DAFC. Posted March 18, 2021 Share Posted March 18, 2021 It’s plausible, with Crawford’s contacts, that Turner has spoke behind his back with a club like Hearts and Craw has caught wind, if rumours are to be believed. Maybe that is a line that you do not cross, but that’s just pure speculation. He has been decent enough this season, but hasn’t scored enough or got enough assists to really get you buzzing about him. So, no real loss in all honesty when we have Mayo, Wilson (ten times the player) and Whittaker. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson rarely passes the ball forwards which is a big part of the role of an attacking CM. Wilson is much more comfortable looking passing the ball square or backwards, watch him more closely. Turner had pace to burn which none of the alternatives do, I really dont think a central midfield of Wilson and Whitaker can be described as attack minded. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that Wilson is not 10 times the player but he's capable of playing in a more advanced role too IMO. It really depends on what job Crawford wants him to do for a specific game. I think he's got good skill and not scared to take a man on in a tight space and carry the ball forward He's had 1 or 2 games where his passing has been way off. I think if he has a poor game,it tends to be a bit of a stinker. He was superb against Raith Rovers a few weeks back.My MOM that night. He was driving play forward and was playing more box to box style. I think big midfielders can get get pigeon holed as a defensive midfield player because they are over 6ft. In a different level I think McTominay has suffered from that in the past too. Wilson is the Scottish Championship version of McTominay. I would rather have Wilson at the club than Turner I have to say. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob1885 Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 Wilson is a big rolls royce of a midfielder, an unsung hero this season along with Whittaker. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 Wilson is tremendous. His tackling is crucial in midfield, it's felt like a long time since we've had someone that can challenge on the ground so often and win the ball. He's quick and strong, cliche as it sounds, it means he's not easy disposed of often. He can pick a pass when someone makes the right run. THAT ball to McManus against the wee team. Offft. Scored late on against St Johnstone to take it to penalties on a night we weren't creating much. Would like to see him add more goals to his game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think Random Guy above has pretty much showed how Wilson is miles better. The point I was making wasn't necessarily about the goals and assists, just the fact they are 3 very good options to have. Not as if Turner was the only good centre-mid we had. That's the point. Wilson is my POTY so far. Don't think anyone can take over from him, unless he has a stinking run-in. Any of the usual back 4 maybe challenge that thought due to being consistent and having the best record in the league. Tough one. No real outstanding candidate as such, a la Kevin Nisbet last season.

Comrie again, despite missing out a few weeks (as has Wilson). There's nobody that has been absolute head and shoulders above anyone else, but those two are definitely in the running. Possibly along with Watson. And NeuSkerla. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chubbychops Posted March 19, 2021 Share Posted March 19, 2021 I would say Euan Murray as player of the year. Really good consistent performances and you can't ignore his early season scoring exploits. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

parsforlife Posted March 20, 2021 Share Posted March 20, 2021 POTY could go to any of the regulars apart from OFW imo. I’d give it to Wilson just now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
