Arsenal keeps on surprising Europe with their most recent triumph that sees them topping Group F with 9 points alongside the German giants Borussia Dortmund.  They also suffered their 2^nd loss in the Premier League when going head to head with Manchester United but even with the defeat, they are still at the top of the English League.

Arsene Wenger’s side received a further boost when receiving the news that Borussia Dortmund will be left without Mats Hummels for the remainder of the year and not only that but Dortmund will also be missing Marcel Schmelzer for around 3 weeks.

With 2 matches remaining in their Champions League group stages they are in need of positive results that can book them their spot for the next rounds of the biggest European tournament.

Jack Wilshere recently said what it would be like to become the captain of Arsenal.

“I’ve grown up at this club and I have captained the club at under-16 level, under-18 level and last season as well I got the armband for 20 minutes or so [against West Ham in January] which was a nice feeling. I want to do that [be a leader] for this club,” he told Arsenal’s official website.

“From the team that I first broke into a lot of them have gone so I’m one of the few who’s been around, there’s Bac [Sagna] as well but I’m one of the only midfielders who has been around for a while.
The 21 years old player of Arsenal made his debut with the club at the age of 16 and since then has played an important part for the English team and from the looks of it he will not be leaving the club anytime soon.
