Arsenal star Jack Wilshere can produce 'a moment of brilliance' that most other players in his position aren't capable of, according to former Gunner Martin Keown.
Wilshere played the full match against Red Star Belgrade in the Europa League on Thursday night as Arsenal drew 0-0.
It was the midfielder's third start in Europe this season and Sportsmail columnist Keown was left impressed with his performance.

He told BT Sport: 'What I like about Jack is he is able to thrust from midfield like no other player can in that central position.
'He's finishing games, he's coming on stronger in the matches. Look at the ball he played in there, weight of pass, vision.
'There's players all around him and within a second, a moment of brilliance, he's away and out of trouble.'

Keown also believes the 25-year-old, who wasn't selected by Gareth Southgate for the latest England friendlies against Germany and Brazil, is still one of a kind.
'I don't see anybody else, there aren't too many players that can do this in the Premier League,' he added.
'That's why the debate will rage as to whether or not he should be going into the England squad even at this early stage of his recovery.
Manager Gareth Southgate named his latest England squad on Thursday afternoon
'You've got to remember that this is the B string Arsenal team, he needs to get into that A team. It's almost as if he's on trial every week.
'It's great to see him back in an Arsenal shirt and he's not far away now.'
