Harry Wilson

[fowler9]

16 year old winger from the academy called into the full Wales squad

 

Never really heard of him let alone seen him play, does he have the potential to be something special or are Wales just that shit?

[moof]

Bloody hell. Even if they are shite that's some achievement to be called up to the full international squad at that age.

[Frankenhooker]

He looks very promising at youth level, but he's only played five minutes for our U21s. He'll probably play five minutes for Wales to secure his nationality or something.

[Innova]

I can't even get into a footie club at 16.

Wales are fucked with injuries and pull outs at the moment I think. Jules may know more.

[Russ Atmosphere]

Hope he's in our first team soon so I can groan when he loses the ball.

[Jairzinho]

The new Ramon Calliste.

[Gym Beglin]

Our youth oyster is starting to form some very small but very encouraging pearls.

[dennis tooth]

Calliste, the new beckham/giggs as he was billed, I just checked and he is now playing for East London saracens or someone not even made it as a pro. Its a fine line.

They are, missing loads of players. Can't blame them really as the games are meaningless at this point.

He can't be 16, he was the prime minister when I was a nipper.

[Pidge]

I saw Barrett mention on twitter that it was unfair how he's already been dubbed the new Gareth Bale by some. Personally I think they've called him up as it's the last time he'll have a chance to train with another senior player who is actually a much better comparison (in terms of style - not suggesting he's anywhere near ready yet)... Bellamy.

I thought this was going to be about Tom Wilson.

[Major Tom]

Why?

 

The give away was the name "Harry" before "Wilson", in the title.

Isn't any game with Coleman as manager pointless?

Harry is just an alias.

Not at all. It's valuable experience fro him as well and hopefully he will utilise it.

 

What do you reckon about the Bellamy in as manager stories going round?

As long as he had a good, knowledgeable coach alongside him then it could work. He's certainly more inspiring than Coleman.

I'm no expect on the Welsh national team and I love Bellamy but that sounds a disaster waiting to happen if it occurs

So an improvement on Coleman.

[RedKnight]

Didn't get on tonight. The result far more important for Coleman as he tries to cling on to a job.

[sir roger]

Seems England are trying to get him to declare for them under the 5 years rule.

 

I'll be honest, I keep one eye on the Academy & I had barely even heard his name mentioned.

[MLB]

This lad hasn't even played for the U21s yet (as far as I know) and England and Wales are fighting over him. Bizarre.

The club, to its credit, does a decent job of trying to keep those who are under 16 out of the public eye.  Yan Dhanda and Seyi Ojo are the only exceptions I can think of, and both were due to the media (not the club) publicising them due to their price tags.

 

Wilson is clearly being used in some sort of bizarre political ploy by Coleman ("it's not my fault - look, the team has so many injuries I'm forced to call up a 16 year old!") and I hope that the attention doesn't damage his prospects.  I've seen him play twice now, and he looks a decent player, but it's not as if he were banging down the door to be moved up to the U21s yet.  A good player at U18 level, and he's already ahead of the curve to be there; a callup to the full national team is ridiculous right now.

[sir roger]

Got on tonight & became Wales' youngest player ( beat Bale by 108 days apparently )
