Wilshere must play for a deal
ARSENE WENGER has told Jack Wilshere to prove he is worth a new contract after the Gunners midfielder’s latest setback.
Wilshere, farmed out on loan to Bournemouth last season, was sent off for Arsenal’s Under-23 development side against Manchester City earlier this week as he launched his comeback from an ankle fracture.
Wenger sympathised with Wilshere’s retaliation after he was clattered by a poor challenge, but said: “If he gets back to his best and wants to stay, we have to sit down later in the season. At 25, he needs to play and I can’t guarantee him that today. I think I’m quite open on that.”
