Arsenal U18s coach Jack Wilshere has heaped praise on Michal Rosiak for his behavior in training. He claims that the Polish star is an example for his teammates as he stays back to practice free kicks.

Speaking to the Arsenal club website, Wilshere was in awe of the teenager after his freekick in the 4-0 win over Leicester City. He said:

"He's a great example to the players because he practices and practices. Of course, there are other sides to the game you can practice but he puts in serious dedication to his craft of taking freekicks. He actually tried a bit of a different technique today but it was unsavable. A great goal."

Wilshere also spoke about Osman Kamara after his brace in the same. He added:

"It's been tough for him at times this year because teams are doubling up on him and he's got to find new ways to beat his man. The goals today gave him confidence and I was happy with his performance today."

Jack Wilshere's side moved to third in the South table of the U18 PL. They are two points ahead of Chelsea, who have two games in hand.
