The future of English football is looking bright.

Or a young man who works 6 days a week spending some time with his mates, enjoying himself during the 3 or 4 weeks where he actually gets a break?

Brilliant way of getting fit for the new season, glad to see they are doing all they can to put right the embarrassment of Englands World Cup campaign

Your holidays must be a right laugh: do you take the laptop with you so you can prepare yourself for the following week at work?

What do you expect from a bunch of English dimwits on holiday abroad. Booze, fags and tattoos. Oh, and football shirts. Full house.
I guess that means you don't mess around in a pool, drink and kiss blokes on your holidays ?

I guess if there are also pictures of him lying comatose in a pool of his own vomit, being arrested for punching random strangers or having his stomach pumped in the nearest ER, it might be cause for concern.
But he's on holiday from work- a holiday sanctioned by his club, one assumes- and he's having a drink. Alright, and a fag. Pffffft. It makes him neither a chain smoker nor an alcoholic. If he'd been doing it the week before the World Cup, we- as England fans- may have cause for complaint, but really, I couldn't care less what an Arsenal player does on his day off. Arsenal fans might do, I suppose.

I agree with you. He's not doing anything wrong or illegal; certainly nothing I wouldn't have done in my 20s (snogging Joe Hart apart).

Wilshere seems to be struggling to live up to the expectations of his early career anyway, so I doubt a couple of vodkas in a Las Vegas footballer-crèche will make much difference.
Has he done much for several seasons apart from getting repeatedly injured, batting off one or two other rumours, oh and coming on as a sub in an FA Cup game and assisting in knocking us out?

How DARE he.
How VERY dare he.
Next you'll be telling me he treated himself to a PUDDING.

I'm not sure which is more of a non-story - this one or the Beckham children wearing Argie shirts.

I still think he should sign for Everton.

I think you will find he takes his punch hole machine with him in case there are any returns from Thailand that need stamping.

Now that made me laugh. 6 days? These players don't know the meaning of the word "work".

I'm pretty sure that the pre-season will be where the whole 'getting fit' kicks in.
The only way they could 'put right' the WC campaign would be to travel back in time and, whilst I like Joe Hart, I can't imagine that his grasp of applied theoretical physics is enough to pull it off. That leaves them with the option of public apologies and, presumably, weeping OR taking a holiday to refresh and ignore the constant drone from media and fans.
If they then go on holiday, and don't do anything illegal, then they can (and should) do whatever they like. If it impacts on their performances early in the season I'd think it likely that their respective managers will make it known that they're not happy.
Edit; I've just twigged what Wilshere's up to, he's clearly following the George Best programme, he'll tear it up next year!

Don't wait for me!
After todays grumpy old man sensationalism in this and the beckham kid's day support, can't we have a new emoticon? Maybe a George cross?

You think other countries players don't act in a similar way? Stop kidding yourself, I'm not sure why people are so obsessed with what footballers get up to on their holidays, just because they are footballers doesn't mean they can't have 'fun' every now & again, as long as they remain professional with their club.
