Cam the Ram Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Manchester United striker James Wilson is at the centre of a battle between Championship rivals Derby County and Fulham. Wilson has been cleared to leave on loan by new United manager Jose Mourinho and Derby and Fulham are fighting to strike a deal before this weekend. The England under-21 international impressed on loan at Brighton last season, scoring five goals in 28 appearances, but has not been given a squad number by United ahead of the first half of this campaign. His hopes of staking a claim under Mourinho have also diminished after the summer signing of Zlatan Ibrahimovic and emergence of young striker Marcus Rashford. The 20-year-old is one of a number of players who will be allowed out on loan, including Tyler Blackett and Will Keane. Adnan Januzaj has already joined Sunderland on loan, while Donald Love and Paddy McNair completed permanent moves to the Stadium of Light. But Wilson has four years remaining on his contract and is highly thought of by United’s backroom team, after being given his first-team debut by Ryan Giggs in May 2014 and it is thought a loan move back to the Championship will be beneficial for both parties.

randombc Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Would be a useful addition to the squad, different to both Martin and Bent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DcFc Dyycheee Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Type of player we should be after. Talented young player looking to prove himself. Didn't do all that much for Brighton last season mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mostyn6 Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 not sure I'd want to drop any of our players to put him in ahead of any of our other players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

North_Stand_Ram Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Would prefer us to pull a permanent out the bag.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MACKWORTHRAM Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 No chance of a permanent mate. Very highly thought of at Man Utd and has only just signed a 4 year deal at Man U. Id have him over Bent every day of the week. He offers a lot more. If we keep Martin, I think he would be the only striker we would sign. However if we were to sell Martin then we would sign another striker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the same but he didn't go on their 28 man pre season tour, and I read a while back that Fulham were set to sign him on loan with a view to a permanent. Now obviously that hasn't happened (yet), who knows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sexydadbod Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Very good player, would be happy with this addition. He puts 100% into every game, so hard that he threw up a number of times for Brighton. Type of strong mentality we need. Actually this could be our new tactic, throw up all over the opposition players. Would that count as violent conduct? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCFC1388 Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 A lot of people mention taking Bamford back, id say Wilson is of similar quality and style to Bamford Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
