Jack Wilshere insists he was fit enough to represent England at the 2018 World Cup and believes he should be in the party travelling to Russia.
The Arsenal midfielder was one of the most high-profile omissions when manager Gareth Southgate named a youthful 23-man squad on Wednesday.
Wilshere has largely put a succession of debilitating injury problems behind him to play 38 times in all competitions for the Gunners this season.
However, a knee complaint robbed him of the chance to impress during March's friendlies against Netherlands and Italy and Southgate opted to go with alternative midfield options such as Manchester City's Fabian Delph and Chelsea youngster Ruben Loftus-Cheek.
