They have been struggling to get a keeper all summer, and they need two so would make sense.

Disappointing if true, Wilson was outstanding last season. We all talk about Gyokeres and Hamer, but he was a big part of our season last year

According to some on here it was down to the defence and not Wilson

I was a big critic, and rightly so, he was rubbish, but I do admire his turnaround last season... loads of clean sheets, iconic goal, seems a good lad to have around. That said if we can convince someone he's worth over a million on the back of 1 season it's a no brainer for us, also I think Collins has come here to be our number 1.
Luton seem to be building a squad to have another tilt at the Championship playoffs in 2 years.

Everyone's new favourite player Sakamoto on the bench today, will we see him come on for Palmer at half time in attacking midfield?

The defence has to trust the keeper, you have to be a good keeper to gain that trust

Bench shows squad depth issue at the moment. Hopefully resolved in next 4 weeks.

Starting line up is looking better aside from a proper RWB though. We’ve actually got CBs!

Will be interesting how many minutes the youngster Eghosa gets. Had 45 mins in both friendlies. Not seen him play but could suggest he is another one to look out for?

Wilson is one of the easier players to replace from last season imo

Yeah Wilson had nothing to do with keeping clean sheets, that’s how football works

Wilson must be off if he isn't even there. Normally if someone is injured they travel don't they?

We were keeper heavy, but I do find it a bit distasteful how we had the golden glove in the league last season and we're so quick to give the credit to another department. Of course the defence help a goalkeeper, but it also works both ways. Wilson was also really good a lot more than some people want to acknowledge. I'm not sure if that is to do with some long-standing annoyance that some had with him previous to last season or just an over-analysis on stat websites, but it's unfair.

It was clearly a combined effort from the defence and the keeper. And the whole team in fact. Strange to suggest otherwise really.

In the same way the success of the Beatles was a combined effort from John, Paul, George, and Ringo.

Someone started a rumour on twitter about him going to Luton a month or so. That seems to be where the story originated as far as I can see!

Let’s hope so. He’s now missed a week of pre-season training and 2 games.

He only reported back last week, and as it was a heart problem, they are probably being extra careful.

Fucking hell! That would be unbelievable business. Especially as i genuinely believe Robins is getting all the money from sales to put back into the squad.

Agreed. I love him and hes come on leaps and Bounds but if we muster 4 million for him then thats better business than getting 20 for Vik

If that's with add ons such as Luton staying up I'd tell them to fuck off.

I agree Wilson had a good season and I do really like him, but personally don’t think he’s good enough for a top end championship side. Yes he may have won golden glove but I would say that was more down to the defence more than anything. Plus he’s awful with his feet. A fee of anything more than £500k is good business imo.
