United legend gives his views

Manchester United legend Paul Scholes fears that Jack Wilshere has ‘set his sights too low’ by choosing to move to Bournemouth.

Wilshere had options to go on loan to bigger clubs such as AC Milan and Roma, but chose to go to Bournemouth for more playing time.

Scholes told Sky Sports News: “I would have liked to have seen him, if he did have to leave Arsenal, go to a big club like Roma.

“Get some experience abroad, I think that would have been great for him and would have been great for the England team as well.”

And Scholes says that playing for a smaller team does not guarantee first team football, which may have become a problem had he stayed at the Emirates.

Scholes added: “Just because he is going to Bournemouth, doesn’t mean he is going to play all the time.

“He has to perform whatever club you are at, whether you are at Bournemouth, Arsenal, Man United or Roma.

“You still have to perform to play first team football. I’m sure there are other players at Bournemouth who are saying ‘I’m going to be playing instead of Jack – I want his place’.

“It always comes back to whether he is fit. I don’t know how his ankles are – I know he struggles with them.

“If he stays fit then there is no doubt he is the top player there. But he should be playing for a top three or four club in England and that is what he should be aiming for. I just worry a little that he has set his sights too low.”
