Eboue indeed had a sensational night vs Barca, probably the best performance in an Arsenal shirt for him. He was good player, felt maybe he lacked the consistency but he was a good servant of the club.
Lad had bags of natural talent and a left foot you cant train unfortunately not everyone is physically up to playing professional easily could've gone another way and in 10 years time we could've been comparing him to the likes of Gerrard, Lampard and Scholes. Such a shame tbh.
Busquet is one of the great divers of all time. Look at him wrong and he fell down. One of the secrets to Barcas succes, as soon as someone got close to them they fall down and ref always whistles in their favour. Makes it impossible for the opponents.
Jack was so good that night. Such a shame He never fulfilled the promise He showed. I genuinely anticipated that He would be world class. Sadly it never happened
@@benlowe578 yep but then he lived off that game for the rest of his arsenal career. He would show bits of potential then get injured again. His issue and what makes him overrated is he would hold on to the ball for too long resulting in him being tackled and getting injured.
I remember me and my mates watching this game live and we called Busquets “biscuit” because of how easily he would go down from the softest touch. Really frustrated us that the ref blew his whistle whenever he did that
Wilshere, Bentley, Walcott etc. So many talented English footballers that didn't really fulfil their potential imho. Circumstance and injuries play a big part as well tbf
I have been supporting Arsenal Since 2002, I believe That was the greatest performance I have seen from an Arsenal player. To do wat 19 yrs old did, against Xavi, Iniesta and Busquets. Unbelievable. 1
The comment about Barcelona having a bunch of players of similar talent level to Wilshere in their second team, and about making the first team at Arsenal because there was no pressure to win the title was harsh, but true.
Well like Wilshere said they had Thiago, but that was then cos their midfield was the greatest of all time. Generally there aren’t players on Barcelona or anyone’s 2nd team of Wilshere’s level
That Barcelona team were incredible technically, but my God they loved a fall as soon as they got touched. Refs don’t seem to give those fouls as much now but you literally couldn’t touch Barca players back then
And in the reverse busquets would get away with deliberate fouls and not draw clear yellow cards. So because he wasn't being carded he was just permitted to "break up play" by fouling over and over. It's actually sickening. Fernandinho did the same stuff too. They are considered great but really the refs gave them a ridiculous amount of leeway to consistently foul. In not saying they deserve red cards but when you get the yellow appropriately, it changes the way they need to play. Barca was so good they still win overwhelming majority but in big games or cup competitions it can change the number of trophies they got if they drop 1 or 2 more games over that ten year period.
It's great to see that Wilshere agrees with what pep had said about their being many players in Barca B just like Wilshere. After 10 years, you can clearly see that pep was right and if anything he flattered Wilshere.
Imagine crowd roaring you on as you voice through icons like xavi iniesta busquets. He was the most naturally gifted youngster to come out England this era.
Nobody's posted about this one in a while. Seeing Jack back on the air, only this time as a youth coach, was fantastic. It's really a happy ending that's just a new beginning.
@@mikem8211 Well yeah of course he can find another club but he doesn't want to drop down a level. The issue is he could easily get a championship club or play MLS or in India or China or Australia or in the top divisions in Scandinavia or Eastern Europe but no mid to lower level premier league clubs are giving him a job and that's the issue. We will see what happens though. Last season he played in the top division in Denmark so we will see if he stays or moves back to England.
If you think about it all busquets has is 4 champions league medals 8 la liga medals 7 copa dels and 3 club world cups and 3 teams of the season awards... no doubt in my my mind he'd chuck it all in for an fa cup and an arsenal player of the season!
What he said and what you said are two different things. Calm down bruh. Am a Barca fan and he was right about some of our players... Busquets, Alves, Jordi Alba etc
i remember that. we did get robbed. barca on their heels my boi. don’t forget it. that’s one of the best games we’ve played since i started supporting the club.
I remember this game vividly. Barcelona battered Arsenal in the first half. I had never seen a top team go to another top teams ground and play them off the park like that. Barca went 2-0 and probably thought the game was done.
Correct! When Arsenal were leading the tie the referee sent RvP off for nothing lol, only then did Barcelona score. Same thing in 2009 against Chelsea. Same thing against Inter in 2010 but somehow Inter went through.
