No, this is not the title to Dan Brown’s next Robert Langdon suspense novel, but the questions being posed within are just as puzzling.
Of late, it seems that our very own Jack Wilshere has well and truly recovered from the injury and successive surgeries that have affected him for well over two seasons.
What’s baffling is that his most influential performance of the season so far came against Marseille: you know, the match where he played as our right winger?
Incisive passing and tenacity in retrieving the ball are nothing new to Jack’s game, but a brace against a Champions League level side is. And as for the givens: didn’t his passing seem that little bit more incisive? His pressing even more tenacious?
Last year, Arsene Wenger made a comment about Jack after his winner against Swansea in the FA Cup. He said that Wilshere was a complete midfielder who could play anywhere, but the closer to goal, the better. A few days ago, he said Wilshere’s best role was as a deep-lying midfielder (this before the Marseille game).
To me it seems that, much like Roy Hodgson and my plethora of Arsenal FIFA Career Modes, Wenger has very little idea which position best suits Jack.
