He looked absolutely knackered again last night.
Still ill or not fully recovered?

He made some blistering dashes for half the length of the pitch and it did seem to take him a little while to fully recover. He is very very quick though as demonstrated.

I hate P*rtsm**th
I have noticed that too.
Kishishev (I think that was his name, anyway the ex Charlton midfielder) always used to look like a beetroot after about 10 minutes and I have wondered if Wilson is the same, i.e. he just always looks as though he is struggling.

He was probably tired from having to run away from sidwell after not playing him in for a obvious tap in

He only looked to struggle a little after being brought down in the box when he was through and about to shoot. (Obviously got a knock from it)
It was a perfectly timed sliding tackle by the defender to clear and never a penalty, but Wilson then collided with them after the clearance

Some lung busting runs last night. Did not seem to take that long to recover as he did last time against Huddersfield.

I thought he had a lot more stamina last night. Kept running throughout the half, despite spending a lot of time being the only one chasing down balls over the top.
Think he's on the way back from whatever it was.

He's clearly recovering from an illness biut last night was the best he's looked in a while. He needs games... That's how players get up to speed.
And he still created, what was it, 3 clear chances for other players last night, despite apparently not looking fit...

Was amazed to see how tired he appeared last night, he is quite obviously still feeling the effects of his illness which is hugely frustrating as its blindingly obvious what a huge talent he has.
I really hope another week see's improvement in his fitness / recovery and he's in a position to play off Hemed next Saturday.
His movement and positional play makes such a difference to us and for me he has to be playing alongside a target man rather than two target men playing alongside each other.

Was so lacking match fitness and stamina last night. The veteran Sidwell, who's hardly played, appeared the younger player in terms of energy.

Maybe he's just one of these people who always looks like everything is a massive effort, even when it's not.
Paula Radcliffe used to look as though she was on her last legs compared to the seemingly effortless Kenyan & Ethiopians, yet she was the best in the world in her prime.

Was mentioned a few times in the rev household! The paper boy needs a trim
They said the same about four boys from Liverpool who sang in Germany.
There was some match sharpness missing, but the reason he looked knackered was because of the knocks he took. Especially when the defender nicked the ball off him and he landed heavily. I think his tiredness was due to having the wind knocked out of him so many times. A real battling performance.
