Ha ha ha - Niasse levels of scouting there!
Jags..class
Player Valuation: £70m
This most cause upset but I wouldn't mind seeing us buy new full backs over the next 12 months
As do Gibson and Besic?
The stats demonstrate that Wilshere cannot stay fit.
They further demonstrate that when he IS fit for an entire season, he's not quite as good as Jonjo Shelvey (2013/14 saw Shelvey record six goals and eight assists for Swansea), even though he has been surrounded by better players than Shelvey has for his entire career.
Wilshere is the epitome of hype over substance. Absolutely nothing of worth there as a prem-level footballer. He's had at least ten more starts than James McCarthy this season, played 700 minutes more than McCarthy and they have recorded exactly the same number of goals and assists.
When Jonjo Shelvey is better than you, and James McCarthy does just as much as you in half the time, you aren't a gifted attacking footballer.
Ben Davies shouts incoming.
Tony Hibbert's 3rd leg

Scored.
Son would be great playing off Rom
Indeed he does. It appears Koeman has identified Schneiderlin as a likely candidate, and I would love to see him join us.
If I wanted a specifically attack-minded midfielder, I'd have Joe Allen come in before I even acknowledged Wilshere's existence (Allen currently has five goals and four assists this season).
I'd sign Claudio Yacob or Etienne Capoue to play alongside Gana before I'd even contact Wilshere's agent.
Rather have Trippier if you're talking Spurs full backs
Tony Hibbert's 3rd leg

Good lad. Was part of his game that needed to get better.
That's your opinion mate. Personally I think wilshire would add a lot to us. But everyone has their own views on things
Maybe. But I wouldn't be prepared to risk a transfer fee on it, because
a) he's never proved able to do it before
b) he's highly unlikely to stay fit for more than 20 games at a time
On a free transfer, with a contract that ties his wage in very closely to him staying fit (essentially a pay-as-you-play).... maybe. But realistically, Jack the Lad needs to be playing in a far less physically-demanding league. I can see Italy or China as his likely destinations if he leaves Arsenal permanently.
I'm intrigued mate. What do you think Wilshere could add, and what do you base that opinion on? Do you see him as a box to box type, suitable for a 433 / 442, or as a DM in a 4231, or the 10 in a 4231? Or something else?
