Kilman was fantastic last night!!! Salah is a world class striker. Kilman who has had very few PL minutes absolutely nullified his threat. Well done that man.

if we keep giving kilman game time here and there I personally think 2 seasons time he will be an absolute gem.
The game last night was overshadowed by VAR people are forgetting we didnt play our full strength squad we left 2 of our best players on the bench for most of it— RiZzleBizzle (@ZzleRi) December 30, 2019
Can Max Kilman become as good as Willy Boly for the Old Gold?Yes, he has great potentialNo, will never be that standard |
During this season, the 22-year-old defender has featured in ten games for the Old Gold in all competitions, in which he completed the full 90 minutes in each one (as per Transfermarkt).
With a sturdy 6.97/10 average rating for this term (per Whoscored), Wolves fans were pleased with the development that their man was making even though he is not yet near his full potential.
I think Kilman had a great night. When the team list came out there was audible groans from everyone but I think they surprised us how well they played. People were expecting Liverpool to run rings around us and for us to get thrashed when the team list went up.

Saiss has been fantastic in defense for us? and he has fantastic passing range, is good from set pieces and even has a decent shot in him.. Kilman is very good, but is well behind Saiss in the pecking order

What do we think?
Kilman is showing definite, strong signs of improvement under Nuno Espirito Santo and becoming a really good squad option for the Old Gold, with more experience under his belt who knows how good the Englishman could become.
