Arsenal U18 coach Wilshere: 5-goal Chido has been sensational

Arsenal U18 coach Jack Wilshere was full of praise for Chido Martin Obi after their 8-1 win at West Ham.

The Dane scored five goals in the win on Saturday.

Wilshere enthused to arsenal.com: "He was unbelievable again, and I'm proud of the whole club with him, the coaches at Hale End, and everyone.

"The work that they have put into his development goes unseen. Chido has improved so much; his hold-up play, playing back to goal, and the way he links and presses have improved massively.

"A big credit to him because to score five goals is not easy, no matter how good you are. As a player, the hardest part is to continuously put the ball in the back of the net, and over the last four or five games, he's been sensational."
