Ben White of Arsenal has been left out of Gareth Southgate's most recent England team, according to Ben Foster.
The decision by the Three Lions manager, 52, to leave the 25-year-old right-back out of his England team sparked questions.
The three youngsters that are in as right full-backs, we've got them as just ahead of those two, he remarked in a news conference last week. The depth of talent in that position is a blessing.
Foster, who represented England and earned eight caps, asserted that there is more to the former Brighton center-omission back's than first appears to be the case.
The 39-year-old former Manchester United goalkeeper claimed there had been something going on there.
Questions were raised when the Three Lions boss, 52, decided to leave the 25-year-old right-back off of his England squad.
He said in a news conference last week that we have the three young players who are in as right full-backs as just ahead of those two. The position's plethora of talent is a blessing.
Foster, an eight-cap member of the England national team, argued that the former Brighton center-omission back is more complex than first meets the eye.
The former Manchester United goalie, who is now 39, asserted that something had been going on.
He does it every week, I noticed. He is participating in aims. He participates in helps for enjoyment.
"He's playing really, very well, Arsenal are in great shape, and these are the kinds of players you should be selecting when you're naming your England group," the coach said.
"Whatever occurred in the World Cup happened," he continued. I don't know anything about it. Yet there has been something else going on.
"It's just wrong," I said. Harry Maguire and other players of that caliber are being chosen by Gaeth Southgate. Simply put, it begs for a fallout.
White has been an important defender for Arsenal this year, but he was noticeably omitted from Southgate's England team last week.
Reece James, who has only recently returned from injury, Kyle Walker, and Kieran Trippier are currently ahead of the defender, according to Southgate, who used this reasoning to explain his decision not to choose him for the team.
White scored his first goal for the club in their thrilling 3-2 victory over Bournemouth earlier this month. White has played 36 times for Arsenal this season.
After Bukayo Saka scored twice in a 4-1 home victory over Crystal Palace on Sunday, Arsenal will enter the international break eight points in front of Crystal Palace in the race for the Premier League championship.
Chasers Manchester City were otherwise occupied with the FA Cup, which allowed Arsenal to capitalize with goals from Granit Xhaka and Gabriel Martinelli.
Sporting Lisbon eliminated the Arsenal from the Europa League on Thursday.
Yet, following their convincing derby victory, Mikel Arteta's team is still on track to win the Premier League for the first time since 2004.
