Wilson can cut it

He's making quite a name for himself is young Wilson Palacios.

The Honduran midfielder, as Steve Bruce told the Birmingham Mail, continues to impress on a daily basis.

Bruce likened Palacios to a young Paul Ince.

And his goal against West Ham United's reserves was compared to Archie Gemmill's famous solo effort at the 1978 World Cup (the high spot of an hilarious campaign by our friends north of the border).

Praise indeed.

If not from his football, Palacios can be easily identified on the pitch by his bright yellow boots.

And but for a spur of the moment decision, his mop of shaggy hair would have been a trademark as well.

Palacios decided to shave it all off the night before his debut at Liverpool, and all by himself.

It left his team mates in stitches as he had missed great big clumps of it.
