Jack Wilshere is top of the table for Premier League passing accuracy as he settles down well at Bournemouth during his loan spell from Arsenal

Jack Wilshere has given Bournemouth a huge lift and looks to be in great form for the south coast club

JACK WILSHERE leads the way as the Premier League's best passer with a 89.1% passing accuracy. 

Wilshere moved to Bournemouth on loan in the summer from Arsenal as his route to return for the team he has been at since a boy was blocked by the likes of Granit Xhaka, Francis Coquelin, Aaron Ramesy and Santi Cazorla.

It appears the move has done the England midfielder the world of good in terms of playing regularly on the south coast and Bournemouth are reaping the benefits.

Arsene Wenger wanted Wilshere to join Bournemouth because of the similar style of play that Eddie Howe has brought to the team.

As Wilshere tops the table of passing accuracy he is followed by four Arsenal players in the top six showing just how important it was for the 24 year old to join the right team on loan.

With Arsenal's game based on the quick tempo passing game Wenger will be over the moon the player he sees as Arsenal captain in the future is continuing with the style of play he has been taught his whole footballing life.

A run in the team at Bournemouth in the Premier League gives Wilshere the platform to show that he is still one of the best midfielders in the country and he has finally got over his injury hell.

Arsenal are looking good at the moment and certainly look like they are serious contenders for the title and other silverware.

If the Gunners do win the League then Wilshere will be desperate to be part of the team next season although their will be some regret and he wasn't part of the squad.
