England Legend Chris Waddle Calls for Ben White’s International Ban After Spat with Thomas Tuchel
England football legend Chris Waddle has stirred controversy by calling for a ban on Arsenal defender Ben White from international football. The call comes in the wake of an incident involving White and former Chelsea manager Thomas Tuchel, which Waddle described as 'spitting the dummy out'.
The spat between White and Tuchel reportedly occurred during a heated exchange on the pitch, leading to a broader discussion about player conduct and respect towards managers. Waddle, known for his forthright opinions, believes that such behavior warrants a strong response from the football authorities to set an example for younger players.
Thomas Tuchel, now at Bayern Munich, has not publicly commented on the incident, but sources close to him suggest he was disappointed with White's reaction. Meanwhile, Arsenal and the England national team have yet to respond officially to Waddle's remarks, leaving fans and pundits to speculate on the potential impact on White's career.
This incident adds another layer to the ongoing debate about player-manager relationships and the pressures of professional football, highlighting the challenges faced by players in the spotlight.
