We've tested him at the championship level, and he excelled, he is a first-team player, and unlikely to get regular appearances for Liverpool - at least this way, we can measure whether or not he is fit for the EPL. If we do not buy anymore players, he was likely to get games, our MF is not very creative really, Wilson delivers goals form MF and is good at free kicks (something our current MF players do not do - Keita may do this but is still unproven for us), he's definitely worth a place on the bench, so I think he would have got appearances. He can also play from the wings, so would be useful if we lost Salah or Mane (not as good, but can do a job, similar to Origi not being as good). As he is a left footed winger, we already have 2 better players in that position, ie, Salah and Shaq, so good to send him on loan. We need a right footed winger though as we only have Mane, unless Ox is going to be that player. We could use him as a left footer on the left wing as cover for Mane (we are struggling to cover Mane)

Wilson would definitely have got games.
People have mentioned the ox, he has looked no where near the player he used to be before he got injured.
Is Shaqiri really any better than Wilson? I would say they are much of a muchness, the fact Klopp hardly played Shaqiri in the 2nd half of last season factors in as well.
Wilson will excel out on loan.
Could anyone imagine Fergus sending one of his young kids out at loan to a Prem club after they had already proved themselves on loan?
Beckham went on loan to Preston and was then given the chance at Man Utd, Fergus would never have sent him on loan to Everton after he did the business at Preston, Fergus took a chance and have him games, this is what we should be doing with Wilson.
This looks to be more a case of profiteering to me.
Probably a loan fee of 8million turned the heads of FSG. And 7.5million for Kent. err.. yeah... Shaq is better than both Kent and Wilson.... next???

Shaquiri has 2 champions league medals from 2 different teams. Kent and Wilson haven't even managed to achieve what he did at Stoke as the best player in a midtable prem side. Shaquiri won all there is to win in Germany: Champions league, Bundisliga, DFB Pokal, Club World Cup. He won leagues in Switzerland, and has been a standout performer for his country. He's been playing in European competition since 2009, apart from 3 years at Stoke.
