Jack Wilshere gets the last laugh with Bukayo Saka remark after claims of bias – Mirror Online

by Leave a Comment

Ex-Arsenal midfielder Jack Wilshere feared he’d be accused of bias after he claimed England fans aren’t fully aware of just how good Bukayo Saka is – they do now, after the winger’s inspired display against Iran.

Wilshere discussed the 21-year-old Gunners star before the Three Lions’ opening game of the Qatar World Cup when it was still unclear whether Saka would be named in Gareth Southgate’s starting XI. The former Arsenal star and England international explained how he would have been shocked had the forward not made the line-up.

Debate among the England fanbase over whether Saka or Manchester City’s Phil Foden should start was rife before kick-off, but Southgate ended up opting for the in-form Emirates hero, something Wilshere had predicted all along.

Writing in The Sun, the now-retired midfielder explained: “I wonder if the England fans realise what a truly great player we have in Bukayo Saka. Yes, I know I’ll be accused of bias because Bukayo plays for Arsenal but, honestly, he has special gifts.

“What amazes me about him is he always makes the right decision, it’s incredible.

“It is so rare for a young player – he’s only just turned 21 – to instinctively know what is right in any given situation. I stress with my Arsenal Under-18 players to study him.”

HAVE YOUR SAY! Should Saka be one of the first names on the England teamsheet moving forward? Comment below

Wilshere will be hoping his Arsenal youth stars were watching on Monday afternoon, as Saka proved just too hot for Iran to handle.

Less than 18 months after his European Championship penalty heartache, the Gunners winger showed no sign of any emotional hangover as he bagged twice on his World Cup debut.

The first of his goals came midway through the first half, with Saka responding fastest to a loose ball after Harry Maguire’s header was blocked. The Hale End academy graduate fired a lethal volley into the roof of the net to double England’s advantage following Jude Bellingham’s opener.

Saka wasn’t done there, with more goal-scoring heroics to come after the interval.

England went in at the break 3-0 up courtesy of Raheem Sterling’s strike just before half-time and Saka put the game beyond any doubt with his second and the Three Lions’ fourth.

Saka held his nerve inside the penalty area to beat the oncoming challenges of two Iran defenders and then proceeded to calmly slot his left-footed strike into the bottom corner of the net.

The Arsenal star was eventually replaced by Marcus Rashford, who also got on the scoresheet just minutes after being brought on. Saka’s performance ensured Wilshere’s pre-match praise was more than justified.

Twitter mob attacks Rob Schneider, misses his point about mob insanity — but Schneider gets last laugh

“Saturday Night Live” alum Rob Schneider dominated the trending topics on Twitter this week after sharing an emotional story on “The Glenn Beck Podcast” to illustrate how our country is taking a “step back into that darkness” and why he is “willing to lose it all” to fight for his “children and the country they’re going to live in.”

Schneider could have stayed a Hollywood liberal, with all the privileges that entails, or at least stayed silent. But instead, he chose to speak out and push back against the “stranglehold” of the Democratic Party after seeing “that it was no longer protecting the rights of the individual.”

“Are you willing to lose it all for what you believe? Glenn asked Schneider.

“Absolutely,” Schneider answered. “Because if we don’t have it, then we have nothing. … I don’t care about my career any more. I care about my children and the country that they’re going to live in,” he added.

“My hope is this. My hope is a beautiful story from a chaplain in England,” Schneider explained.

“When the American flyers came over in the early days of World War II … their friends were getting blown out of the sky. They would go over in the bombers and half would come back or two-thirds would come back … and there was one particularly awful week or two weeks where there was a very high percentage of these pilots getting blown out of the sky.”

“They went to the Air Force Chapel, and a pilot said ‘Our friends are dying. Why should we do this?’ […] The chaplain … said, ‘Humanity has come out of the dark ages. We’ve come out of where people get burned at the stake, people believe and people go along with this. There’s a darkness that we have come out of into more of an enlightened period, a freer period. […] This is a step back into that darkness. It is the darkest parts of humanity, and we need to stand up for that now. And that requires this.’ So they all flew.”

Schnieder went on to add, “I do feel a sacrifice that’s required, and we gotta do it because we were lucky, man, we grew up in a boom time in America.”

\u201cOn the Glenn Beck Podcast, @RobSchneider tells me why he’s “ABSOLUTELY” willing to lose it all for what he believes: “I DON’T CARE about my career anymore. I care about my children and the country they’re going to live in.”\u201d

A video clip posted on Twitter has been viewed nearly 2 million times as of this writing. Some people, such as the Daily Wire’s Gina Carano, actually watched the just-over-two-minute video and thus understood what Schneider was saying. “I’ll fly with ya,” tweeted the former “Mandalorian” actress.

Predictably, the ignorant liberal mob did what ignorant liberal mobs do, grabbing their virtual torches and pitchforks and joining the echo chamber of unhinged, unoriginal mockery. Some “roasted” Schneider’s career, others got hung up on whether or not he’s a Trump supporter (because absolutely everything is still about former President Donald Trump and apparently will be until the end of time), and a few even decided to drag Adam Sandler into the fracas for no other reason than the two comedians are friends and “frequently work together.”

Schneider responded on Wednesday by tweeting a photo of the crowd at his stand-up comedy show, complete with the caption: “I prioritize supporting a country that provides the same Freedoms for my children that made my career possible. This legacy to me is more important to me than the next chapter of my career. Love, Rob.”
