| Wilshere's piledriver against Swansea |
“There is not even a question over whether or not Arsenal's
midfield is in good hands. Jack will be the England captain inside the next two
or three years, you don't have to be a magician to work that one out… he's got
the capacity to dribble, to pass, he will go on to become a top player of the
future. There's not even a question about that.”*
These were Cesc Fabregas’ parting words
of comfort to Gooners, that just as with many great players before him, the club would cope with his departure. It remains debateable just how much Cesc’s
tenure with the club after Vieira left can be qualified as “coping,” but it is
fair to say we were in better shape when he inherited the mantle of talisman
than we are today.
