Wilson has been single-handedly deciding Championship games (and Cup games against PL opposition) for around 1 & 1/2 years now. Yet, somehow strangely, a large section of fans consider Brewster higher up in the order without much of basis at all. It's just assumed so and people underplay Wilson as if he's done nothing of note so far. It's just bizarre. What I'd say is he's horribly under-rated by our fans. For an academy player, this behavior is a major shock to me, especially considering someone like Ibe who didn't have football brains and not half the talent of Wilson was hyped to bits.
Wilson was a huge talent when he was 16 as well. In fact, he was the youngest ever debutante for Wales (not sure if Woodburn broke that record). But people somehow place a lot of other current teenagers comfortably ahead of him with no evidence so far at all. I think Jones is as big a talent as any, and even he has work to do in his next few years to get to where Wilson is now.
This is what I found from Derby forum - a comment on his rough patch/form in the middle of this season. To what people call as disappearing -
"Yes he is out of form, BUT certainly recently he's been kicked all over the park with minimal protection from the Refs. What I really admire about him is his absolute discipline to just get up and play. No sign of afters against whoever smacked him!"
It's clear he's being targeted and teams usually target a team's best/important player.
This stint will be a big experience for him. He has had an overall successful season & Derby might make the play-offs as well. As a player, this experience would've also helped him know where he has done well & where he has not. Next target is to use him, or send him to a good coach where he will get tactical education, because the tools are all there for everyone to see.
