2M down a further 3M is in stages of payments based on games played. Seems a lot for an 18 year old centre back, so presumably he's a player with outstanding promise? Also I presume he is a Scottish U21 international?

I think that you will find that Scottish U21 football is about the same standard as Reading Sunday League Division 5.

The press are now raving about Wilson. I've never heard of him until yesterday when he agreed to sign for Liverpool.

Surely if he was that good, Chelsea or United would have snapped him up.

Ronaldinho fails to report back to Milan and instead joins 50 Cent on stage at a concert in Brazil.

According to the Italian press this stunt has all but sealed his move to LA Galaxy

Like the way that Chelsea snapped up Benayoun when he was 18 you mean...

Saw him a couple of times on TV last season and he looks a strong boy.
The last young Scottish defenders signed by Liverpool included Hansen,Gillespie and Stevie Nicol who weren't too shabby so let's see how he does over the next few years.

Wilson is a decent player, came in at times last season and played well but didn't start all that much. Very young for a centre back too, definitely a prospect - rangers need money badly so thats not a bad price for either party.

I think it was rather insightful of Joe Cole to admit that "moving to Liverpool was a no-brainer".
