Bolton Wanderers manager Owen Coyle is concerned ex-loanee Jack Wilshere could spoil his day at Arsenal FC.

The 18-year-old midfielder spent half a season at the Reebok Stadium last season and Coyle had hoped he would return for the current campaign.

However, Wilshere wanted to stay with the Gunners and fight for a first-team place.

Coyle said: 'Jack is a very talented player. He is such a gifted lad and has matured no end. He came to us as a boy and went back to Arsenal as a man.

“He showed that by playing in the Arsenal first team and by turning out for England at full international level. There is no doubt he is going to have a glittering career.

“He knows the way we work and he has a lot of friends here. But during the match we will try to nullify the threat he poses.”
