Brilliant in win
Wilson scored one goal to go with six shots (two on goal), five crosses (one accurate) and four corners in Saturday's 3-1 victory against Burnley.
Analysis: Wilson had himself a day on Saturday, scoring one while recording two shots on goal, two tackles won with one key pass and one successful dribble against Burnley. This is just part of a successful season for Fulham, recording 10 goals and six assists in 29 appearances.
Two shots in return
Wilson recorded two shots (zero on goal), three crosses (one accurate) and two corners in Sunday's 0-0 draw versus Nottingham Forest.
Analysis: Wilson, who missed the last two matches with an ankle injury, made his return to the pitch Sunday. He took two shots, created one chance and recorded three crosses on the attack, one of the most productive attackers on the pitch in the scoreless draw. He also intercepted two passes, blocked one shot and won one tackle before he was subbed off in the 91st minute for Ryan Sessegnon.
Fit to start
Wilson (ankle) is in the starting XI for Sunday's match against Nottingham Forest.
Analysis: Wilson was likely to be an option for Sunday, and that has led to the attacker's return, already fit enough to find the starting XI immediately. This is huge news after two games out, as he is their top attacker, likely to continue in a starting role. He does have 15 goal contributions in 27 appearances this season, a career-high for a season for the winger.
Should return against Forest
Wilson (ankle) should be back available for Sunday's clash against Nottingham Forest, the player said to the media, according to BBC. "I'm good. I had a bit of a knock after the Spurs game, which took a week or so to go, but I'm back training now, so I'm hoping I'll be good to go for Sunday and definitely good to go for the Wales games."
Analysis: Wilson sat out the last two matches after picking up an ankle knock against Tottenham, but the winger is pushing to be available again for Sunday's clash with Forest. His return would be a major boost for the Cottagers since he is a locked-in starter in the front line and will look to regain that role if he's cleared for the game. Wilson has scored nine goals and added six assists across 27 appearances (25 starts) this season, putting together the best Premier League campaign of his career so far.
Unlikely vs. Southampton
Wilson (ankle) is not expected to be available for Sunday's game against Southampton, according to manager Marco Silva. "He was on the grass this morning [Thursday]. Let's see how he's going to react. He was there, doing individual work, not involved with the team, but doing the individual rehabilitation. Let's see how he's going to react tomorrow, [and] what is going to be the next step for him. Probably right now, if you ask me, he's probably not going to be in contention for Sunday, but we have some days until the game, and probably can have some news on Saturday."
Analysis: Wilson didn't play in midweek against West Ham United after picking up a knock against Tottenham, and since he's yet to join full training, his chances of playing over the weekend are slim. The winger has been one of Fulham's best players this season, tallying 10 goals and seven assists across 29 appearances (25 starts) between Premier League and FA Cup. Oscar Bobb and Samuel Chukwueze are options to start if Wilson can't go Sunday.
Stays on sidelines
Wilson (ankle) is out for Wednesday's match against West Ham.
Analysis: Wilson is not going to be with the team and risk his ankle injury, with the attacker instead taking a match to rest the injury. They return to play Sunday in Cup play against Sunderland, likely holding him out until then and trying to keep a trophy chance alive.
Late call to face Hammers
Wilson (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's match against West Ham, according to manager Marco Silva, per Jon Harland of the Hounslow Herald. "Harry is one of the players that I said we have to keep assessing them and see. Tomorrow we are going to take some important decisions related with the game, and with the squad list and with the starting XI, and for sure we have some players to assess and after taking decisions."
Analysis: Wilson is going to need to face some testing for Wednesday's outing after an injury in the club's last match, taking a knock to his ankle. This will require the attacker to be a late call, a bit concerning when he is viewed as their top option in the attack. If he tests fit, the attacker will look to see the start immediately, with Samuel Chukwueze and Oscar Bobb likely to start on the attacking flanks if he is not.
Picks up ankle injury
Wilson is in question for Wednesday's match after suffering an ankle injury, according to manager Marco Silva, per Jack Kelly of Fullhamish. "He twisted the ankle, let's see how he's going to be in the next few days."
Analysis: Wilson looks to be set for some testing as he prepares quickly for a match on Wednesday, suffering from an apparent ankle knock. With nine goals and six assists this season, this would be a rough loss, even for a match, a critical part of their attack. If he were to miss further time, Samuel Chukwueze and Oscar Bobb would likely start on the attacking flanks.
Assists with lone chance created
Wilson had an assist with his lone chance created while taking two shots (one on goal), crossing five times (one accurate) and creating a chance during Sunday's 3-1 win over Sunderland.
Analysis: Wilson set up Alex Iwobi in the 85th minute while leading Fulham in both shots and crosses during the victory. The assist was the first goal involvement since January 24th for the attacker as he's combined for four shots, three chances created and 13 crosses over his last three league appearances.
Leads team in crosses Saturday
Wilson generated one shot (zero on goal), five crosses (two accurate) and two corners in Saturday's 2-1 loss against Everton.
Analysis: Wilson was held off the score sheet for the second straight game despite playing the full match and being fairly active on the right flank. He recorded more than three crosses for the third time since moving back to the wing after making a few appearances in a central spot. While he continues to split corner kicks with Alex Iwobi, Wilson has been unable to provide assists lately. Still, his 12 goal involvements remain the highest total on the squad over the current league season.
