If you look at the Top Scorers in the Championship, Walker's minutes per goal is better than most, ahead of the likes of Ayew, Solanke, Woodrow etc.
Given how much we struggle to score goals as a team that's pretty impressive.
We knew it was only a matter of time & personally I'm delighted for him.
Not sure how The Sun have got in first on the story but they can't do anything without fucking up can they? 🤦🏼♂️
Agreed. It was a better stop than given credit for. Ask any keeper & they'll tell you the ones that bounce just before reaching you can be a nightmare but he got down to it well & strong push away to a safe area.
I know some fans are desperate to pick holes in our recruitment but he wasn't some random impulse buy, we tracked him for at least a year & saw enough over that time to offer him a 3 year contract.
He's clearly got good technical ability but had major fitness issues since arriving.
Hopefully he...
Looks like Jobello playing LWB, no surprise he's not particularly positionally aware in that role tbf. I see Tisdale's commented that it was a bit of a freak goal where the cross got caught in the wind.
Spot on. I think because of how long he's been around our first team people forget just how young he is. In the majority of matches he is the youngest player on the pitch.
It is impressive & I'm certainly not wanting to knock Wilson at all but word of caution that Save Percentage is just about the most unreliable stat there is in football.
Still, some esteemed company there & fair play to him, done far better than everyone expected & is rightly No.1 at the moment.
We were one of the best around at it in League One then completely changed tact upon promotion & by the stats now we're one of the least high pressing teams in the league. That stems from a concern that the better opposition can play through (or over) it & would leave us exposed defensively imo...
I'm fairly sure they can't simply sell it off without a replacement already in place that's at least of the same/better standard. FA, local council & Sport England won't allow it.
