Eddie Howe believes lining up alongside Jack Wilshere is giving the rest of the Bournemouth squad a huge confidence boost.
Jack Wilshere has already made a positive impact at Bournemouth, according to manager Eddie Howe.
Wilshere joined Bournemouth on loan from Arsenal last Wednesday and made his first appearance in Saturday's 2-1 friendly defeat against AC Milan, which served as Warren Cummings' testimonial.
Despite having not yet spent a week at the south coast club, Howe believes Wilshere has had an impact leading to improvement throughout the squad.
"I hoped the signing and the high profile nature of the signing will give the lads that confidence that having a player like Jack Wilshere in your squad can give," said Howe.
