Arsene Wenger informed reporters in a recent press conference that he has never smoked a shisha pipe in his life. The Arsenal boss made this statement after Roy Hodgson revealed he was no stranger to hitting the hookah as a means of defending Jack Wilshere. Wilshere, who is also an integral part of the English squad, has attracted controversy in recent months after repeatedly being spotted smoking either cigarettes or a hookah pipe.
The French manager had earlier defended his 23 year old talented midfielder, when the pictures of Wilshire holding a shisha pipe were leaked on Instagram. While Wenger doesn’t smoke shisha he himself is no stranger to smoking cigarettes as previous footage from his days as the Monaco manager proves that!
Wenger said,
“Some people must love it because they do it,”
“I never tried, so I cannot tell you anything about that.”
