Pearce pledges to guard Wilshere
UNDER-21: Stuart Pearce has assured Arsene Wenger they will handle Arsenal's Jack Wilshere with the greatest of care as the England Under-21 side prepare for their European Championship play-off against Romania tomorrow night.
Wilshere is likely to play at Carrow Road before he joins the senior squad for next Tuesday’s Euro 2012 qualifying tie against Montenegro at Wembley.
The Under-21s play the return leg of their play-off in Botosani on the same day.
