Wenger: Wilshere feeling the pain

Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has admitted England midfielder Jack Wilshere is “down” and hinted that he is losing his race against time to return for the European Championships in June.

Wilshere, 20, has spent the entire season on the sidelines after undergoing surgery on his injured ankle last September.

The midfielder has yet to train with the first team and is still confined to training by himself in the gym.
