Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere insists he's not against non English-born athletes representing England.

To be clear, never said 'born in England' - I said English people should play for England. — Jack Wilshere (@JackWilshere) October 9, 2013
Great respect for people like KP, Mo Farah and Wilf Zaha - they make the country proud. — Jack Wilshere (@JackWilshere) October 9, 2013
My view on football - going to a new country when ur an adult, & because u can get a passport u play 4 that national team - I disagree — Jack Wilshere (@JackWilshere) October 9, 2013
