It's not just a matter of "how good is he" but attributes. He's just about our only player with any pace and that has already proved effective against tiring legs. I don't think even Sven really thought Darius Vassell was amongst the best 4-5 England strikers, but he kept picking him in squads...
You know what I mean, he must have a knock or want to reward Wilson's patience/form in training etc.
Cos lets face it, if the question is: DO YOU WANT TO GET INTO THE PLAYOFFS AND WHO IS CLEARLY OUR BEST KEEPER, it's a pretty fucking obvious answer.
