"It's such an honour for me,” he told Arsenal.com. “Getting the No 10 shirt again at the Club means so much to me as I wore it all through the youth teams at Arsenal.

“It has a special place for all attacking or creative players. I feel proud to wear it now after some real Club legends have worn it, such as Dennis Bergkamp.

“Now I am even more excited about returning to action and honouring the shirt.”

Can't wait until he get's fit. It will be so exciting to see him again. There are so many posibilities with how to set up the team with him.

Jack Wilshere, Arsenal's no. 10!

We missed him so much last season. Can't wait to see him play again.

How many other notable players have worn the number 10 for us? Bergkamp, Merson and then...?

goon

Gallas.

Can't wait to see him back

Great Jack got No 10 - it had to be his.

Poldi No 9? :o
Break the curse, Wukas!

And Park 30 😆. Maybe he'll start playing now.

The Club is pleased to advise that it will replace any 2012/13 replica kit, including ... ‘Park 9’

Nooo! how is it possible to replace so many kits?

Martens

Seems like a calculated albeit natural move to wipe out V.P's legacy.

Very happy for Wilshere. Can't wait to have him back.

How many of those have they sold, six?

Klaus

Six shirts in London and six million more in Seoul.

Burnwinter

Can't have sold that many even in Korea, given how few appearances he's had and how dissatisfying his sojourn at Arsenal has been.

Klaus

Five million then.

No, but seriously. He's not a very popular player.

Wasn't really thinking of Korea 😆 . But they must mean this year's kit, and I doubt too many koreans bothered after the great year he had. edit: Yeah, what BW said.

And to raise morale of fans ahead of tomorrow's game.

Words can't express how much of a fuck I give for Wilshere to come back in a couple of months and be just like he was.

🙂 Delighted for him and for us.

That is definitely a swipe at the disgrace that is persie, good for wilshere now to build up from his recovery and hopefully be ready to play in a month or two.

It was on the official website lagos
He's disabled his twitter account.
Did so months ago to concentrate on his rehab.

I don't think he did anything wrong at all.
The official club statement doesn't even wish Van Persie well, so why should Jack acknowledge him?
He lost the right or any claim to be considered worthy of the Arsenal number 10, let alone a considered a legend .

Have a day off. At worst, he has implied Van Persie is not a club legend. There is nothing bullish about Wilshere's comments.

Mirth

I don't even read it as a swipe at van Persie, he just says that sharing the same #10 with Dennis Bergkamp is an honour.

lorddulaarsenal

Nothing wrong with being bullish anyways
