Theo Walcott and Jack Wilshere set to feature for England

England are facing Denmark in Copenhagen on Wednesday night. Surprisingly two Arsenal players are set to feature for the national team and it is a great chance for both Theo and Jack. This doesn't happen often and both Arsenal and Wenger are criticised for not developing players for the national side. These criticisms will be stopping soon however as Walcott and Wilshere are set to become regulars for England and Kieran Gibbs is likely to be Ashley Cole's deputy in future teams.
Jack is set to make his first start for England.

 Fabio Capello has said that he wants Wilshere to play in a holding midfield role against Denmark. Arsene has said this wouldn't be a problem for young Wilshere at all as he has the talent to play anywhere in the midfield. Currently at Arsenal he has been playing in quite a deep midfield role anyway and I'm sure Jack will impress wherever he plays for England. He is likely to feature with Lampard in the midfield but in the future he is likely to develop a partnership with Jack Rodwell. Jack has the talent to feature for England for many years to come and on current form is a far better choice than Gareth Barry for the holding midfield role in the England team. After all Jack is only 19, and he is already a regular in the Premier Leauge for a side challenging for the title and is therefore good enough to play for his country.

Another hat trick from Theo?
 Theo Walcott has had a very mixed international career so far. He was amazingly picked for the 2006 world cup side without playing for Arsenal before hand. Even more surprisingly Fabio left him out of the 2010 side, picking the likes of Wright-Phillips instead. He has now realised his mistake and Theo looks set to play regularly on the right wing for England from now on. He has had his best season for Arsenal this season and will be hoping to take this onto the International stage. If he can have a couple of good games for England, he will become a certain starter on the right wing.

 Tomorrow night will be a good sign for both Jack and Theo to show what they can do in what should be an easy friendly against Denmark. Hopefully the duo will return to Arsenal injury free and then feature against Wolves at the weekend. Nicklas Bendtner will be playing against England and hopefully he won't get injured either. If Arsenal pick up any more injuries during the international friendlies it could be devastating for our season with the players we already have injured. Cesc and Robin have both pulled out of the international games citing illness. I don't believe they are ill, but that Wenger doesn't want them getting injured. Spain and Holland fans may not be pleased but as Arsenal fans it is good news they will be ready for the important games ahead.
