simplythemostimportantkick Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 If SS career was to develop (rapidly or unrealistically) to the point where one of the big boys from Manchester or Liverpool cage calling , for example, I wonder if his homesickness would be cured ? Sounds to me like he’s a bit of a softy and maybe chosen the wrong career path ? He has the talent undoubtedly (to be a pro) but has he the mental strength to have a successful career ? I’d be doubtful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yarddog73 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 It's not totally inconceivable that Bournemouth just wanted their player back because of the managerial situation at the club, Howe obviously rates the lad and he has a duty to protect him with a view to the future, I'm sure Howe was on the phone to Bunn for an heads up and there were also rumours he wasn't a great fan of AL coming into the dressing room and I've heard that off more than one person, it's certainly not something he'd be used to at Bournemouth. Whatever has gone on Howe probably think it's best he sees out the remainder of the season with them and given their current league position he might be given some game time if they are safe in mid table going into the last couple of weeks.

Ritchierich Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 I honestly don’t know why anyone cares, Surridge had no interest in us other than to further his career, likewise, I have zero interest in him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree with your first bit but disagree with your 2nd bit! Continued 1st team football each week for a further 4 months rather than sub appearances/youth team football would not only improve him as a player but also make him a much more sellable asset If Bournemouth wanted to shift him in the summer.

Doubt the management situation would have made much difference if that did play a part then surely he would have gone out on loan to a club that didn't have these problems. He had enough suitors. As has been said I think the most likely scenario was homesickness. Edited February 1, 2019 by GlossopLatic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sounds like Howe likes him and reckon there's a good chance Wilson will move on in summer so you never know, they might see him figuring. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think he's a long way off Premiership level at present - more likely try to get him at least half of next season in the Championship.

latics22 Posted February 1, 2019 Share Posted February 1, 2019 His injury was nothing to do with home sickness, why would he have come back if that was the case. He was prob carrying an injury and needed time to recover, he looked absolute class to me. Can see him playing at the highest level including England, pace and amazing balance along with good finishing and determination to drop down to league two and play in a shit storm. A lot of pampered prem players wouldn’t do that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needs to bulk up a bit which he will as he gets older, lets hope he doesn't lose his pace in the process Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was presumably told he was coming to us on loan and hardly gave the impression he wanted to stay And as for England, you never know but scoring against league 2 defenders is a long way from that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kusunga_Is_God Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 The lad is talented no doubt but after August he had no desire to wear the shirt or represent us. Hence why he ran home after Bradford. Great player but if he doesn't like us then he can stick it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True and we wouldn't of gone through without him in much the same way I feel we'd of got something at Doncaster with him, no doubt he picked and choosed when he wanted to perform but he's a million times better than the other shite we've been left with and brought in recently, only hope is that one of the new lads hits the ground running.

I was referring more to his reaction after the game. He looked genuinely upset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