2nd leg was a robbery I agree.. Barca got found out paying a few of the refs a couple months ago.. makes you wonder how much the ref got paid just to sent off V.Persie... never mind the Arsenal game, what about the game vs Chelsea... Barca was a great team no doubt, but against bullying team ( and let me tell you Wilshere really made Arsenal a bully in the mid) they tend to to dive and cheat their way into the game. Anyway, sad to see Jack can't fulfill his potential, feel sad for him to be out injuries after injuries. Don't blame him for acting out abit because of that. Dele Ali just came out talking about injuries and lack of game time and scrutiny from the media does harm to him mentally. Hope current footballers who are going through the same path find safe outlets to express their feelings
I’ve never understood the juxtaposition between beef and fighting? Like are cows particularly grumpy and violent. Are cows The Mike Tyson of the farmyard animal kingdom. Or does eating beef cause anyone who isn’t vegan to just feel immense rage. Or does it just cause vegans immense rage because it’s beef. God I’m confused by all this. I’m getting too old
Long ago, but why the hell Jack..Why u never played like this anymore? ..And why arent U playing right now for a Club, after all U are still a good baller, I am 37 now..still remembering your skills on the field. Jack Play Football again!!!!!!!!!!! Greetings from Germany
that barcelona side was probably the best team, the world had ever seen. yes, they were beaten by inter milan, chelsea, etc. but the arsenal match was one where barca got beaten at their own game.
A friendly against Brazil! Or his 20 min cameo against hull in the cup final.. getting drunk on top of the bus spouting nonsense about Tottenham. Who cares
Definitely always going to be what if things were different he should be lucky he’s set for life while the average person has to work for pennies for that he got his millions while in the medic room
If you had played that one game and bossed it you, your friends, family, cats and mates down the pub would be talking about it the rest of your life and beyond.
Oh please English football can really embarrass itself at times. Jack has a good game English football journalists as normal fawns over it’s one slightly good player at the time. Ridiculous . Jack was good had lots of potential. His car crash tackling style of going in to 30%~70% not in his favour tackles and ruining his ankles destroyed his career much like Phil Jones kamikaze tackling. Brain dead all blood and thunder no intelligence style of playing
Ridiculously hard to get to the top level in football and then shine against the likes of Barca. Wondering if you’d be knocking yourself with even one season of Division Two football?
What a player Jack would have been..injuries really robbed us a chance to witness
Pepwas asked about Jack Wilshere he said "we have a academy full of Jack wilsheres" he wasn't that good too much coke and alcohol screwed him
So good to hear the inside stories for a world-class player! We love you jack, good luck with your new journey. Shout out from Cape Town South Africa
Eboue indeed had a sensational night vs Barca, probably the best performance in an Arsenal shirt for him. He was good player, felt maybe he lacked the consistency but he was a good servant of the club.
He was injured all the time that was his consistency
Jack wilshere is a great player, he’s just been very unlucky. I’d still have the lad at Arsenal . Good luck jack

I have to admit one of the few Arsenal players with a lot of balls. He ran Barca ragged that game English style!
Always listen to these three, brilliant and all complement each other and have a laugh.. keep it up lads great show

i remember that. we did get robbed. barca on their heels my boi. don’t forget it. that’s one of the best games we’ve played since i started supporting the club.
The second leg was stolen by criminal refereeing. Arsenal may not have won the tournament, but they deserved to go through to the next round.
I remember this game vividly. Barcelona battered Arsenal in the first half. I had never seen a top team go to another top teams ground and play them off the park like that. Barca went 2-0 and probably thought the game was done.
I'll never forget that red carry dad was launching beers about in furiousity
He was good that night. Saw glimpses after but didn't win enough trophies
Busquets doesn’t remember who Wilshere is.
No one remembers Biscuits.
We had high hopes of Jack but unfortunately the injuries kiled his career.
Jack was so good.. injuries killed him..shame he never went on to his potential
We got a glimpse of something very special that night, shame we didn’t get to see more of that Jack… we were totally robbed in that second leg.
seriously love jack... wish he can play again... so sad... i mean why won't people even give him a pay as you play contract
Best trio on talksport.
And they cheated on the second lag RVP was no supposed to get a red card.
Correct! When Arsenal were leading the tie the referee sent RvP off for nothing lol, only then did Barcelona score.
Same thing in 2009 against Chelsea.
