Arsenal star Wilshere apologises for cigarette smoking

Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere has apologised to the club's supporters after being photographed smoking a cigarette outside a night club. The Gunners' midfielder repaid Arsene Wenger's faith with an equalising goal against WBA on Sunday evening.

Wilshere has been criticised by Arsenal's manager Arsene Wenger for being caught smoking and the Gunners' boss has seemingly forgiven the 21-year-old central midfielder for the incident.


"Players make mistakes. I am not a smoker. I spoke with the boss and he asked me what happened, I explained to him and we sorted it out," said Wilshere.


"He put me in the team and hopefully I repaid him. I am not a smoker so I think that will be my last [cigarette]."
