JACK WILSHERE PLAYED a rare full match for Arsenal in Wednesday’s narrow 1-0 win over Doncaster Rovers.
The oft-injured midfielder, who spent last season on loan to Bournemouth, had not played a complete game for the Gunners since a showdown with Southampton in the early part of the 2014/15 season.
Wednesday’s cup match was also Wilshere’s first start for Arsene Wenger’s side in 492 days.
Theo Walcott scored the game’s only goal to see Arsenal advance to the fourth round where they will face Norwich.
