Arsene Wenger praise for creative Jack Wilshere

BATE Borisov 2 - Arsenal 4: Arsene Wenger praised Jack Wilshere’s “outstanding” contribution to Arsenal’s 4-2 Europa League victory at BATE Borisov.

On the same day the midfielder was omitted from the latest England squad — at a time when they are short of options in his favoured position — he consistently demonstrated the vision and creativity that once made him such a promising talent.

Aged 25 he is attempting to recover a place in Wenger’s starting XI and earn an extension to the contract that expires at the season’s end, but having recovered his fitness, at the Borisov Arena in Belarus he proved he still has much to offer.
