I just looked at his stats

just checked his stats with us.

Started 10 and finished 4

Subbed on 4

Unused sub 2

Goals 2

Assists 7(three in a game)

He only played 90 mins 4 times for us. I would have thought it would have been more. Going by his assists he was clearly capable. 7 in 14 is a decent effort. So why so little game time.As I said. We saw a good player and flashes of brilliance. Did he get a fair crack at it. I say its highly debateable

Good work on the stats. Anyone with 2 eyes could see he was a class act even from the glimpses we had - his control, dribbling, vision and shooting was top drawer. He should’ve been playing every minute we had him for.

We need a player like that now - I would give Wilson the game time to see if he can do it - his touch, control and dribbling is better than anything else we’ve got presently. However McInnes prefers someone like Ferguson or Bryson there who are going to put in a shift in midfield, or someone like May who could man mark the opposition sitting midfielder.

I remember when Maddison played for us the majority of people on here said he was pish.

Personally I thought he was decent but very raw,he is clearly a far better player now.

He was in and out of the team but it wasn’t until he went back to Norwich that we started playing well,it wasn’t until the second half of the season that we started to be consistent.

Absolutely.
There was no doubt he had talent, but clearly he needed to toughen up and there is no doubt he benefited from his 6 months with us.

James Wilson has failed to score in 7 games for us.

Still waiting to see this powerful shot he supposedly has.

Well I suppose your counting all games, not just league, so......

James Wilson has failed to score in 150 minutes across 7 games
Rooney scored once against Aston Villa U-21’s in 493 minutes across 8 games

Yes, against an U-21 team and having played 343 more minutes

How about Rory McArdle though?
