Jack Wilshere Is Not Impressed With Arsene Wenger's Tactics

Jack Wilshere isn't happy about being played incorrectly under Arsene Wenger.

The Arsenal boss has been employing the England international on the left-hand side, opposed to his favoured position in the center of midfield where he plays for England.

The 24-year-old played over an hour on Sunday against Turkey in a 2-1 win, in spite of only featuring once with the Gunners after a broken leg which restricted his playing time. Despite the lack of minutes on the pitch, it's expected that Roy Hodgson will pick him as part of his 23-man squad. The England boss plays him in the middle of the park but playing on the wide for Arsenal has forced him to speak about his disappointment, claiming;

"With Arsenal I've been playing out wide, which is not me, I'm not a wide man."

The Arsenal man continues to state how he enjoys playing in the middle for England;

"Roy seems to have faith in me in the middle, so I'm happy with that. I like to play anywhere in the middle. I played the holding role before and I really enjoy that, and, this time I was a bit higher up the pitch and I enjoyed that as well."

Wilshere has the opportunity to prove his fitness when England host Australia on Friday night before the England have to submit their final squad.
