Back in hot water: Jack Wilshere takes a puff (Splash news)
Standard Sport15 July 2014

Jack Wilshere has been pictured smoking again.

The Arsenal midfielder is on holiday in Las Vegas following World Cup duty with England.

The 22-year-old was caught smoking outside a London nightclub in October last year. At the time, Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger said: “I disagree completely with that behaviour.”

Wilshere later apologised: “I’m not a smoker, so I think that will be my last one.”

It comes after Wilshere was criticised for his attitude as England's short spell at the World Cup ended.

Former Crystal Palace and QPR manager Ian Holloway wrote in his Mirror column: "He [Wilshere] seemed to take Roy Hodgson’s decision [to substitute him] as a personal insult."

Holloway added: "If that wasn’t bad enough, he then gave a post-match interview in which he said how hard it had been to motivate himself for the final game of England’s World Cup because he hadn’t started against either Italy or Uruguay and our fate had already been decided."

"I couldn’t believe it. Who the hell does this kid think he is?"
