Hoffenheim's U23s play in the 3. Liga which is a fair level. Nothing comparable with 'B' teams in the Scottish Lowland League. Quote
bdgsct Posted January 30 Posted January 30 The speculation around Wilson (not just recently) is very strange. Frozen out after refusing to sign a contract (very rare at youth level) then agreeing £15k a week (rumoured) and not getting a sniff of first team football despite villa being very short of strikers. And now being linked with loan moves with options at very high fees. Not sure what to make of it, he must be seriously rated but then you think he's 20 and not kicked a professional ball. I suppose an option is just that. He needs first team football. Quote
er yir macaroon Posted January 31 Posted January 31 If Bowie gets off to a flyer in Italy, say 10 goals between now and the end of the season, and he shows that he can lead the line against Serie A defenders, I don't see why he won't start at the WC. It's a big IF but I've got a feeling about this. Quote

Guest Posted January 31 Posted January 31 7 minutes ago, theabsentee said: Huge IF! If he scores even 5 in that struggling team he will have done fantastic and enough to make the summer squad. Eights goals in the Scottish Premiership for a team that's been doing relatively well this year. Like you, I'd be very impressed if he scored just a few for Verona. I hope it all works out for him (and us) but I think there is something dodgy about this transfer if the 'well in excess of 4.4m' is true. He's been a slightly above average forward in a league that is way behind Serie A in terms of quality. Quote
syecosse Posted February 1 Posted February 1 New name for me Queens park Henry Fieldson is attracting interest from DPL and EFL sides has a small release clause, is also apparantly in line for a Scotland u21 call up. Quote

Sometimes you look at transfers and think, "yes I can maybe see what's happening here" but this one? Thought he would have gone to St Johnstone or Dunfermline on loan. I know Arsenal are not too happy with their striker's output but cannot see Jesus or the Swedish guy feeling their place is under threat from James Wilson. Hope I am wrong. Quote

Arsenal reserves then on loan. He's still an 18 yo prospect despite his experience. Quote
csinclair Posted February 2 Posted February 2 I really hope he goes on to develop into a great player for us but I've just not seen it with him. Maybe I've just watched bad games but whenever I've seen him for Hearts he looks like he's struggling to keep up with the game and in his cameo for Scotland looked like a competition winner Quote
Dodger Posted February 2 Posted February 2 1 hour ago, ProudScot said: James Wilson about to join Arsenal One of the weirdest transfers in recent history if this goes through. Best guess is they see potential to buy him on the cheap, loan him out and then sell him on for a profit. Quote

ThistleWhistle Posted February 2 Posted February 2 Don’t get Wilson at all - get he’s young but expected to see something that makes him standout but haven’t. Wales and Stirton look better prospects to me. However when I saw Harry Kane play for Norwich I strongly believed Championship would be his ceiling so scouting strikers maybe isn’t for me! Quote
syecosse Posted February 2 Posted February 2 Genoa after Nathan Patterson. Bolton have had a £500k bid for Davud Watson rejected. Outside of transfers Veronas coach has been sacked before Bowie can make his debut. Quote
syecosse Posted February 2 Posted February 2 Rory Wilson expected to leave on loan today, Stevenage, Sheff wed and European sides. Quote
