Jack Wilshere: Ex-England player out of ‘comfort zone’ in Norwich coaching role

Having reached the Championship play-offs last season under former boss David Wagner, Norwich are currently eighth in the table, just two points outside the top six, as they try again to secure a return to the Premier League.

So how is Wilshere finding the job of trying to hone the skills of the likes of Josh Sargent, Borja Sainz, Marcelino Nunez and Lewis Dobbin?

“I’ve had a career that was up, down, up, down, a lot of injuries, some injuries maybe could have been avoided, but I always tried to look at it with no regrets and just try and move forward,” he said.

“When you’re in an academy and you’re an ex-player and not too far away from the game, recently retired, there’s always like a feeling that it’s different coaching Under- 16s, 17s, 18s than it is to men.

“That was probably the thing that I was trying to get most out of at the start and trying to understand how to work with them, understand what they need in terms of information in sessions, information before games, and, yeah, I’ve really enjoyed it.

“There are different challenges when you’re working with 18s, of setting up a session or dealing with their emotions – these guys are men, they’re professionals, they want to win, they want to get promoted, and they want to know the best way to do that, so it’s a different way of thinking, but I’m really enjoying it.”
