Wojciech Szczesny undoubtedly the star name in Jack Wilshere’s dream five-a-side team

Sort of...

Naming your dream five-a-side team is all the rage these days.

Not so long ago, Gary Lineker told JOE all about the attack-heavy quintet he’d select and we’ve also heard from the likes of Kevin De Bruyne, David Luiz and Dimitar Berbatov on their ideal footballing fivesomes in recent months, too.

This week, Jack Wilshere has shared his dream-five-a-side line-up.

The Arsenal midfielder has stayed loyal to his Arsenal teammate Wojciech Szczesny (he’s still on their books), naming him as his goalkeeper.

Other than that, the rest of his lineup isn’t really up to much…

Some bloke named Lionel Messi is joined by former England captain David Beckham, and World Cup winners Zinedine Zidane and Ronaldinho. Not exactly on the same level as Szczesny, are they?

While former Real Madrid teammates Beckham and Zidane have called time on their playing days, their old El Clasico rival Ronaldinho is clinging on to his – just about.

Currently without a club, the Brazilian showcased what he’s still capable of with a ball at his feet when he appeared in the recent Indian Futsal competition.

We’re still not sure if he’s worthy of being on Szczesny’s team, however.
