Wiltshire is so average it's untrue.

Nonsense. It is scintillating compared to Hampshire. Where Jack Wilshere's grandparents may have visited.

Wilshere is the most overhyped player England have had for an extremely long time.

Does he ever put in a really impressive performance? For Arsenal even?

Going forward Fab has been the best of the midfielders

I've been saying this for a couple of years, he looks tidy and can drift past people well but his passing is average at best and he has very little impact on the games.

I'm relieved Fab made it to half time.

Once in 2011 I think.

He has got into the game in the last 10-15mins pretty well. He gets too far ahead of the ball at times tho, with Villa too, and not in a great position for a pass.

Agreed on Wilshere, awful. Jones is a car crash of a defender too.

He is however the best jumping up and down thrower of a strop since John Terry

A lot of Arsenal fans seem to still rate him. I still think there is a top player in there. He just seems to have left him behind in the friendly against Brazil a few years back. He's gone backwards since in my eyes.

I have high hopes for Wilshere. He has every chance of being the ideal Gerrard replacement, seen him knock a couple of 40 yard passes out for throw ins.

I suppose the one thing is we forget Wilshire is still only 22. I'm guilty of it because it seems like he has been around for yonks.

100% success for Fab's passing, good stuff.
