Eddie Howe pinched Jack Wilshere from under the nose of Alan Pardew in a dramatic Dragons\u2019 Den-style pitch in London on Tuesday night.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Wilshere was understood to have been impressed by the Palace boss and was ready to sign but when Howe arrived at the same London offices to make his pitch, his hard sell was enough to convince Wilshere, 24, to reject a move to Palace and move to the south coast.<\/p>\n
