Coyle delighted with Gunners signing

Bolton have completed the loan signing of highly-rated Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere. As revealed by skysports.com earlier this week, Bolton beat off competition from other clubs to land the England Under 21 international. Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger is happy to loan out Wilshere so that he can continue his development with first-team opportunities limited at the Emirates. Wilshere has signed on loan until the end of the season and he has been included in the squad for this weekend's game at Liverpool. Trotters boss Owen Coyle was delighted to land the prodigious midfielder. "Jack is a talented, young, hungry player who I think has got a bright future ahead of him," Coyle told the club's official website. "He has got an abundance of quality and he will enhance our squad. "It is similar to the deal with Vladimir Weiss in terms of the belief that I can help the player and the player can help this football club. "The deals suit all parties concerned if the boys go and deliver on the pitch." Meanwhile, Bolton have turned Paul Robinson's loan move into a permanent deal. Robinson initially joined Bolton on loan from West Brom in the summer and he has now earned a long-term stay at the Reebok Stadium.
