He knows that. He means that having him here, doing very little, was a wasted opportunity to promote / develop one of our own young players.

Nice. I bet he's got a swanky flat in a smart condo, with absolutely no furniture.

It has been debated to death on here, and elsewhere, and who knows what the full story is (and I'm not suggesting we have any RIGHT to know), but I'm absolutely convinced that a lack of DESIRE to work was not Wilson's problem. You simply can't file him with wage-thieves like Best and Agustien.

Whilst I've spelled out my reasons in this thread why it's a definite NO from me, I think your assertion is a little unfair on Wilson. He definitely had some real fitness issues that held him back (possibly stress / nerve related?) but after that New Year game where he chucked up before kick...
