    Looking at this again- if he says that only players who genuinely feel patriotic for a country should be allowed to play for that country then he has a point.

    He gets into a mess defining what it takes to be English, and then trying to sell it with his 'hard to beat' fist pumping.

    He needs to get his head down and stop making a clown of himself for the press, that's all

And in that case I don't think he's said anything too controversial.

    I don't think it goes any deeper than that, to the levels of him wanting the likes of Mo Farah and or any non White, non British born Brit to to represent England. I'm pretty sure with Mo being a massive gooner and visiting the training ground often they're actually good friends. There's probably even a tweet of Jack cheering on Mo during the Olympics or at least a picture of the two of them.

    The problem is that with Jack being as thick as shit, he wasn't able to articulate his point well and the media, being the media, have blown this out of proportion and painted him as the next Nick Griffin which is ridicolous as he plays for a club that has an influx of foreign players and a foreign coach all of which he seems to get on with perfectly fine. At any rate, hopefully he realises that he isn't able to express himself that well and decides to just shut the fuck up and focus on his football.
    This post sums it all up perfectly.

    If Jack's saying what I think he's saying then he's right, but he's too stupid to articulate it properly, the press were always going to twist it and following hot on the heels of cig-gate he should have shut his yap.

    Still, nice that we're all behind one of our own isn't it.

    The advice here, generally seems to be for him to Stfu and concentrate on his game. Which seems to be pretty spot on advice.

    You can't just defend anything someone does or says just because he's an Arsenal player.
    That said, I don't think he's said anything outrageous. It was just clumsily put, always going to cause a media shitstorm in a boring week and he should have known better than to comment.

    What does stfu-ing and concentrating on football mean exactly? He fulfilled a media obligation with his national team. He just happened to poorly articulate an answer to a delicate question. It's hardly related to his training or his performances.

    I get that, but I guess I'm just imeadiately protective of our own players. Us against the world and all that.

    I remember Mr Arsenal smashing his car into a brick wall whilst pissed up, doing time in prison, and still being adored by the fans.

    I'm never going to condone that kind of behaviour, but I think it's a little bit unfair, that having been posed a question by the dribbling cunts in the media, Jack's now public enemy number one, with even some of our own fans getting on his case.

    He may be a bit thick, but fuck it, it's what he does on the pitch that counts, and he's clearly a very talented footballer. I'd like to see him fulfill his potential, but he won't if he's going to get beaten down by all and sundry.
