Kinder Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 At the start of the season I thought we’d be saying this about Mason Mount, but you’re absolutely right - I can’t think is anyone who’s made more of an impact than Harry Wilson. The only downside is every time he scores, I have to shout “Harold” in an Albert Steptoe voice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RESS511 Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 George Thorne on loan was pretty good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellafella Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 You can’t help but like Harry Wilson to bits. Such a stylish footballer; but with a wasp-like sting. And post-match he gives such a lyrical account of the game without hesitation or deviation. The sort of boy you want your daughter to bring home. Can he get 20? Yes, he probably can and probably will. What a wonderful footballer to watch....imagine him and Will Hughes in the same side..? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Millenniumram Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Nah Leon best mate, what an impact he had! In all seriousness, depends what you class as best loan. In terms of technical ability I’d say he’s probably the best I’ve seen at derby, his strike of a football is unreal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loved his take on radio Derby "look, i signed up for the season and that's what I intend to do, scoring and assisting and trying to get to the PL" (words to that effect) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkle Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 It makes a change that all 3 of this seasons loans actually play and can all play well - which highlights some of the naff ones we have had in the past - maybe it’s because they are young and want to succeed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Sagan Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Harry genuinely strikes a football like Bale and Ronaldo. The stats on long range goals and freekicks shows that. When you saw the slowmo of his shot against Southampton it terrified the keeper who only just managed to keep it out. It will be amazing if he's this seasons 20 goal striker! Delighted to see him in a Rams shirt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep he an excellent talent, still parts to his game that need to improve but that will come with time and experience.......all the fundementals are there for him to be an excellent top flight player. He should be some player by the time he hits his mid twenties! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Osman kept us up IMO so no ,Harry is in a team trying for promotion so different scenario.Having said that I think HW is the dogs balls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parsnip Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Easily the best loan of all time! Who knew at the start of the season that we had a world class knuckleball specialist in our ranks! Absolutely amazing! How are teams going to cope with him? Defenders can't risk tackling him outside the area - give him a free kick and it's as good as a penalty! It's cheating really, he should be taking these free kicks against Champions League keepers. When he leaves Derby I'm going to cry. But players like Harry can be the difference in promotion seasons so maybe if we go up Frank can tempt him to another season... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaspode Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Osman almost single handedly grabbed hold of a poor team and kept us in the division - if Harry keeps on producing (and scoring) - potentially leading to promotion, you will be able to say he's the best we've had, but as things stand, Osman had a bigger impact on the club purely because of how lacking we were at the time and where we would have been without him.....

Waffle Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 There was no fan fare before his arrival. I remember there was even a special article on Mount by football scouted. He came back a new player from his injury. Who steps up when he goes? McAllister? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ollycutts1982 Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Loving hHarry this season. Much better central. On a side note and by no means do I want to seem out of order but never realised he had a bit of a stammer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duracell Posted January 20, 2019 Share Posted January 20, 2019 Alberto Bueno could and should have been our best loan signing. It was criminal to have a player of that ability in our squad and fail to find a use for him. Thorne took us to another level in 13/14 and if he was playing like that with us all season we would have been promoted automatically. Wilson is obviously a great signing but Osman just edges it for me. You have to consider the context of the time and it’s hard to argue against that loan signing being the most significant factor in us staying up. Taribo West deserves a mention too.
