CHRIS SUTTON: Ben White will regret refusing England at the end of his career - it's a stance I once took against Glenn Hoddle and still rue the decision to this day

Daily Mail  

If Ben White is refusing to represent England because of a grudge, he will regret this stance at the end of his career — even more so if it means missing out on Euro 2024.I am certain of it. Ben White has refused his latest England call-up from Three Lions manager Gareth Southgate If White is refusing to represent England because of a grudge, he will regret this stance at the end of his career Your browser does not support iframes. The Daily Mirror ran one poll which asked readers to describe my decision — 51 per cent said I was ‘arrogant’, 29 per cent said ‘stupid’ and 20 per cent said ‘brave’. England have lost a right-back who has been electric for Arsenal throughout the season Chris Sutton was exiled from the England set-up after previously refusing to play for the reserve team Maybe the full story will emerge someday, but I’m glad that Southgate has said the door is still open.
