When Arsenal return to the bread and butter work of the Premier league in 11 days time, the team could have a new look to it after Jack Wilshere, Bacary Sagna and Emmanuel Frimpong completed decent shifts with no complications last night for the under-21 team.
Wilshere played for about an hour against West Brom last week and was understandably cautious. The 20-year old took another big step last night, being much more involved and influential and obviously enjoying himself. He was replaced by Nico Yennaris with 15 minutes to go but had been showing signs that he could be ready for some first team action.
Frimpong was excellent and could definitely play in the league, if Arsene Wenger can find room for him in our star studded midfield. Sagna will probably need another reserve outing but he did manage an hour and has got more time during the international break to get stronger.
Sagna has praised the efforts of his stand in Carl Jenkinson. Everybody connected with the club has been surprised and delighted by how well the young right back has coped with his new responsibility, including Sagna.
“He brings a lot to the team and I am very happy for him because he is a hard worker, a very good guy and is going to be one of the best.”
If Abou Diaby and Kieran Gibbs are back from injury, as expected, by October 20th then Wenger will have a real selection headache. Only Tomas Rosicky will be missing from the squad and that is almost unheard of for the Gunners.
Poor Norwich will not be looking forward to the game, that is for sure.
