Great if he stays but our midfield needs some reconstruction so I wouldn't feel too bad about him leaving. While Wilshere has somewhat proved his fitness I don't think his proved his quality consistently over the past two seasons.

That's his problem though.That thinking ignores the fact that the more income you make, the more you spend.
Do you think Jack is actually making 85k p/w but spending money as though he's on 85k p.a? Yes he's earning more than most would ever in a lifetime but I can assure you he's spending more than most would ever spend in a lifetime too.
"He earns more so he spends more".... So what, the poor must feel sorry for him that he has expensive cars, houses, gadgets etc etc etc. My word, the world has lost the plot.
To be fair, neither Barkley nor Drinkwater deserve more than 80K a week...Think the point GoonerZig was making was that fans expect players to accept whatever deal they get because a weeks wage is way more than most earn in a year. Wilshere obviously would have higher than usual outgoings so he'd also want a better weekly wage if he can get it, especially when his mate Drinkwater is on 120,000 a week and Barkey reportedly on 150,000 a week.
Think his point was spot on to be honest and I don't know what the fuss is about. All he said was Wilshere would have higher outgoings and is a high earner compared to the general public so whilst 80,000 a week to some here is amazing to Wilshere it would just be normal.
Some people should learn, that rating players on goals and asssists isn't everything.
U really think another team would take the chance?It’s not a ton of money, he’s been mostly fit for a year and a half now, and if we don’t give it to him, someone else will. Just sign him up and move on.
Catch 22
We offer Wilshere (not Wilshere ffs) a big contract and he gets injured and we have diaby all over again.
We offer Wilshere (not Wilshere ffs) and contract and he turns it down and goes to a top club.
Got no idea what the future holds but in our current position we cannot afford to take chances.
He's got a point though. Mertsacker, Rosicky, Cazorla all had their contracts extended on the same terms AFAIK despite the club knowing that they'd barely play. Why the differing stance to Jack?
Can i just ask what is "big wages" these days ?
100k/week for Jack seems on the low side.
50k/week
100k/week
200k/week
300k/week
???
what is a young player getting, eg AMN
what is a bench player getting, eg Elneny
what is a consistent first 11 player getting, eg Xhaka
what is a nailed on first teamer gettin, eg Mikhi
what is a star marquee getting, eg Özil
What team would go for Wilshere apart for Everton?
Liverpool? chelsea? Sp**s? united? City?
i dont think so.
If he wants to play for a top club he has to stay with us and accept his squad player level with a squad player salary.
