Yeah it's good he got us a medal and I'm only saying athletes should stick to their original countries. It was still a good performance.

Thing is with that, you may be born in Jamaica and then move to England. You grow up with this as your home, your pride and everything and you want to represent them. Then at the games you have to represent Jamaica.
