Your support makes all the difference.Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere has endured another injury setback and will unfortunately be out until around Christmas.
The England international is in need of surgery on a hairline fracture in his left leg that he suffered during pre-season training. Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger originally hoped that Wilshere would be back around this time, but revealed last week that Wilshere had suffered a further complication.
The Arsenal midfielder, who has not played more than 25 Premier League matches in a season since 2010-11, found little sympathy for his plight.
In fact, 'Jack Wilshere' quickly became a top, and rather harsh, trend on social media, with rival fans mercilessly mocking the Arsenal star.
Some of the best reaction is below:
Poor Jack.
