Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere admits his upcoming one-match ban may prove to be a blessing in disguise.
Wilshere also said that he is hopeful team-mate Theo Walcott will sign a new deal and stay with Arsenal. Walcott's contract expires at the end of the season but he was back in the starting line-up in Schalke and scored the opener in a 2-2 draw. "Theo has been great," said Wilshere. "His future is down to him and the boss to sort out. "I hope he does sign. He has been great for us. He's an English lad and great to have around."
