Bournemouth boss Howe to start Wilshere against Man City

Bournemouth boss Eddie Howe will hand Jack Wilshere a first start against Manchester City today.

The Sun says the on-loan Arsenal midfielder was forced to undergo a precautionary scan on his left ankle on Monday.

After feeling no ill effects, the 24-year-old is set to be thrown into the mix from the start against Pep Guardiola's side at the Etihad.

Bournemouth boss Eddie Howe was determined not to take any risks with the star.
