International Career
He won his first England cap in a 3-0 win over Hungary in 1996. After a great debut, in which he hit the bar in the first minute, many tipped him to make the final squad for Euro96, however Wilcox was left at home after being cut from the final squad of 24 players in what Terry Venables described as one of the toughest decisions of his career. He went on to play against France and Argentina. These turned out to be his only 3 caps. He also made the squad for Euro 2000 but did not play through injury. He made two appearances for the B team, against Chile and Hong Kong. Wilcox was once seen by many as the answer to England's Left-Wing problems, however he rarely got opportunities to impress, due to a long list of injuries, which some say restricted his potential as a player.
