A lot of people are keen on the club signing Wilshere and I'm wondering if we would be so keen if he wasn't an Irons fan.
Sentiment aside, he's technically a good player but I firmly believe we would be better off signing Jota or another player who can create from midfield. I am just so tired of us buying injury prone players and never seeing them on the pitch. Kieran Dyer, Freddie Ljungberg, Craig Bellamy, Diafra Sakho, Andy Carroll, Dean Ashton ( to an extent) . all of this players were gifted and none of hem contributed to the extent we would have hoped for. Buy younger, fitter players who we can keep long term but more importantly keep on the pitch when we need them.

I think it would all depend on (to me anyway)
1) How much he cost - in todays fees, 5-7m is nothing
2) What contract he was on - If it's pay as you play - 1/ 2 years with options to extend based on game time then I think it would be a gamble worth taking

If it was 10m+ and 100k per week basic - then no.
