Press conference

What’s the latest on Jack Wilshere?

The sight of Jack Wilshere coming off injured had many Arsenal fans fearing the worst on Wednesday night - but what is the latest on the midfielder?

Arsene Wenger had this to say after the match:

on Wilshere’s injury…

He has an ankle sprain and the first look at it was not too bad, but of course for Sunday I think he will be short. I do not know how long he will be out. It is a shame to lose him when he is such good form and it was by blocking the shot that turned his ankle and it’s his good ankle so I am quite positive.

on whether it is a ligament or bone problem…

No, it’s a ligament.
