Image for West Ham United: Fans react to injury update on Jack Wilshere

Supporters of West Ham United have reacted to the latest injury news on Jack Wilshere, which will see him miss the remainder of the season.

The former Arsenal prodigy was recently shared images from a recent hernia operation which will see him miss the remainder of the season (via The Sun), which had some fans wanting the middleman gone following a discussion on Twitter via West Ham News.

Should West Ham look to cut their losses on Jack Wilshere and move him on?

Yes, he just doesn't play enough sadly

No, he will come good for us eventually

Since the Englishman’s signing in the summer of 2018 on a three-year deal (as per BBC), the 28-year-old midfielder has featured in just 16 games for the Hammers, having scored once and assisted once (per Transfermarkt).

This season, he has featured just eight times and scored once (per Transfermarkt), with injuries marring his time at the London Stadium (per The Telegraph), and fans were clear in their opinion on the midfielder.

What do we think?

It is fair to say that across his career, Wilshere, who is valued at £7.2 million (as per Transfermarkt), has been plagued by injuries wherever he has gone (as per Transfermarkt).

While it is a shame for the player, clubs cannot afford to bankroll players who do not play for large swathes of the season and as many fans have argued, the club may have to look to move him on.
