If he's good enough to fire us to the PL, I imagine Utd will want to give him a chance to perform with them before letting him go, and I'd think Wilson would rather succeed with Utd than with us. I hope we find out.

I don't think we've seen the best of him yet, his illness, may of come at the right time as now effectively we have a new signing ! With the turmoil that's going on a united and the uncertainty about whose going to be in charge next season, if Wilson is a success and gets us to the prem, I would like to think Bloom would go all out to buy him permanently !
No, a trainee pedant.

Splendid article from Keiran. I don't agree with all he said, but it was well composed, grammatically correct and contained a keen knowledge and understanding of the game. A most enjoyable read.
Maybe he should write on Albion matters for Brighton & Hove News (A good publication for the most part). I'd certainly read his work.

I wouldn't like to imagine how much they would charge us.

Pretty harsh on Baldock and Murphy who have both made an excellent contribution to our successful season. The author of that is a jerk.
Agree on comments re Wilson, but not at all re Baldock or Murphy. Both have made significant contributions.

Agree completely. Comments on Murphy and Baldock are a joke in that article. Simple fact is Wilson hasn't played well enough to start regularly except for his first month.

Totally agree, the criticism of Baldock is a joke, we are a far far better side with him in it. His runs and stretching play are unrivalled in our squad. Murphy has been a solid and superb member of the squad and Lua Lua had a significant impact on our good start to the season, I think he has more than only 'half the talent' of his older brother.
Out of all the players mentioned, Baldock, Murphy, Lua Lua and Wislon. Wilson is the weakest player of the lot.

I've now seen who is the writer. Our resident Baldock hater so I would ignore completely. A good writer would try to have a balanced view rather than letting their own prejudices show but sadly it has not happened in this case.
First two paragraphs OK, but after that it turns to mostly rubbish.

He's done pretty much sweet f*** all since vomming on New Years Day and looks knackered after about 15 minutes 
that said I hope I am proved wrong from now until the end of the season.

What an idiotic report. Wilson started very brightly but he's been unfit and ineffective for about 3 months - during which we've been winning.
Putting the bizarre anti-Baldock agenda aside (we're better with him in the team that without), Murphy has been arguably our most consistent winger all year - not injured like Kaz or March, nor brilliant but frustrating like Knockaert. He's a solid 7/10 every game and netted 6 or 7 goals, making him our 3rd top scorer. To say he's not good enough is odd in the extreme.

His assessment of Wilson seems pretty good, but it's comical on Baldock. What's his username on here?

This.
The article comes across totally as trying to suck up to Man Utd fans, and somehow justify why their player hasn't been the automatic first choice. Leaving aside the fact that Wilson has been unwell/unfit for the last few months, Murphy and Baldock have delivered far more consistency and high levels of performance.
VERY poor form from the author of that nonsense.
BG? Enrest? Bozza? One of them, for sure. Maybe.
