Would he not be in some way Scottie Parkerish in what he offers a team?
We're too snobby about stuff like this. Obviously we'd love to have a defensively strong, physical, energetic midfielder who can also pick out lovely passes. But when you have good attacking quality in other players, sometimes it really does pay off having a massive dickhead whose only job is to go around abusing opponents.
We have to play to our strengths. Who's our only chance of dragging us onto the next level? Answer: Wilshere. So then you put all your eggs in the Wilshere basket and find him a bitch that'll do his dirty work for him. Then you get your Cazorla's and Oxlade's to support, and your Theo's and Podolski's to read his game. That's the only way we're moving forward.
