Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger was pleased to see an impressive outing from midfielder Jack Wilshere in the 1-0 win over Doncaster in the third round of Carabao Cup.
The 25-year-old, who was making his first start for the Gunners since May 2016, completed full 90 minutes at Emirates Stadium.
After the game, Wenger said: "I wanted to leave him on to give him 90 minutes and overall I think it was an ideal game for him tonight to gain confidence and fitness.
"We'll see after that how he will respond, normally he's alright after the game.
"For me he is available now to play and the decision I have to make is when to play him, but I think this kind of game in its 90 minutes at that intensity repeated and then he will soon be back.
"You see that in his movement it is natural and after that everybody is looking at him because of course everybody expects him to come back to his best and I wish that as well."
