Re: Welcome to The Arsenal, Ben White
Ben White was on the receiving end of a verbal dressing-down from England’s assistant manager Steve Holland during the World Cup in Qatar.
Holland referenced an old White interview where the defender mentioned he has no interest in football unless he's playing.
Holland and White had an angry exchange in front of the entire team which likely lead to the player leaving the camp early and not being recalled to the England squad since.

Englands loss, particularly given his understanding with Saka and his ability to get up for the overlap, albeit often used to take a defender away from Saka.mcdowell42 wrote: ↑Thu Mar 14, 2024 9:00 pmBen White was on the receiving end of a verbal dressing-down from England’s assistant manager Steve Holland during the World Cup in Qatar.

Re: Welcome to The Arsenal, Ben White
White told Holland that the squad has too many Southgate favourites and he won’t be part of the squad until that changes. Edu rang Southgate to tell him not to bother with White unless he is going to be played in games. Arsenal announced his contract as a fuck off to Southgate/Holland.Stuart L (2) wrote: ↑Thu Mar 14, 2024 9:32 pmEnglands loss, particularly given his understanding with Saka and his ability to get up for the overlap, albeit often used to take a defender away from Saka.mcdowell42 wrote: ↑Thu Mar 14, 2024 9:00 pmBen White was on the receiving end of a verbal dressing-down from England’s assistant manager Steve Holland during the World Cup in Qatar.

Re: Welcome to The Arsenal, Ben White
I've got my money on Gareth "Red Rum" Southgate in the Gold Cup today. I'm sure he'll win by a nose.

I understand that the obscene wages in club football has totally changed the dynamics in a footballers career these days, and I know I can be labelled old fashioned saying this, but imo players should still see playing for their country as a massive honour regardless of how good or shit their national team is - imo clubs are buying your time as long as you are playing for them but if they decide they want to get rid of you then you are gone and no longer one of theirs, but you are always (in whites case) an englishman and should respect that. I remember the bad vibes over here towards roy keane long before saipan cos ferguscum kept pulling him out of international squads (like he did with giggs). If white had put in a few years in englands squad without ever progressing to the first 11 (like spit the scouser did) then I could understand him walking away to concentrate on his club career, but white is a different story and is only interested in himself, his sunbad and his tats and it isnt a good look imo

And like I keep reminding you, none of terry butcher, tony dorigo, john barnes or owen hargreaves (and there are others) were born in england and yet wore your shirt for years
Also make no mistake, our best players in that "golden era" were brady, mcgrath, bonner and whelan and were all 100% Irish
Re: Welcome to The Arsenal, Ben White
Well done Ben White. Club before country every time.
I stopped watching Internationals probably 10 years ago, I can't remember exactly but I fucking hate them. I think more of our players should refrain from playing for their country. >>>>> Les chance of injury <<<<<<< Gabriel Jesus for example.
This is simply my opinion, others may have different views which is fine.

The Irish specifically went out to look for tenuous links to Ireland. Cascarino had no actual link but he was welcomed onboard. His adoptive Grandfather was Irish and that was enough.

why did he not just say anything...hes thrown white under a bus
Re: Welcome to The Arsenal, Ben White
Whites right about boring Southgate, he's just like every other England manager I remember....... Always picks the same players in the big games, even if they were literally never playing for their clubs......Maguire, Henderson etc.
Southgate is a massive nose...... Sorry, prick! This story was all about fucking up Arsenal. Be prepared for more anti-, Arsenal media as the big games get closer for us.
