Jack Wilshere working HARD on rehab despite drinking PINT at Drake concert
ARSENE WENGER insists crocked Arsenal star Jack Wilshere is working 'very hard' on his rehabilitation despite being pictured holding a pint at a concert.
Wilshere is expected to miss the rest of the club season after breaking his foot during England's friendly victory over Denmark last month.
But despite a snap of Wilshere holding what appears to be a pint of lager during Canadian rapper Drake's concert at the O2 Arena this week, Wenger has no reason to doubt his star's commitment to recovering from injury.
"Jack needs more time [to recover], Wenger said. "I don't know exactly how long but he works very hard on his rehab.

"But its a fractured bone so you cannot accelerate that process.
When asked whether Wilshere has a chance of making Roy Hodgson's World Cup squad for Brazil this summer, Wenger was equally unequivocal.
"Yes for the World Cup certainly [Wilshere will be fit]," he added.
