People saying Wilshere ain't good enough to get in the Real Madrid side are possibly the same ones who claimed that Fabregas would be nothing but a sub at Barca.
If you watch the system Real Madrid play, what they are missing is a playmaker in the Xavi mould who can pick the lock, whilst playing further forward. They have Ozil of course, who is top quality but is playing as more of a number 10.
Lassana Diarra will leave almost certainly next summer, meaning Alonso will play the deep-seated holding role (as he does now) and meaning that Wilshere can be the Xavi-style midfielder just ahead of him. The Madrid midfield is one of their less outstanding areas imo, Coentrao is a full-back playing in midfield for instance etc...Wilshere is definitely good enough to play for them.
Once a red Always a Red.
Like Cashley, or like Wayne 'Once a Blue, always a Blue' Rooney

Xabi Alonso won't play the deep seated role, whilst Khedira is there - and surely at this moment in time - Jack isn't good enough to get in a team that has Di Maria, Ozil, Khedira, Xabi Alonso, Kaka and Sahin - Jack will be class, but a move now would be a bad move for him
