Burnley were all set to sign Arsenal youngster Jack Wilshere in a loan deal this week but injuries at the Emirates have certainly delayed the deal at best.

They are currently without midfielders Denilson and Cesc Fabregas and that has meant a rethink for Gunners' boss Arsene Wenger who could now use Wilshere in their own FA Cup tie this weekend.

Currently it looks as though they will review the situation in a couple of weeks time so the deal is certainly not dead and could be resurrected during January.
