Arsenal midfielder sees signs of his old self as he continues recovery from injury ahead of Watford match

Jack Wilshere feels he is close to rediscovering his best football ahead of Arsenal's Premier League match at Watford on Saturday.

The 25-year-old is yet to play in the League this season but is pleased with his present fitness levels and wants to put it into practice with game time at Vicarage Road.

“I always hear the boss say it is my first five-metre burst, when I receive the ball and to get away from defenders, and I feel that’s getting better and better each day,” Wilshere says in an interview with Arsenal’s official website.

"My fitness levels, if I’m honest, are probably the best they’ve ever been."
