    That said, Jack should shut his yap about things like this. He has a right to an opinion but is it really a good idea to be spouting it in the media?

    said this in earlier post, its nice to see players actually give opinions. instead of just spouting the usual, we will do our best, good team spirit etc that we all get annoyed about with Arsenal, especially wenger. obviously if he came out with something stupid like "ban all foreigners from living in Britain" then yes we should worry, however he gave an honsest answer, a fair answer on an issue that actually does need to be debated in football because otherwise we run the risk of international football becoming like club football with signing players.


    and i dont get our media, why ask a question of a player, twist his words, and basically make sure that no player is likely to want to speak to you again? if i was a player and saw what they did to jack for an honest answer, id probally never talk to them. they cant do a job then so why do they do it?

    Yeah, Ollie. It's come as a massive shock to us all that the media have made a fuss about this.
    It's a sensitive subject, anyone with any nous would have known it was something it wasn't wise to talk about.
    Jack endlessly plays up to the thick player stereotype.
    Just shut your yap, Jack, and concentrate on your game.

    Determining nationality is stupid. I was born in UAE and lived 18 years but I am not a citizen. I have lived in the US for over 11 years and I am not a citizen. I am a citizen of Bangladesh since my parents are from there but I have never lived there. I can get married to an American tomorrow and become American.. does that make me American? What is the basis or time frame for when a person becomes 'English' or 'American' or from any other country?

    Frankly speaking, if you have a passport from that country, you should be eligible for that country. Players, pundits and any other opinion should be put in a bin and shat on tbh. If Adnan Janujaz or some other player stays five years in UK, becomes a citizen and plays for England, good for him! Jack shouldve just avoided that question and let his football do the talking... lord knows his football has done fuck all for a long time!

    this topic has brought a highly inappropriate joke out. made me piss myself with laughter though.

    im not shocked the media made a huge fuss of it, however by twisting his words like they do with countless others, they will eventually get nothing as no one will want to talk to them because they just write what they want anyway.

    yes Jack should have said nothing, and should focus on his game however he didnt say anything outrageous. everyone on here since ive posted has pretty much all said the same thing, if you live in a country for five years, it doesnt make you that nationailty and therefore shouldnt play

    nobody is twisting his words. He is talking out of his arse, and then making it worse with his 'clarification'

    claiming a press conspiracy makes you sounds like a Liverpool fan. Give it a rest.

    lets just take Januazj for example. he can choose to play for about five countries right now. how is that right? this situation becomes like club football. the clubs all have their offers on the tables and the players chooses the right offer. international sport, not just football, is not about picking which country suits your needs the most, its about playing for YOUR country. what Jack said is spot on. he hasnt said anyone not born in england cant play, he hasnt said anything racist, hes just said anyone who isnt english but has lived in england for the qualifiying period shouldnt play as they arent english which is spot on

    He told BBC Sport: "I am of the opinion that to be English you should be born in England. Maybe with the state of English football we haven't got enough world-class players.
    That is a direct quote from Alan Shearer. now what he said about being born in england is utter bollocks. My entire family is english, however i was born in switzerland as mum and dad worked out there for a couple of years. So in Shearers mind, im not english despite my brothers, parents, grandparents being english. that is utter bollocks. suprisiningly there has been no mention of this quote though
