Mainly a left-back but could perhaps be described more accurately as a utility player because he can slot as comfortably into the midfield or left-wing and he is a natural attacking player blessed with fine passing skills. He signed for Spurs on a free transfer from QPR in June 1995. The 34-year-old Manchester-born Wilson started his career with his home town club Manchester City after being spotted playing junior football. From there he joined Chelsea in March 1987 for �250,000 but neever firmly established himself with the west London club, although he did win a then Second Division championship medal with them in the 1988-89 season, before moving to Loftus Road in July 1990 for �450,000. His carrer is enjoying somehting of a renaissance and while his signing for Spurs caused a few eyebrows to be raised he has taken the opportunity with both hands to force his way into the team.
