[ He half yells this through the continued high-pitched screech of tearing metal; Luke's maneuver was good, but the moment the drone got its legs into the ship it was probably a futile one. It also threw Steve's right side against the panel next to him, and it's presumably this that colors his statement with the shortness of pained irritation, but both the tone and impact are easily missed right now. One would think he preferred it that way.
He doesn't give Luke any instruction to keep the Phoenix steady, and if Wedge is looking for a measure of faith in their pilot, there it is. Granted, there's no small measure of the fact that he'd go out there even if he had less than full confidence, but nevertheless the understanding that Luke will capably attempt to keep Steve from getting thrown off is implicit enough as he moves back toward the armory for a rifle, going past Bucky without looking in his direction. ]
