Are some folk here seriously saying Wilshire is a better player than Keane was? Those who are stating that are either too young to remember keane properly or just trolling. Just compare what Keane had achieved by Wilshire's age. The strength, the vision, the touch of Keane was pure class plus he was utterly fearless.
No simpathy ore hate for none of them. Injuries ruined Jack Willshere's carrier, at 19 years old he was the best player vs Barcelona, that guy was unbelievable. And Pirlo is the most overrated italian player, when AcMilan were in bad days Pirlo was nothing, he went in Juve to look good. Yess he was a good passer but nothing more. So Jack would be far better then Pirlo if it wasnt for injuries, and Capello knows nothing in football thats why he is in Arabia ore wherever he is right now.
🤣 He was absolutely correct!! And this man knows what hes talking about, spent years battling against one of the premierships best midfielders in Patrick Viera. Wiltshire was pur hot air hype and his attitude stunk too
That is total bollocks. Jack Wilshere is THE most overrated player during the 40 years I've been following football. I'm in agreement with Roy Keane. He had 200 appearances for 4 clubs over 12 years. I know he was injured every other week but did play many games. During those 12 years as a creative/attacking midfielder he scored 8 goals. Eight, yes only 8 goals. Sol Campbell scored more. I will also mention being photographed smoking twice didn't help. No sorry, he's a liabilty. That's why he can't get a contract. WASTE OF SPACE.
Wiltshire, phenomenally overrated and a terrible attitude. Did extremely well as youngster against a superb Barcelona and quite a few other games. Just was never going to meet the excessive level of hype. Therefore. Absolutely Over Rated!!!!!
@@kb9072 what sort of position is "creative/attacking midfielder"? Good job looking up stats, but you have no idea what you're talking about, if Keane didn't say that about him you probably wouldn't even know what to think yourself lol
@@michadunski472 Firstly, creative/attacking midfielder is the opposite of a defensive/holding midfielder. Very simple, the clue is in the words. Secondly, I've always said he has built a reputation on the back of one great goal and one great performance. I would go further than Keane and say more like well below average player. Wildly overrated. Thirdly, his injuries have probably not helped his performances however nor has the cigarettes and fighting either. A few incidents of smoking and drinking/fighting/abusing people shows he wasn't doing the correct things to help his own cause. Fourthly, why do you suppose he can't get a contract? He isn't he wanted by any club? He is available for free!
6 years later, this is one of the most laughable comment sections I’ve ever seen. Wiltshire was getting shit on but in 2018 him and Lallana where literally England’s most talented all round midfielders🤣
Jack Wiltshire is not the most overrated player. The most overrated player in the premier league is Wilfried Zaha. As a Tottenham Hotspur supporter I am terrified that we might actually sighn him.
Andrej I am totally sick and tired of ever Football debate/argument ending up as a Liverpool vs Man Utd one. When will this ever f**king end. It’s problems putting millions of football supporters of from getting involved. Not everything is about these two team.
Shspurs1 Lol are you alright mate? I said Heskey was a great player in Liverpool, has nothing to do with liv vs utd or anything dont know whats your problem
Rooney said he was the best passer at man u. Certainly up there behind scholes. His passing was very good and sharp great decision making more complete than most.
Was not that good? Go and watch Man Utd v Juve away in 99 and Ireland v Holland in 2001 in Dublin. Keane was a very very good player who was an even better captain and leader. You view is at best ignorant as anyone who has watched football for a long period of time knows that the view you have is inaccurate.
Nevermind 7 league titles, 4 FA Cups, Champion's League including a historic treble. He's also a PFA, FWA winner and finished inside a Ballon 'Dor top 10. How does that make you a bad player?
Jack Wilshere my son, i pleaded with you not to abandon Arsenal, but my pleas fell on your deaf ears. Listen as to how you're being torn apart. It's claimed that you're over rated!! Too bad for you. This will finish you young man!!!!!
Just one small stat to show how wrong you've got that. Jack Wilshire and Dale Ali are both creative/attacking midfielders. Both have had about 200 club appearances. JW has scored 8 goals DA has scored 72 goals
It's Keane's opinion & he is entitled to it. But he is wrong in my opinion. Jack is one of the few English players that are comfortable on the ball. Others are John Stone, Danny Rose , ...etc. jack is underrated. It's Dele Alli, Lampard, Henderson, ... etc that are overrated! Not Jack. And am a Guardiola fc fan ...
Jack, for you to abuse me shows that you're quite immature and archaic. Style up and let your faculties work in a sane way. Wilshere was a darling to all, but, he got scared of competition my friend. Let sanity prevail when you utter sth please.
Aaron Kidd Not true. He was rated when he broke out to the first team in 2010-11 season. Look at his performance against Barcelona. Held his own against Xavi and Iniesta. Then he hurt his ankle and had a problem with it every year. He was the shadow of the player he was then.
astrojeet two games don’t make a player and your talking 7seasons ago he seems play average when game won he arsenal 2-3 up other teams gone home he comes on flick ball he’s totally overrated because the press love arsenal
The press love arsenal? HAHAHAHA That's the dumbest thing I've ever heard. The press has shit on Arsenal ever since the invincibles lost at Old Trafford. They shit on every club where they can get clicks from. They just love English players. You missed my point. He had one incredible season at the age of 18 where he competed against the best in the world which is proof of his world class potential. It was not 2 or 3 games when they 2-3 goals up either, but the entire season at crucial moments he would find a key pass or dribble through and find space in key situations. This was in his first first team season where he outperformed the likes of Fabregas and Nasri in their absolute prime. And that was only it, potential. He did not fulfill his potential. Thus he never became the player he was destined to be. Could be because of injuries, his own fault, it doesn't really matter. I don't think you or Keane do not understand what overrated means since he was never rated as a great player to begin with. He was not rated as world class ever. People only talked about his potential. He was rated as a talented player who never fulfilled his potential. Let me give you an example of what overrated means. Delle Alli is overrated because pundits consider him world class which he clearly isn't. He's very good, but you can't compare him to players like De Bruyne or Hazard who are actually world class.
Roy Keane is the most overrated sportsperson, not just footballer, that this planet has ever seen. He was slow, had only one foot and couldn't tackle to save his half-time bumming from Nicky Butt.
Red Man So what u r now calling him shit because his injured. I bet u have never even seen Jack Wilshere play, all u r doing is saying his shit because of his injury record and not on his performances when he isn't injured.
Typical Keane anti arsenal........if Keane had half of the natural talent Wiltshire had he probably would of saved a packet of therapists...... Jack Wiltshire like numerous other young extraordinarily talented players to go to the Emirates has been criminally wasted under the tutorship of Wenger..... Whatever Wenger has achieved trophy wise is far outweighed by his gross inadequacies as an english footballing coach.
Declan Oshaughnessy Any neutral with a brain is anti Arsenal right now. No points away from home this year is ridiculous. Yes Jack Wilshere has talent but he doesn’t have the fitness levels to play at the top. He also doesn’t contribute to goals often enough.
Declan Oshaughnessy what talent you are talking of lol? That one whom he spend half of the season on the bench and the other half nut really in form but your idiotic fans denying it.
