Absolutely mind boggling ! Hearing Woodgate's praise for Jack after the game, I am more optimistic that Jack has nailed down the Lewis Cook position from here on in. That would be great for the team and also for Jack personally, who was a little bit disappointed not to be a regular starter for us. Cook's injury could actually end up benefitting the team as a whole and Jack Wilshere personally, so feasibly the best possible outcome under those unfortunate circumstances.Should be first name on the sheet, fitness permitting. Just makes the team tick. He was fantastic again, tonight.. Pure folly to have that talent sat on the bench in previous games.
Jack is so genuinely committed to us when he is here that I was feeling sorry for him when he was being continually ignored as a starter. Now that needs must, hopefully the stars are aligning for all parties. Lewis will be back when Jack has (probably) moved on to better things