Extends hot streak with goal
Wilson scored one goal to go with three shots (two on goal), four crosses (one accurate) and four corners in Saturday's 2-1 victory over Brighton.
Analysis: Wilson has been Fulham's best player this season, and the star winger came through when the team needed him the most and scored the game-winning goal in stoppage time with a perfect free kick. Wilson is in the midst of a hot streak and has tallied six goals and four assists over his last 11 Premier League outings.
Two shots in defeat
Wilson recorded two shots (zero on goal), two crosses (one accurate) and one corner in Saturday's 1-0 defeat versus Leeds United. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 56th minute.
Analysis: Wilson fired a minimum of two shots for a sixth consecutive appearance and is up to totals of 19 shots and eight shots on target over that span, with this being the first of those outings where he finished without a shot on target. This also marked his second straight match accounting for three chances created, and his third consecutive match with at least one accurate cross.
Scores Sunday
Wilson scored one goal to go with three shots (one on goal), three crosses (zero accurate) and two corners in Sunday's 2-2 draw against Liverpool. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 71st minute.
Analysis: Wilson scored against his former club to open the scoring in the first half. The attacking midfielder has come into his own this season and is off to an excellent start. He's earned more minutes throughout the season and continues to thrive in the expanded role. Barring an injury or major drop-off in form, Wilson should continue as a big part of the first team.
Assists Saturday
Wilson assisted once to go with two shots (one on goal), six crosses (three accurate) and two corners in Saturday's 1-0 victory over West Ham United. In addition, he was given a yellow card in the 54th minute.
Analysis: Wilson was busy Saturday, assisting the lone goal in the match while recording a shot on target, three key passes and a successful dribble. He's been key for Fulham's attack during the first half of the season, netting five goals and four assists, producing 18 key passes and winning nine tackles though 17 games played.
Starting against West Ham United
Wilson (knee) is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against West Ham.
Analysis: Wilson was doubtful to play throughout the week due to a knee problem he sustained after the win over Nottingham Forest, but the Welshman has been cleared to feature and will keep his place in the lineup. Wilson has been on a tear of late with three goals and three assists over his last five EPL outings.
Doubtful for Saturday
Wilson (knee) is in doubt for the trip to West Ham on Saturday. According to manager Marco Silva, "It was a big knock on the knee and it was painful. We are still assessing him and we will make a decision after the next session. I'm hopeful he can be available again because he's been crucial for us and is full of confidence".
Analysis: Wilson is likely to miss Saturday's match due to a knee injury sustained during Monday's game against Nottingham Forest. The injury appears to be a painful knock and not serious, suggesting a quicker-than-expected return. He had been on a great run prior to his injury, recording four goals and three assists within the last eight PL matches. If ruled out, Adama Traore is expected to start in his place on Saturday.
Needs to be assessed after knock
Wilson (undisclosed) was forced off in the 84th minute of Monday's 1-0 victory against Nottingham Forest due to a knock and needs to be assessed, although coach Marco Silva said he is going to be okay, according to Jack Kelly from Fulhamish. "Looks he's going to be okay. I think it was a big knock there, was not something that he twisted but now it's of course painful. But let's see, tomorrow we have a session, we are going to assess the players from tonight & see how he's going to recover."
Analysis: Wilson will be assessed on Tuesday after suffering a heavy knock late in Monday's victory against Nottingham Forest. The right winger does not appear to have twisted anything, but given the impact, further scans will be carried out to avoid any major setback. That said, if Wilson has to miss some time to recover, a change will be required, as he is an undisputed starter in the frontline for the Cottagers, with Adama Traore likely stepping into his spot until he returns.
Three goal contributions in win
Wilson scored one goal and assisted twice from two shots and three chances created in Saturday's 3-2 victory over Burnley.
Analysis: Wilson assisted Fulham's first two goals Saturday from a corner and a cross, respectively, before curling in a goal of his own in a 3-2 road victory over Burnley. Across his last five appearances (five starts), the attacker has attempted 18 crosses (six accurate) and 12 corners while creating seven chances, assisting three goals and scoring three times. Through just 15 appearances (13 starts), Wilson has attempted 50 crosses, marking a new career-high for cross attempts in a single Premier League campaign.
Nets against Palace
Wilson scored one goal to go with two shots (two on goal), four crosses (one accurate) and two corners in Sunday's 2-1 defeat versus Crystal Palace.
Analysis: Wilson found the back of the net during Sunday's loss, putting together a solid showing throughout the match. He sent in four crosses as well as taking a pair of crosses as well as taking a pair of shots. The attacking midfielder has been excellent when he's in the starting XI, including three goal contributions in the last three matches.
Records assist
Wilson assisted once to go with five crosses (one accurate) and two corners in Tuesday's 5-4 loss against Manchester City.
Analysis: Wilson earned an assist Tuesday, with the attacker finding Emile Smith Rowe just ahead of halftime for the club's first goal of the contest. This is his second straight game with a goal contribution, as he bagged a goal last time out. He is up to four goal contributions on the season in 13 appearances, likely to top his seven from last campaign.
