Major Arsenal boost! Jack Wilshere among FIVE senior stars back in action

Jack Wilshere stepped up his return from injury by scoring and helping an Arsenal XI defeat Brentford on Tuesday.

The midfielder was part of a mixed side which took on Brentford at the Gunners' training base in London Colney.

He was among five senior stars to return to action, with Mikel Arteta, Mathieu Debuchy, Abou Diaby and Mathieu Flamini all starting alongside members of Steve Gatting's under-21 squad.

January signing Krystian Bielik also played as Arsenal ran out 4-0 against their Championship opponents.

Wilshere opened the scoring before setting up youngster Daniel Crowley for the second. Alex Iwobi completed the win with a brace.

Arteta, Wilshere and Diaby all played 45 minutes in the victory, while Debuchy and Flamini completed an hour.
