My theory that Hart took #12 and left #13 for Wilson is now in tatters.
You and lots of others!


Can't help but think that our name was used for the likes of Wilson and Fraser as a way of drawing clubs like Newcastle into spending more money

He's had a good game as well. Lots of good movement and hard work.

You do wonder how good he'd of been with the likes of Son and Dele interchanging with him.

He’s been class ffs. I’m sure we will get someone eventually but we could have had this guy done a while ago for no more than 20m.

I would have had him too but Villa also wanted him and there was clearly a bidding war going on.

He clearly wasnt our number 1 choice though and, if we were getting into a bidding war then we may as well go get the number 1 choice.

Very good game, I think he'd of suited us pretty well, I can clearly see how he would have offered an extra dimension partnered with Kane.

Mind, people like 'we could have had him' etc. Ignore that maybe the player might be more attracted to smaller clubs where they might be the main man, and Wilson will quite clearly be the main man at Newcastle.

Let's hope. They've flirted with it a few times recently, let's hope it finally happens. Largest ground in the championship
I would Kevin keegan love it if they go down.
Don’t think they will as Fulham West Brom and burnley for me.

Callum Wilson was always going to look good today he’s in a 4-4-2 with Carroll against one of the 4 worse defences in the league. Wait until Newcastle play teams who keep the ball or who they need to break down, Wilson won’t have as much joy then.

he’s a good player but I think he suits Newcastle and we hopefully will sign someone of better quality. If we sign Deeney level then sure Q’s will be asked why on earth we waited so long and didn’t just sign Wilson etc.
