Name the key difference between Arsenal before the international break and now and you can’t say the arrivals of both Shkodran Mustafi and Lucas Perez.

It is of course the departure of Jack Wilshere in his shock Deadline Day loan switch to AFC Bournemouth.

Having appeared from the bench when sent on by Arsene Wenger at Watford last time out, Wilshere will now play the rest of the season at Vitality Stadium where even a few of his new Cherries team-mates might look on at him with awe.

It’s been a forgettable period in Wilshere’s career with injuries having reared their ugly head continuously.

Despite controversially being called up by Roy Hodgson for England’s Euro 2016 squad, it didn’t really work out for Wilshere in France either and the AFC Bournemouth move offers him a chance to reignite his career in less glamorous surroundings.

In all fairness, Dorset is actually a beautiful part of the country and being in the south, Wilshere isn’t so far away from home in a move that will ultimately give football fans more answers about his long-term future and whether that belongs at Arsenal.

Arsene Wenger spoke in his pre-Southampton press conference about Wilshere being “world class” so there is absolutely no doubting that the Frenchman still fully believes in his ability.

With this theme in mind, Arsenal Mania are today looking at FIVE reasons why Jack Wilshere’s loan move to AFC Bournemouth makes sense.
