Bournemouth's Jack Wilshere Hails 'Unbelievable' Liverpool Ahead of Sunday's Clash

Published on: 29 November 2016

Bournemouth's on-loan midfielder Jack Wilshere has described Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool as "unbelievable" ahead of the side's meeting on Sunday.


The Reds make the trip to the south coast one point behind league leaders Chelsea in second place, after an excellent start to the season.


And Wilshere has admitted he wasimpressed after watchingLiverpool's 4-3 win over Arsenal at the Emirateson the opening day of the season from the substitutes bench.


"They're a good team," the 24-year-old said - viaMetro.


"When I was at Arsenal for the first game of the season when we played them I was on the bench and they were unbelievable.

"They press from the front, when we lost the ball they pressed straight away and won it in dangerous positions so we know what we're going to get from them."


Speaking in an interview withSky Sports, Wilshere added that helping out his parent club Arsenal with a win over a potentialtitle rival isn't a priority going into the game.


"You don't think about that before the game. That comes after the game," he said.


"When we're building up to the game, we are working on what we think is going to hurt Liverpool and you are just thinking about winning the game for Bournemouth.

"Then after game, if you pick up a result and look at the table, you think 'that helped Arsenal out.' Hopefully this week we can do that."


Asked how he would feel if the Gunners were to win the Premier League this season, he added: "I'd be happy for them [if Arsenal won the title]. Someone asked me if it would be strange, but I've been there for that long and I know the manager and we have a good relationship. I know that's the one he wants the most.


"I'd be happy for them. Of course, it would be a little bit strange because I'm not there and you'd see all the celebrations, but I'm an Arsenal man, I've been there for many years, and I want them to do well."
