Century Up (One Day!)

At the moment Jack Wilshere is very much 'flavour of the month', and to be fair rightly so!

His Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger has little doubt that Wilshere, despite still being in the early stages of his international career, will go onto win 100-caps for England as no one can challenge him - fitness permitting - in his role: 'when you look at Wilshere, who will deny that this guy will get 100 caps for England? Nobody, if he has no injury.

'My worry is not to compare Wilshere with anyone else. My only worry when you are a footballer player of that talent is to become as good as you can become.'

Wilshere seems to have been around for a while but is still only 21-years-old, and despite these fledgling years as a professional footballer you would be forgiven for thinking he was older, Wenger added: 'you tend to forget how old he is when you see him play. You never come out of a game and think 'this guy is 21 years old'. He's at a stage where the others have not started.

'You think of Jack (as) an established player in the Premier League and at international level, that is still something special.'

Given his ability, and talent, the midfielder - again this fitness permitting thing - will easily go on and win 100-caps, at least and could well become our most capped player of all time?

He really could go on to become not only one of our finest players, but also one of the games finest really I guess we have to be careful not to run before we can walk and expect too much of him!
