What a superb centre back this lad is developing into.
He has looked a class act just recently.

He’s been very good of late and I think having the experienced Jagielka next to him talking helps as well

It was superb business and exactly how our recruitment policy should be, what did he cost a couple of million? Still only 22 and has 100 Championship games and some Premier League/Serie A experience under his belt.......

Totally agree.
He had a very good game.

His uplift in performance seems to tie in with Jags coming back into the team.

He's the future along with Harry, at the heart of our defence.

MOM pretty easily I thought.
Could have been a really tough game against a strong awkward opponent but he put him in his pocket and totally dominated him.
That set the platform for the overall dominance we had.

He always tries to play forward and be progressive. It doesn't always come off, but fair play to the lad for keeping going and trying to get us moving up the pitch. Got good feet as well for a centre half. Good player.

I’ve been impressed with him for quite a while. He’s come on so much with Jagielka supporting him in defence. Not afraid to get forward either. Just needs to tidy up some of his passing and he’s certainly going to be a complete baller.

Like with Shawcross, the right partner brings out the best in a CB.
I actually think we saw the best of Wilmot when he was next to Souttar. I think he likes an organiser next to him.

Played well so far this season. Playing players in their best position works shock!

Seems to have responded well to Alex Neill. Actually (never thought I'd say this) but so does Fox.

Been our best player all season. No without mistakes but his general level of play has been excellent. Very good feet for a CB deals with the ball really well and always looking to be positive with it. He's probably not going to be your cup of tea if you judge a player on the mistakes they make rather than their contribution to the team.

A top game today and at the end came into the crowd at the end just below us and gave his shirt to a child.
Top game top man

He's probably not going to be your cup of tea if you judge a player on the mistakes they make rather than their contribution to the team. You often hear managers asking players to think forward, try and play and if you do I'll take the flack if it doesn't work. He is the epitome of that, he looks for a pass and we only need one or two to pay off per game. It seems like his pass completion is low because they are generally positive passes not side to side. Thought he almost played as a DM for periods today when Thompson was higher up. Carried it yards everytime the midfield emptied out. |

Never understood the panning he gets, he’s a good player and never hides.
95% of centre-backs in this league have a clanger in them, if they didn’t then they wouldn’t be playing in the Championship.

I also thought Wilmot was our best defender today, but he needs to stop making those dangerous passes out of defence. This happened a couple of times in the first half, and to be honest it happens almost every gamme too. Still I think he has become a very good central defender, but as said this is something he needs to get rid of in his game.  |

When you look at stats for championship CB’s progressing the ball he’s as good as it gets. Some of our fans seem to have a dislike of him but I’ve little doubt that for AN he’s one of the first names on his teamsheet. As I’ve referred to him in another post he’s the heartbeat of this team. |

Was it Wilmot with the excellent progressive ball out to Hoever for the goal?

Was it Wilmot with the excellent progressive ball out to Hoever for the goal? Looked like it mate, rolled along nice and pinpoint to Hoever. Still can't get over the goal, Vidigal took it so well. |

For what it's worth, on transfermkt he's by far our most valuable player (ahead of any loan players) at £6m.
I remember checking a while ago and being slightly shocked. But if I checked today I'd be less so. Excellent player who should only get better. 23 is still rather young, CBs arguably don't peak until after 30.
