Jack Wilshere’s ankle fracture is nowhere close to healing after months of wearing a CAM boot. Now, he will undergo ankle surgery this Monday which will put him out of commission for another 2-3 months.
The present squad have now lost almost 5 years in playing time devoted to recuperation from ankle injuries with RVP and Thomas Vermaelen accounting for two years of that time. A single anatomical part has significantly impacted Arsenal’s fortunes over the years.
