Jack Wilshere Archives: 12/2016

Manchester City is the latest club to be linked with a move for Jack Wilshere once his loan spell at Bournemouth is complete.

With the majority of Europe’s top leagues on a winter break at the moment, only players in England featured over Boxing Day.

Bournemouth travel to Stamford Bridge on Boxing Day and Arsenal loanee, Jack Wilshere, hopes his team can put an end to Chelsea’s winning streak.

After 901 minutes of Premier League football under Eddie Howe, Jack Wilshere created his first assist in Bournemouth colours.

Jack Wilshere’s favourite player at Arsenal is none other than Santi Cazorla.

Jack Wilshere has now racked up more minutes for Bournemouth while on loan than for Arsenal during the last couple of seasons.

Jack Wilshere made the headlines on Tuesday evening for all the right reasons: starting against Leicester meant he had played more Premier League minutes on loan on the south Coast this season than the previous two injury-ravaged campaigns at Arsenal, just reiterating how beneficial his loan spell away from the Emirates has been thus far.

There were a few rare starts for some of Arsenal’s players out on-loan in the Netherlands, with Kelechi Nwakali impressing once more but the majority of players either were unused substitutes or didn’t feature in matchday squads at all on Saturday.

Jack Wilshere has won Bournemouth’s Player of the Month award by a landslide: 71% of the votes.

Bournemouth fans declared Liverpool captain, Jordan Henderson, as just a s**t Jack Wilshere – and that was before the Cherries completed the most unlikely of comebacks.

Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher has publicly stated his belief that Jack Wilshere should opt against signing a new contract with Arsenal, where his progress as a player could be hindered by competition for midfield places in north London.

It was a mixed afternoon for the creative midfielder, who was heavily involved defensively for large periods but adapted accordingly when Bournemouth had momentum on their side with a two-goal deficit to overturn.

A few of Arsenal’s loanees featured this weekend, with Wojciech Szczesny earning a clean sheet for Roma and Takuma Asano creating an assist during a routine VfB Stuttgart win the highlights.

If you’re one of the people complaining that we haven’t or won’t recall Jack Wilshere from his loan spell at Bournemouth, listen up.

Despite what Jack Wilshere appears to have been implying recently about his Arsenal future, the midfielder now seems to have hinted that he could be returning to north London after all.
