FA Cup: Pressure on Jack Wilshere and Luton Town, says Forest Green boss Robbie Savage

While Savage played in the FA Cup first round during the early days of his career at Crewe Alexandra, the tie will be Wilshere’s first experience of the competition’s early rounds even though he is a two-time winner with Arsenal in 2014 and 2015.

“It’s the FA Cup, a competition I know well. I’ve had some amazing memories in it,” Wilshere told BBC Radio Three Counties.

“We know the importance of it. I know the importance of it in this country. We’ll be strong and we’ll be looking to win.”

The 33-year-old has overseen two wins – one in the EFL Trophy – and a defeat in his time in charge of Luton so far, and, while Friday’s opponents are two divisions below them, he said they would not take them lightly.

“I think he’s [Savage] a great character. He’s a great character for the game, his energy, and if you see his team, they play the way he is,” added Wilshere.

“It’ll be a test for us and we won’t be taking them lightly.”
