No Arsenal future for Wilshere


Jamie Redknapp believes Jack
Wilshere needs to leave Arsenal permanently
and use his loan spell at
Bournemouth to prove his fitness.

The Gunners midfielder, who is on
a season-long loan at the Vitality Stadium,
completed 90 minutes for the first
time since 2014 in Bournemouth’s goalless
draw with Tottenham on Saturday.

Speaking to Sky Sports Redknapp
said Wilshere should aim to build up his
confidence and move on from Arsenal
to re-establish himself at the top level.

“I don’t see a future at Arsenal any
more, I think now he will realise he
has got to get away from Arsenal,” Redknapp
said.

“It’s too comfortable for him there.
He is not going to get into the team at
Arsenal regularly.

“If he makes that move he can show
what he is all about. No disrespect, I
think he’s a step above Bournemouth,
but I think it’s a great thing for him
to do. He’s really putting himself out
there.”

Former Aston Villa manager Tim
Sherwood agreed with Redknapp, adding:
“I’m sure he’d go back there because
he is a good talent to have around,
but I agree with Jamie, this is a great
stepping stone for him.

“It’s important if he shows everyone
he’s got the durability to play in the Premier
League every single week.”

Wilshere impressed in midfield
against Tottenham duo Mousa Dembele
and Victor Wanyama, starting and finishing
a game at club level for the first
time since September 13, 2014.

IMMUNITY BILL: A MISPLACED PRIORITY

Certainly, it is not a matter of conjecture to say that the undue interference and unpalatably flagrant disregard to separation of power by the executive tier of government has raised more questions than answers on the integrity of this government and the commitment of the leadership to truly push for the genuine change in line with democratic norms all over the world.   Fatunde Bamidele Samuel (VEGA) writes from lagos. Recently, the society was encapsulated with shocking news of pension bill for the National Assembly members. However, the bill was dead on arrival. This is nothing but another heinous attempt to permanently ground the country that is already suffering from the bloodsucking bedbugs (NASS) and former governors pensions. These are almost sucking the finances of this country dry; if and only if we could act fast to salvage it then we can only hope the existence of Nigeria will not be history. The recent exploit of the National Assembly is evi...
