Arsenal star Ben White has come in for some heavy criticism after rejecting a call-up to the England national side.
England manager Gareth Southgate recently revealed that White does not want to be called up for the national team.

White has not been with the England camp since requesting to leave during the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
Former Tottenham Hotspur star Jamie O'Hara has slammed the Gunners defender for not honouring the call-up.
"Very few people get the opportunity to represent their country," O’Hara told Grosvenor Sport.
For Ben White to turn that down because he doesn’t want to sit on the bench or because he doesn’t like watching football? I’m sorry, but I think you’re a bit of a disgrace to be honest.
“Do you know how many people will give their right arm to just sit on the bench for England and have the opportunity to represent their nation?
"Then you’ve got this guy who goes, ‘oh, I don’t really like football’ and ‘Gareth Southgate hasn’t really given me a chance’. Do me a favour – it’s your country for crying out loud!"
