Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has given his full confidence to England international Jack Wilshere to be fully fit by the time the Euro’s come around and expects him to play a big part in England’s campaign.
Speaking to Arsenal Player, the Frenchman claims that he remains optimistic about Wilshere’s chances of recovering from his current injury and hopes that the Englishman will shake off his knack of sustaining injuries so that his career can take flight, like so many fans hoped it would.
You know I’m an optimist and I always think, ‘OK it’s true that he hasn’t played many games in recent years. I hope at some stage that will stop because he is young and I hope I’m right.
He is a special case because he is a special talent and he comes out of the club. And he is an England international and I hope his injuries will stop at some stage.

Despite making only a handful of appearances for the Gunners in recent years, Wenger fully expects that Wilshere’s time on the sideline will only fuel his hunger to reclaim his spot in the starting line-up once his injury passes.
When you love football and at his age, when you wake up in the morning and you can’t practice that’s terrible. They need support and I try to give it to him. But he is strong and he is dealing with that. He started at 17 and played every single game and suddenly it stopped. So I believe that can make you stronger.
Arsenal are currently at the top of the Barclays Premier League table and, coming into the New Year, they will certainly be looking to stay there and claim their first league title in over a decade. Should Wilshere recover from his injury as Wenger expects him to, then he will undoubtedly prove to be a crucial element in the Gunners bid for the title.
