Wilshere unlikely to face charges – but we can expect some revelations soon about England players! 0

Posted on August 30, 2010 by admin

The young Arsenal and England midfielder Jack Wilshere was arrested last night after being found by police at the scene of an assault on a young girl, who was taken to hospital with a suspected broken arm.

Wilshere was on a night out in Kensington celebrating Arsenal’s win at Blackburn when the “fracas” happened, but after questioning Wilshere’s agents, the Wasserman Media Group, released a statement saying that Jack was unlikely to face charges.

The statement read: “Jack Wilshere was arrested by police in the early hours following a fracas but was released on bail later.

Arsenal missing five midfielders and two strikers for Liverpool match 36

Arsenal are preparing for the first crucial match of the Premiership season, and the lack of fitness and injuries are leaving Arsene Wenger with a threadbare squad to choose from. We already know that Nicklas Bendtner will not be returning to the side for at least a couple of months, and Cesc Fabregas and Robin Van Persie have only just returned from their extended breaks.

“They are a lot behind,” said Wenger. “I hope Van Persie will have a good week of preparation, but I think he will be short as well.”

Capello calls up Gibbs, Wilshere and Walcott to new-look England squad 8

Posted on August 07, 2010 by admin

The England manager Fabio Capello has given his England squad a complete shake-up, and has dropped half the players that he took to South Africa for the disastrous World Cup campaign.

He has added Theo Walcott, who was so upset about being left behind in June, but also the two Arsenal youngsters Kieran Gibbs and Jack Wilshere have received their first ever call ups for their country. Both of them are over the moon at their unexpected selection, but Wilshere is keeping his feet on the ground, and admits that becoming a regular for Arsenal must remain his first target.

Transfer window summary – Every Gooner wants a new goalkeeper! 21

Here is another guest post from Scott Craig-Mackie, who has written a couple of previous posts for JustArsenal. He has composed a summary of the transfer window so far, and the nett result is – MINUS two players! But Scott is still hopeful for the new season with the youngsters like Wilshere and Frimpong moving up to the plate. Over to you Scott!

Let’s wrap up what has and hasn’t happened this transfer window for our beloved Gunners.

Arsenal v Celtic highlights – Gunners win Emirates Cup 3-2 8

Posted on August 02, 2010 by admin

Arsene Wenger is still waiting for a few of his senior midfielders to return (especially Cesc Fabregas), but the youngsters Jack Wilshere and Emmanuel Frimpong did well enough as cover.

Vela scored right at the start, and when Sagna made it 2-0 just before half-time it looked a clearcut win for Arsenal, and even more so when Nasri made it three.

But like against Milan, the young Gunners seemed to tire in the last 20 minutes, and conceded twice before the end. And if Samaras hadn’t missed a penalty it could have ended a draw!

Wenger – I won’t buy a midfielder now I know Wilshere and Frimpong can step up 14

Posted on August 02, 2010 by admin

The Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger saw his team win the Emirates Cup yesterday, and was pleased with the performance of the team, but especially the two youngsters, Jack Wilshere and Emmanuel Frimpong. So much so that he has decided to keep them with the senior squad this season instead of loaning them out again.

He was asked they had changed his mind for the season ahead: “A little bit because at the start of the season I was not convinced that Wilshere and Frimpong could be central midfielders, defensively.” he said. “There is a little bit more competition than we expected there to be. We were considering even maybe going on the market for a midfielder. We will not do that now.”

Wenger – Wilshere and Frimpong played well, and they won’t go out on loan 5

Posted on July 31, 2010 by admin

Jack Wilshere and Emmanuel Frimpong were impressive during their time on the pitch in todays game against AC Milan, and it seems that Wenger has decided that neither of them will be going back out on loan this season.

Wilshere played well at Bolton last season and Owen Coyle had made no secret of the fact that he would love to have him back again this year, and it was reported everywhere today that Frimpong was wanted by Southampton, but it seems that both teams are now going to be disappointed.

Arsenal rumours 23rd July – Zapata, Honda, Wilshere, Schwarzer and Campbell 29

Posted on July 23, 2010 by admin

All the papers today are suddenly certain again that the Fulham keeper Mark Schwarzer is definitely on his way to the Emirates, and the word is that Arsene Wenger has told both Manuel Almunia and Lukasz Fabianski that neither of them will be first-choice keeper in the new season.

This rumour has been never-ending since the end of last season, but I still haven’t seen one bit of evidence to support it, or even a quote from someone “in the know”, so I am still not convinced that Wenger is going to buy a keeper….

Arsenal rumours June 11th – Pienaar, Bougherra, Koscielny, Gallas and Wilshere 6

Posted on June 11, 2010 by admin

Most of todays Arsenal transfer news seems to be pretty speculative, as they are taking Arsene Wenger’s quotes on players appearing at the World Cup and turning them into transfer rumours.

The first one, regarding Everton’s Steven Pienaar, does have a bit of interest as he is in the last year of his contract, and has previously been linked with an Arsenal move. Wenger has admitted that he is good enough to play for the Gunners. His exact words were: “Pienaar has grown this year. He would get into the Arsenal team, yes.”

Arsenal transfer rumours May 28th – Doyle, Wilshere, Cahill, Hazard and Fabregas latest 46

Posted on May 28, 2010 by admin

Yet another Barcelona wannabe president has chimed in with his tuppenceworth today as Marc Ingla insists Cesc Fabregas will definitely be arriving at the Nou Camp.

Ingla said: “Cesc will be a Barcelona player, yes, yes. The money is not as important as his dream because he wants to return to Barcelona and it’s a dream for our fans.

“Arsenal are a model club and to maintain good relations we will try to agree a good price. Of course Barcelona wants to complete a quick deal.

“I believe that Cesc’s time at Arsenal has finished, they have benefited from him and now we hope to reach agreement.”

Arsenal transfer gossip Jan 30th – Sagna, Chamakh, Wilshere and Loic Remy 16

Posted on January 30, 2010 by admin

Even with the big game against Man utd coming up tomorrow, the papers are still full of Arsenal transfer news. Almost everyone has reported that Jack Wilshere has chosen Bolton as his destination for the rest of the season so there is no point going into that here. Except to say Good Luck Jack!

A few papers have also said that Arsenal have still not given up on Marouane Chamakh from Bordeaux, but they say that Wenger is trying to negotiate a pre-contract agreement for next season. Considering that Van Persie will be back in the squad next season, I would personally have thought it unlikely, unless of course he is considering selling Eduardo in the summer?

Arsenal transfer gossip Jan 27th – Victor Moses, Huntelaar, Wilshere and Babel 54

Posted on January 27, 2010 by admin

After the massive disappointment of losing out on Chris Smalling, when Man Utd trumped Arsenal’s offer for the youngster, Arsene Wenger must be feeling hard done by today. Smalling was due at Old Trafford for his medical this morning, and if all went okay he is probably signing a contract at Old Trafford as we speak.

The papers today are not full of much cheer for Wenger either. It has been reported that Arsenal and Liverpool were locked in talks over Ryan Babel, but the Mail has revealed that Sunderland’s Steve Bruce is ready to hijack the deal by going to Rafael Benitez with a cash offer. Wenger is probably hoping that he has no challenges and can try and knock down the price given by Benitez. Not a lot of hope there then!
