A favorite with north London fans, Wilshire helped the Gunners win the FA Cup back-to-back and won numerous individual accolades, including PFA Young Player of the Year and Arsenal Player of the Season.

He was capped 34 times by England, playing for West Ham, Bournemouth and Danish club AGF before ending his career this summer.

Since taking charge of Arsenal’s Under-18s, they lost 1-0 to Chelsea, drew 1-1 with Fulham and now beat north London rivals Tottenham Hotspur 4-1.

Omar Benjamin, 16, scored a hat-trick in the match and Wilshere spent the entire time sending his players an impassioned message that went viral.

‘How you feel? They deserve it,” Wilshere told the players.

We didn’t get the result we wanted, which is good, but we’ll keep building. Do you remember how you trained, your attitude, what I said before the match?

‘Look me in the eyes. I have seen each and every one of you look at me and look at each other, and this is the sight that tells me you are in this together.

You have passion, you have desires, you want to win. That’s the level, folks.
