Solid signering. Kan bidra med en sårt tiltrengt dødballfot og kreativitet. Har vel hatt sin beste sesong i PL nå nettopp, satser på at han peaker nå.

Velkommen Harry!

Klassesignering for en klubb som oss, og nok en gang en potensielt genial free transfer.

Første intervjuet.

Endelig! Noen som husker første året han ble linket til Leeds? Må begynne å bli mange år siden. Og siden har han vært linket hvert eneste år.

...det sagt (om playoff-semien), men:
Harry Wilson on his visit to ER with Derby -

"To this day that's the best atmosphere I've ever played in. When they scored the first goal I struggled to hear myself think"

Wilson is a left-footed attacker, who liked to drift in from the right flank at Fulham, either creating or scoring goals as he came into central positions. He noted the 3-4-2-1 formation Leeds finished last season in and the success he had playing as one of the two behind the striker in that set-up, both with Wales and Fulham.



Om Farke:
"Speaking with the manager here, he's told me I'm a player he's watched for years and tried to get me at a couple of clubs in the past and obviously last summer as well. To have a manager, when he isn't your manager, who watches you from the outside, that's important.

"I hope when I start to work with him on a day-to-day basis, I can show him what he's seen from afar is true and hopefully we can do good things together."

Spilletid!
(Først forrige sesong fikk han plenty med det!)
Playing time was a crucial factor in Wilson's decision at 29, too. Last season, his 17 goal involvements dwarfed the tallies of seven, 10 and five he mustered in the previous three campaigns.

When he's asked for the secret of his recent success, he says it's simple. There was no tactical sorcery from Marco Silva that unlocked him. It came down to starting games and staying on until the dying stages.

He says a lot of his goals and assists came in the latter stages of matches. When he spoke to Sky Sports in the winter about his future, he said: "Wherever I am, it's got to be somewhere where I'm going to play."
