Wilshere and Szczesny discuss the pros and cons of Twitter

Arsenal youngsters Jack Wilshere and Wojciech Szczesny have been talking about their Twitter experiences since joining the popular social networking site.

Wilshere says he enjoys being able to interact with Arsenal fans, while the outspoken Szczesny admits he has to be more careful with his tweeting in future.

Wilshere said: "I've got it really to get involved with the fans and get their opinions. It's helpful to know what they are thinking, the fans are the most important people at a football club and to know what they are thinking does help us.

"There are negative and positive things, I've had negative things on there after a bad performance but that is helpful as well.

"If you think about it it's weird - everything you say, they are probably at the end of their phone and they know what I am doing. But it's good to get their opinion after a game."

Former Liverpool player Ryan Babel was charged by the FA for some comments made on Twitter in January, and Szczesny knows he has to watch what he says to avoid a similar fate.

He said: "I understand that you can easily get in trouble for writing things that you perhaps shouldn't do.

"I posted a couple of tweets that I shouldn't have and got away with it. Some of the other players in the Premier League were not as lucky as me.

"I understand I have to think about it and understand that a lot of people read it and I have to take responsibilities for what I say.

"Now I have experience and I have learned from other people's mistakes, I think about what I tweet.

"I don't usually tweet when I'm frustrated after a bad game or we lose. I'm trying to focus on tweeting nice things, how great it is at Arsenal and how well we're doing. That makes it a little bit easier for me.

"You can get your message across any time you want and no one can misquote you."
