Jack Wilshere bets £3000 with Twitter fans that Arsenal will finish above TottenhamThe 19-year-old is confident his side will end the season above their bitter rivals, and has taken to the social networking site to challenge Spurs fans to a charity wager
Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere has promised to donate £3000 (?3500) to charity if Tottenham finish above the Gunners in the Premier League this season.
The England international took to Twitter to challenge Spurs fans to the bet, and asked them to each donate a pound to his chosen cause if Arsene Wenger's side come out on top of their north London rivals at the end of the campaign.
Wilshere tweeted: “All Spurs fans buzzing that they are ahead of us in the league (for once). It's a marathon, not a sprint!
"I tell you what at the end of the season if Spurs finish above Arsenal I will give £3000 to charity.
"If Arsenal finish above Spurs every Spurs fan that follows me must send me a pound each and I will give it to @Jack_Marshall_ charity!
"Do we have a deal THFC fans!?"Both sides currently find themselves in fine form after slow starts to the campaign, with Harry Redknapp’s side moving into third spot after last night's 2-0 win over Aston Villa, while the Gunners sit in seventh following their 2-1 victory over Norwich on Saturday.
