BOURNEMOUTH, Howe on WILSHERE: \"He was brave to join a smaller club. This environment can be good for him\"

Published on: 26 September 2016

Bournemouth manager Eddie Howe, coming from a 1-0 victory over Everton and talking about Arsenal loanee Jack Wilshere, stated:

“I believe our environment can be good for him, because the players work incredibly hard, they push themselves to improve and I think that’s a healthy environment for any footballer – and that’s why I think he decided to come here, ultimately.

He’s picked a very brave decision, for me. He’s gone to a smaller club, he’s gone somewhere where there’s not everything here, there’s not everything done for him. It’s slightly old-fashioned in the way, that it’s like a step back in time for him compared with other Premier League clubs, and I think he deserves a huge amount of credit for that.

We don’t have the facilities that other clubs would have. That’s a fact, it’s not a criticism, it’s just an observation and the fact that he’s willing to come here for footballing reasons rather than anything else I think speaks volumes for his decision".
