Wenger – Jack can’t walk properly now
The Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger wasn’t very happy with the way that Sunderland were allowed to get away with a series of fouls on Jack Wilshere yesterday, and in the end the young England midfielder had to be taken off the pitch and replaced by Abou Diaby.
Wenger made it clear that he didn’t think he was getting fair treatment. He was asked if he was happy with the ref’s decisions and he replied: “No, I wasn’t, especially on Jack. I was a bit frustrated because I thought many times, Jack didn’t get the free-kick he deserved.
“The referee let two or three things go that I thought were fouls on Jack. I want just the referee to give a foul when it’s a foul. I don’t want any special protection. The referee is not a bodyguard, he is just a referee and you want him just to give a foul when it’s a foul.”
Wenger also made it clear that he thought Jack was badly injured, but he is hoping that he will be back in the squad next week. The Frenchman said: “It was a big kick on the thigh. He couldn’t walk. He doesn’t walk properly now. I hope it’s four or five days until he’s back.”
Knowing how wild some of Wenger’s injury predictions have been in the past, this could mean he will be back tomorrow or he may be out for weeks. I think I would wait until the medical team have done some scans before forecasting the return of our young prodigy. We certainly don’t want him rushed back before he is fully recovered….

Relax guys! He didn’t break a leg. He’ll be back for Bayern, but he might be rested for Blackburn. I’m just happy to hear Santos is gone!

I would cry if was actually injured. But don’t worry Wenger said about 5 days plus we don’t need him for Blackburn we use Rosicjy in that game. We need him fit and ready for Bayern. Really really worried about who’s gonna play in defence but In Wenger I Trust. Cmooonnn Yoouuu Guuunneerrsss

Beware of Wenger predicting Jack being out 5 days,Once the Arsenal medics get hold of him he could be out till doomsday. I think they were trained in the west midlands NHS.

With the greatest respect, I disagree with Arsene Wenger. What he is implying is that he would be happy if the constant fouling of Wilshere is met with more free kicks.
Personally, I would prefer yellow or red cards….the only realistic way he will receive proper protection.
I am very pessimistic about Wilshere’s future as I can only forsee serious injury OR a series of suspensions following retribution. I hope I’m wrong.

I thought Wenger din’t say “I hope” but rather, “it is a question of 4 to 5 days”

I think the ref had a poor preformance yesterday. Larsson made 2 fouls to yellow but only got one yellow card. Jenkinson´s first foul was not to a yellwo card. The second was ok. I the ref have given Larsson a yellow card the first time, in the episode with Ramsey. It would have been Sunderland finishing the game with 10 players. But anyway just glad we got the 3 points

We have the best “team” in the prem with every player fighting for each other and no problems with manager or coachs like chelsea and benitez amd we are not a 1 man team like spurs or rely on RVP or special treatment from refs like man utd. With a little bit of luck for once and some deserved decisions from refs we could go all the way in the CL and F.A cup and of obv get 4th spot maybe even 3rd
