"I’m sorry but sometimes I don't see what the fuss is about. He's not English anyway, let's be fair. We can argue that, under the current FIFA rules, by 2018, he might be eligible to play for England. But if a player isn't eligible to play for England until 2018, then what's the problem if he goes and plays for someone else. How can you be upset in 2014 if he goes and plays for one of the other countries that he's actually eligible for? He was born and brought up in Belgium. We can't be disappointed by that. It would be very different if he was available to play for us and we passed up the opportunity and he went to play for Belgium. The question would be relevant. But it's not relevant when he can't play until 2018."
