Manuel Pellegrini is inspiring a bit of a transfer revolution, this summer. Jack Wilshere signing for the Hammers and Yarmalenko looks like being next. Hopefully they can translate this excitement into a good season of football. #WHUFC

OPINION
This is a good move for Jack Wilshere. After all the injury problems he’s had over the last few seasons at Arsenal, it will be good for him to get a change of environment and take on a new challenge. There are a number of former Arsenal players who have left The Emirates and improved as a result, including the likes of Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain, Wojciech Szczesny and Serge Gnabry, Wilshere will hope he can do the same. He knows that he’s going to play every week and be their most important player, which is a good feeling for a player to have. He has raised the club’s stature by signing, but it’s now up to him to perform.
