A telepathic understanding as good as Yorke and Cole I reckonI'd rather him stay here than go on loan to a Championship club. I think he would've got games at say Bournemouth for example, Wilson and Wilson up front.

Easy to forget how young he still is. That was his U21 debut he scored on!His development was a bit weird to me past year. He stagnated a lot and he had decent number of chances to prove himself. He failed to do that, always looked like he can last only 40mins or so... big problem is also his holdup play being below average, his aerial abilities are poor too.
I think he's even more useful when guarding a lead. A good out-ball and pacey for the counter attacks.Not strong enough to handle the premier league every week from the start, but he's a good option from the bench when we are chasing a goal.
He's going to be a very good striker in a few years, I'm glad we've kept hold of him. There was talk that he might want away permanently this summer due to a lack of game time.
Both him and Martial seem like 9 and a halves, both comfortable up top/ dropping deeper and moving to wide positions. It will be interesting to see if they can play together!
Henry was right footed and enjoyed cutting in from the left and finishing with his right foot.He'd be good on the left of a front three though. Could be our own version of Thierry Henry. He did most of his best work from the left.
He started him against Liverpool at home last year I think. Would be a strange thing to do if he didn't rate him. Though he has definitely fallen away a bit this season it seems, who who really knows.Wilson has impressed me at reserve level more than Welbeck and even Will Keane. I'm convinced he can make it here, and I can't see how reports of LvG not rating him are true. True, he needs to bulk up a bit, but at the same time he had such speed, agility and balance, and a hell of a left foot. Wilson should have been getting the game time Falcao was gifted last season.
Exactly, also came on and finished the game off at QPR, which we were lacking all season. Usually we'd sit at 1-0 and shit our pants for the next half an hour. I'm pretty sure he does rate him.He started him against Liverpool at home last year I think. Would be a strange thing to do if he didn't rate him.

The only thing I'm really taking from the fact we moved Januzaj etc is that hopefully that will open the door for Pereira in some capacity. Wilson will get chances this year now to, although I'm still not sure about him at the top level just yet.At the end of the day a squad position has opened up. Who knows if it will go to Perreira or Wilson or who will grab their chance.
Disagree completely. I was disappointed that he didn't manage to show his true colours in the first team but he's had a really tough 12months with injuries. Hopefully when he stops growing we'll see a lot of the niggily injuries that have plagued him disappear.His development was a bit weird to me past year.

So yeah maybe use him as a wide forward
He was fine with injuries last year but needs to grow up from it, you're right.. I'm personally worried about his ankles.Disagree completely.

His hold up play and aerial ability are both fine imo as well.
He's also got Martial as competition now too. I sure hope he doesn't go out on loan to the Championship.When does the emergency loan window close? , it would be just madness to loan him to a Championship club but we seem to like a bit of madness. Just checked and it actually opens tomorrow and will close in November, really hope we don't send him out on loan or there will be a lot of Fellaini upfront this season.

And Fellaini obviously.Leaves us with Rooney and Martial for the #9 and that's it? Is he taking the piss or what the feck?
At least it somewhat confirms that Martial will play #9.

Darren Bent and Chris Martin there.What are their other strikers like? Would he be a starter?
Yeah but you can't recall them anytime like when you loan players to Championship. I guess Wilson will only be loaned for 1-2 months.. Hopefully he will bang in goals and then be back soonerWasn't there solid interest from PL teams just a couple days before deadline day? Derby hardly seems like a solid, stable club to loan to.
