    Wrong, he still had the same contract offer that was on the table before AW left, he has decided he wants more game time so has decided to leave, not that we kicked him out

    That's all just common politeness to save his blushes. His rather petulant reaction tells you that he was clearly told the only chance he had of a game is if all the midfielders at the club who are better than him (i.e. all of them) were injured or dead.

    If you want to believe that we would happily pay him around £4-5m a year with no chance of playing then carry on

    There is that lingering feeling about what he could have been, or even should have been given that he is 26 and no longer young Jack Wilshere. He was slightly different to your average English midfield player and very much in the mould of Arsenal, but then he was injured a lot and even under Wenger had moved down the pecking order.

    Not making Southgate’s WC squad must have told him his career is seriously in reverse.

    I am not one for huge sentimentality about footballers so no loss as far as I am concerned.

    And if you want to believe the palpable, face-saving fiction that that was really what was on the table, then carry on.

    Yes, I'll be interested to see if he ends up at a club that is 'better' than The Arsenal.
    I'm sure AFC East will think he will.

    I'm afraid he never built on his early promise or appeared to learn from his mistakes. The same could be said for Walcott. I've no idea if that was a failing of the individual or of coaching or both, but it's been obvious for years that his true level is West Ham or Crystal Palace and it looks like that's where he's finally heading.
