    For whatever reason, possibly connected to the player stating, "I'm not interested in joining them", Jonny Evans is set to snub Arsenal and join the gypos. Guess we need to set our sights a bit lower.

    He may have had some talent at one point in his career but he's been crap for ages after throwing all his talent away. Fuck it, he couldn't shine at Bournemouth despite going on a (for him at least) injury free run.

    Ramsey & Xhaka are far more naturally talented players .... and that's saying something. And also two players who'd benefit a lot more from proper coaching than a coward like Jack. The only reason he's been kept around for so long is that he's been one of Wenger's favourites and like the Ox, Wenger's desperate not to admit he failed on him.

    Like the Ox .... good riddance. Probably won't realise how good he had it here until he's long left. Just a shame we didn't milk the Gypos for 40 million plus a few years back when he still had some market value.

    Not that's it's likely to happen but it frees up a shit load of wages (allegedly another undeserved high earner on 100k +++) that we could use on a Draxler or Seri.

    Jack does have some talent but he's an idiot. He has an obsession with getting his head down and dribbling, kind of similar to Ramsey's obsession with bombing forward to score goal. He's also as much of a defensive liability as Ramsey and Xhaka and doesn't offer enough in the final third.

    Although you lose points for saying "manager" rather than "human", that would have been better.

    Eddie Howe didn't get anything out of Wilshere that Wenger didn't

    Whilst I agree that young players are no longer developing under Wenger, I think it might have to be accepted that Wilshere like a lot of promising young stars is just a cunt.

    Whilst you can't take anecdotal evidence as comprehensive, I have spoken to different people who know him and know of him and the verdict is the same chavvy little thug.

    Now either they are all talking shit (possible I guess) or he just is a turd who doesn't have it in him to reach his own potential.

    Arsenal have no interest in Mahrez according to Ornstein. (who also says West Brom rejected Mustafi).

    Wilshere has more talent than Xhaka and Ramsey. He just can't stay fit and has lost his focus. One of the brightest youth prospects we had and looked like the real deal when he was a kid.

    Wilshere is one of those players who has been greatly overrated, he's had a handful of good games in his entire career and is always injured. The great English hope hasn't turned out to be, lacks discipline, not motivated enough, gives away possession too much in bad places, can't tackle and runs into players rather than releasing the ball when he should.

    Hopefully he goes as it would be no great loss, hardly pulled any trees out of the ground at Bournemouth either, we gave him big contracts before he proved anything which is probably not a good thing either, as someone said should have taken the cash a few years back when we were offered a decent amount.

    City offered 50m only two years ago but we turned it down. He was injured the following year before joining Bournemouth!

    Terrible management.

    Definitely he has more talent than them, but if he can't stay fit or perform well when he does it means very little

    I think Wenger has ruined or misused a lot of decent players in the last five-ten years

    His biggest sin with Wilshere is being too patient with him
