The absolute main obstacle that Jack Wilshere will face in the approaching season is without a glimpse of a doubt is trying to find consistency throughout the season as he has to avoid getting injured and this is an important factor for Wilshere now more than ever considering that Wenger has many alternatives available to him whenever Wilshere underperforms or gets injured.

This recently concluded summer vacations has attracted a series of negative headlines for Jack Wilshere as he was seen smoking on 2 occasions which is something that is certainly not beneficial for the player that wants to avoid having any types of health and physical conditions in this season which is only a few days away from kicking off.

When Wilshere was asked about the smoking incidents the Englishman replied by saying that he is young and people makes mistakes but he wants to avoid doing that all together.

Wilshere said: “The smoking? Of course I regret it. I’ve been seen before doing it. I said then I made a mistake and I have made a mistake again. People make mistakes .I’m young and I’ll learn from it. I realize the consequences it has and the effect on kids growing up. I have kids myself and I don’t want them growing up to think their dad smokes and it’s OK for a footballer to smoke because it’s not. It’s unacceptable and I will accept the consequences and I will move on.”

The head coach of Arsenal, Arsene Wenger has already shown his dissatisfaction towards those incidents involving Wilshere and the Frenchman talked with the player with the hopes of avoiding doing that in the future.

If Jack Wilshere can indeed prevent getting injured and avoid attracting any more negative media headlines or incidents, the Englishman has a real chance of turning into one of the most influential players for Arsenal in this upcoming season.
