He is the most improved player of the season, yes the defence in front of him do well keeping goalkeeping action at bay but when it comes down to him he’s made good significant saves and has improved on crosses etc, notice he comes out early more and punches crosses away.

I think they might've been the second team to have tried that since WBA - wankers.

This is a very popular myth. Lennon never said that; it’s actually a Jasper Carrot joke.

But he did say "you talk so hip you're squeezing my mellon man" a lyric nicked by Shaun Ryder.

Er wasn’t that Steve McQueen?

Both Courtois and Alisson have made errors tonight far worse than anything Wilson has done for us. Dread to think the sort of abuse he would get after an error like those.

Wilson has kept clean sheets in over 50% of his matches this season but according to the goalkeeping experts on here it’s nothing to do with Wilson. The defenders in front of him are the sole reason according to some, baffling

It’s a combination of the right defenders in front of him, and the confidence he has in McFadz, which has allowed his own confidence to increase and thereby giving him the room to improve ability-wise.

Fair play to Wilson, he’s surprised the heck out of me this season.

Should people not be top scorers if they have somebody putting goals on a plate for them or winning penalties?

And surely we should have won the golden glove last year when Fadz played most games alongside Dom Bobby Moore Hyam?

His positioning and starting position was fantastic tonight. Seems to be getting more and more confident. Some of his kicking is still poor however

Didn't have a lot to do tonight but looked safe and a brave save at the foot of one of their players.

I thought he did very well for the Evans chance. Great body shape and positioning.

Did everything he needed to last night except for his long kicks. Don't remember a decent one. There was a few times he was alert enough to come running out. A couple of times he was down at the feet of a player and getting the ball.

What more can he do for the doubters?

All jokes apart and I know some of you still won't like him and would be pleased if we could get a fee, but with those kind of impressive stats I'd be amazed if he too wasnt on the radar of other clubs and that scouts were looking at him too. Ultimately the new contract signed that was scoffed at by some on here and other social media, could be a masterstroke whether he continues to improve or from a point of resale valuation.

Thought he looked good last night and made a couple of decent saves. Only thing that still worries me is his commanding of the six yard box on crosses. Like the rest of the defence looks better/more assured when Fadz is playing

He's definitely improved but I still wouldn't have him as a #1 after next season.
