Blatter unhappy with England stance

FIFA president Sepp Blatter took aim at the England team as he revealed his disdain for players who threaten to boycott international fixtures.

Speaking at FIFA’s extraordinary congress being staged in Doha on Sunday, Blatter, referring to what the world governing body described as ‘a recent event in England’, said: “Players have no right to threaten their association with boycotting a game simply because they are unhappy with a certain decision.”
