Bolton Wanderers boss Owen Coyle says Arsenal loan signing Jack Wilshere will see action tonight against Manchester City.

Coyle has yet to decide whether the 19-year-old will start or come off the bench against Roberto Mancini's men.

But the Reebok chief is convinced the England Under-21 star has a major role to play in Wanderers' survival fight.

"He's very much in my thoughts," said Coyle. "I was disappointed and frustrated for Jack against Fulham but it's fair to say you'll see him tonight.

"For such a young lad, he has a terrific football brain. He's very composed and likes to pass and move the ball, which is what we are trying to do so we're not one-dimensional.

"Like young Vladimir, he's got a lot to learn because they are young boys but they've both got natural talent and a desire to be Premier League players and they will add another dimension to our play."
