stopping still in his run up. Lino watches the keeper / goal line. Generally players do not spread themselves across the entire box so it’s an even smaller area to watch. Its just lazy refereeing in that they can’t take control between themselves and the Lino. Other countries seem to manage it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that he’s got to be given time but that hasn’t been afforded to him by some. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time will tell. -5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depends what your looking for to be honest. IMO he has the potential to be a midfielder we can build around. I don’t see him as the Bryson or Kelly who will go box to box, create chances and pitch in with their shares of goals. To me he will be the long term replacement for Dicker. A player who will keep it simple and do what’s needed to allow others to do their best work. To say he’s not been great is harsh. In his debut season he got passed from pillar to post. Asked to come in and play at CB he didn’t let himself down. Cover at RB likewise. An inexperienced player asked to hold together a calamitous midfield and again he gave it his best and was nowhere near the worst. Now is when we will see what he’s made of. With proper coaching in a decent set up and a clearly defined role in the team. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s all in the eye of the beholder. talent shines through, but it has to be coupled with determination, hard work, an attentive ear and a willing mind. if young ian has those he has the basic talent to make it. If he doesn’t then his talent will go largely under developed and he won’t make it as far as he could. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrangodog Posted February 17, 2018 Report Share Posted February 17, 2018 Wilson has suffered the same fate under previous managers as Jackson Irvine and Mark O'Hara did. Shunted between defence and midfield when a gap arose so that they didn't play regularly in their best position. Wilson is a talented lad and will hopefully become a first team regular but maybe not this season with Mulumbu and Tshibola competing for places in midfield. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not commenting on one game. I'm commenting on how he's looked over the 30 or so that he's played. My opinion is he's been continually impressive since he came into the team. Did well in midfield, did well at centre half, did well at right back. As far as I'm concerned for a boy at 19 he does look a talent. He's defensively sound and he finds a pass more often than not, that combined with his size and strength I think he could (and probably will) go far. He's awkward and unnatural looking on the ball though, I know that puts a panic into people. We'll agree to disagree, I've been impressed and you haven't. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zorro Posted February 17, 2018 Report Share Posted February 17, 2018 (edited) I rate Wilson and agree with the other posters who’ve pointed out he’s been shunted around the team. He will be a big player for us in the coming years. He has far more potential than Frizzell. Edited February 17, 2018 by Zorro 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boabkfc19 Posted February 17, 2018 Report Share Posted February 17, 2018 I like big Wilson and if Clarke said he's a talent and could be whatever he wanted to be well that's good enough for me! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think I will listen to Steve Clarke's opinion rather than your 'Guff" one. I think he looks a very good prospect and with careful coaching and management could play at a higher level than us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
