If Moore goes anywhere it will be as a number 2, he seems to prefer it that way.
Absolutely“I’m the player now that I should have been 10 years ago” is a good honest assessment even from the man himself.
Has improved with a run of games and we all hope the improvement continues-not the answer to our longer term ambitions but fine to have as a back up.
Basically if he learns how to be a goalkeeper. No chance mate , you teach yourself how to kick when you're 6. He's a lost cause in that directionIf he learns to kick and come and catch a ball anywhere inside his box I'll be happy.
I keep seeing people on here praising MR .This is the same man who has put he faith in Wilson a goalkeeper who has been part of a defence that has conceded less goals than any one except the top 2. I suggest the other end of the field the problems are putting the ball in the net.I'll put me tin hat on now

Those stats are pre World Cup I assume? We’ve conceded 13 in the 8 games Wilson has played since the World Cup
Happy with him as a No2 keeper but not No1 if we want to progress. We now have both him an Moore under contract next year which worryingly suggests no new keeper coming in.We are not spoilt for riches. Wilson has definitely improved and is an adequate number 2. Seems like a good character to have around and has shown before that he will be supportive as an understudy. He isn't the most assured keeper by any means but at the same time I feel he has earned a new contract and good luck to him.
If that happens Robins needs asking about what he sees in him. All I see is a keeper who has poor distribution and average shot stopping ability but only when it's at a comfortable height.Fully expecting him to be number one next season, unfortunately.

That was Wilsons best game for us by far, his handling and kicking was spot on and that piece of brilliance to not handle the ball outside the area was sublime
I dunno, he's been pretty terrible!He's nowhere near as bad as some people make out. I'd still like to see us bring another keeper in but with Moore under contract I can't see that happening.
He made a couple of smart saves, got his positioning right for a couple more (and actually caught them rather than his usual unnerving pat down and slump), commanded area reasonably, and a couple of excellent quick throws to set Gyokeres off.He didn't have anything to do
Yeah I noticed one point where Doyle was facing his own goal chasing a long ball, he was looking for Wilson to either come and get it or get ready for the pass back. We need much better than him imoThere was still a moment where Doyle was facing him with an easy back pass and he knocked it out for a throw instead, I don’t think they trust him. Yesterday was a pretty easy day as they don’t really attack.

Whisper it though, but yesterday he was quite... good. Even came out and claimed a cross. Did dither for one, but can let him off that.
The fidgety style always makes me nervous mind you! Less of that yesterday as he actually got rid of the ball quickly and decisively.
