Wilshere Driven By Competition

Wilshere Driven By Competition

Arsenal have shown the best form of the past 5 years or so. The Gunners finally matured and are now looking forward to winning their first trophy in the last 8 years. Wenger and his team are involved in all possible competitions and have high hopes for what is to come.

Wilshere recently spoke about how determined all of his teammates are and how sompetition for a spot in the starting eleven is very intense. He seemed very happy with the fact that all of the Arsenal players have to fight for a place in Wenger’s team and said that this kind of group is surely going to help him step up his game.


Arsenal’s midfielder was on the bench against Napoli even if he managed to put in some great performances over the past month. Wenger is using a rotation system because of the many games his players have to handle in such short periods of time.

The atmosphere surrounding Emirates seems to be a pretty relaxed one when it comes to team relations. According to Arsenal’s Website Wilshere declared that he is happy for the team regardless of the fact that he may or may not end up playing. The important thing is to win. The Gunners’ desire for trophies remained unsatisfied for a really long time so probably all they can think of NOW IS THE TIME for winning a competition.

Even though the England International spoke highly of his colleagues, and said that they are all performing on the highest level, it is a clear fact that Wilshere is Wenger’s first choice. He is perfectly in tune with Ozil and Ramsey.

Wilshere also spoke about the time he started playing for Arsenal. He had to fight for a place in Wenger’s team with footballers like Fabregas, Song AND Diaby. This kind of competition is what makes a player grow. It is what made Wilshere the player he is today. The 21 year old has still a lot to learn so having players like Rosicky, Arteta and Cazorla around to challenge him will only lead to greater things for Wishere and all the others.
