The 19-year-old has been out of action all season after aggravating an ankle injury he originally picked up on international duty in the summer. Wilshere, who underwent surgery on the problem in September, is happy with the progress of his rehabilitation and is hopeful of returning to the fold next month. "It's coming along well, I'm working hard in the gym every day and feel I'm in good hands at Arsenal," said Wilshere. "We've had a few injured at Arsenal in recent years, like Aaron Ramsey but they are helping me through it. "I can't put a specific date on it, but some time in January I'm hoping for if all goes well." Wilshere also believes Arsenal can still win the title after firing themselves back into contention at the top end of the table following a dreadful start to the campaign. Asked about Arsenal's title chances, Wilshere said: "Why not? Manchester City are strong favourites but if we carry on our run we'll keep plugging away. "Hopefully towards the end of the season they will slip up and we will keep going." Wilshere, meanwhile, has welcomed the idea of Arsene Wenger becoming England manager after Fabio Capello steps down at the end of Euro 2012. "If the boss at Arsenal wanted the job with England, I'd be delighted with that," he concluded.
