Jack Wilshere: We have to believe, this season’s not over yet

Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere believes the Gunners can still win the title if their rivals drop points along the way.

Speaking after last Sunday’s impressive win over leaders Manchester United, the Englishman confessed the players are disappointed for dropping so many points lately but added that they have to keep the belief and fight until the very end.

Asked about Aaron Ramsey’s goal, the youngster declared he is delighted for his friend as he went through “hell” after suffering a horrible injury at the Britannia Stadium more than a year ago.

Wilshere concluded by saying that the future is bright for the Gunners as the win over the Red Devils demonstrated as this is a young team who can play against anyone with more youngsters ready to step it up like defender Kieran Gibbs.

After the 1-0 win, the 19-year old said:

This season’s not over yet, there’s three games left, we’ve beaten Manchester United and hopefully they can drop a few more points and we’ll see where we are at the end of the year.

Obviously we’ve dropped points in the last week and it’s been frustrating but we have to believe. I don’t know how many points are in it but I know Chelsea are three points behind so it’s not over for anyone yet, we have to keep fighting until the end.

[Aaron Ramsey] is my friend and I’m delighted for him, we’ve seen him go through hell [but] he’s come back he’s fought his way back into the starting line-up and he was brilliant today. I look forward to playing with him more in the future.

[He] is a good player and good players think alike, we linked up well today. If Cesc’s playing it’s a different game he’s one of our best players and we miss him obviously but we knew we had to step up today and me and Aaron did.

We played a young team today and we beat [United] so the future looks bright for us, we showed we can play against anyone. I’m looking forward to playing in midfield with Aaron [Ramsey] and with Theo [Walcott] on the wing. There’s still Kieran Gibbs [to come in as well].

    isnt Afobe 17? surely JET is a better option at this point.

    also, its too early to sell chamakh. I believe that if he learns to pull the trigger, the guy could become quite dangerous. As for Bendtner, this season was a joke anyways, half the time he was brought on he was played out wide. That’s hardly his natural position.

    personally, I think alot of players were played out of position this year in Wenger’s new 4-5-1, some reacted better than others. Nasri and RVP have flourished, while Arshavin and Fabregas have never looked comfortable.

    • SeattleGooner says:

      I should add that, if Arsene sticks with a 451/4231/433 (whatever permutation you think Arsenal were in this season) he needs to seriously evaluate players like Walcott and Bendtner, because they might not realistically fit in Arsenal’s plans. Walcott, for example, seems like he would make a better Central Forward than a winger, where he never looks totally comfortable and tends to disappear from games. Bendtner obviously would benefit from playing a striking role as well.

      The only players I’m completely sold on selling this summer are Almunia, Denilson, Diaby, Squillaci and probably Rosicky. I’ve rooted for Rosicky as much as anyone, but he’s absolutely toothless in attack and lately he seems to have lost the plot in build up play as well. Diaby is a sad case because he has loads of potential, I just don’t think he will ever fulfill it. That and his temper is an issue, teams like bolton, stoke and newcastle know they can kick him a few times and get in his head.

    Don’t give up on it yet, imagine United lose to Chelsea and Blackpool (you never know against a desperate team) and Chelsea get upset by Newcastle or Everton who are both good clubs. I know the most likely outcome is for both to win their last two games but we saw what happenned with Arsenal a few weeks ago (Bolton, Spurs and Liverpool). This season any team can beat any other team and United have lost at home vs Wolves already.

    • Dorian says:

      United have yet to lose at home this season so you are wrong On that one. Arsenal need a miracle but first they just need to win there games cause mancity is only 2 points back if they win their game in hand

  • Shanghaifrench says:

    I think that we never know and that we should give everything we have

    Charlie, it’s funny because I saw your name in few other comments on Evra saying we weren’t dangerous with the ball and I always agreed with you.
    Are you the same Charlie?

  • Hunter says:

    Yes, and the tooth fairy is going to show up at my house tomorrow.
