And, in a bid to replace it, he has tried to contact Wilshere on social media but with no success.

As it turned out, Dawson entered the pitch at the end of the match.

Although Wilshere was perfectly happy to hand over his shirt, matchday stewards quickly snatched it away from him.

It's left the Arsenal supporter very much down in the dumps after enjoying a magnificent victory and the thrill of Wilshere's gift.
