Jack Wilshere: Where to now?

[GDeep™]

Used to be gutted for lads who got injured, especially the talented guys, but couldn't give a toss anymore.

Should have been sold last summer

Even Bournemouth won't buy him.

Not sure if it is the same bone/part of the leg but this type of injury is a pain in the ass.

Basically, I got tackled /hit hard in the same area lower leg/above ankle right on the bone in late 2013. Fractured the bone. Let it recover fully, not much rehab you can do for the healing apart from rest. I then suffered a hairline fractured/bad bone bruise in the same area in November 2015, and then again in February 2016.

Basically, it depends how your body recovers and even though you are able to return to play at a certain time ie July for Jack, the bone doesn't regain full strength or heal completely for months/years. Subsequently every hard knock or something that wouldn't usually be more than a bruise or ache can cause a small fracture in the bone.

At least they chose the right option of a "30 days trial" instead of going cash and carry having to return a lemon.

 

[Lookin' for a new Baby]

Have Bournemouth said they don't want to buy him?

 

[Stumped]

He should take the chance to move abroad while he's still young. Clearly his body isn't fit for the rigour of PL football but the talent is still superb and in Italy or Spain he can start over. I get the feeling he was just happy to get on the pitch at Bournemouth but it didn't really provide much significance as his and the team's performances were wildly hit and miss.

Wenger said he had a new deal ready for Jack, so I don't know who they were going to sign.

 

[GDeep™]

Time to accept he is our new Diaby. Sad.

 

[GDeep™]

I don't want to cross a line, but I feel Jack is probably finished as someone who you can rely and build around.

Arsène was just waiting for a serious injury before offering him new terms.

Looks like more of the same for long-suffering Arsenal fans. They thing one match of 343 formation is enough to see there is serious change!

 

[tap-in]

I love Jack as a player but there comes a time when enough is enough. He's never going to be able to play in the PL for any length of time. Going abroad could be a good option, China would be perfect for him as both are fragile!

 

[silent_shadow]

Aside from the injury proneness and not being the player we wanted him to be, I don't want us to offer a contract to someone who showed no desire to sign one with us (even though we put the offer out) before he got injured.

 

[rich 1990]

We've wasted more on wages for injured players than the GDP of a small country. It must be very hard to sell a talented player but when is enough, enough.

Wilshere, Ramsey, Cazorla, Welbeck

Well, we have to keep the squad cost up somehow.

I don't want to cross a line, but I feel Jack is probably finished as someone who you can rely and build around.

or did he cross that line in 2011/12 or 2014/15?

 

[YeahBee]

No joking mate. He's got to pass a medical somewhere.

we should buy a team in the MSL where we can send some of our guys so they don't take up squad space

No way. We've spent enough already.

[hydrofluoric acid]

Don't see any room for him here anymore and I doubt Wilshere him self sees he could be starting player here anymore either.

Its over. Done. Finito.

If that's true I f*****g hate Wenger - that's on a par with giving Mertesacker a new contract - we really are Charity FC‎ - Wilshere's a nice guy but needs to be shipped out ffs
