Radja makes Insta-nt fool of himself

-

RADJA NAINGGOLAN was quick to respond to being left out of the Belgium World Cup squad. “Very reluctantl­y, my internatio­nal career comes to an end,” he said. What on earth is reluctant about it? How is going straight on to Instagram and saying you will never again play for your country in any way reluctant? You couldn’t do it quickly enough, Radja. Nainggolan (left) is 30. Joe Hart and Jack Wilshere were both criticised for voicing their displeasur­e at Gareth Southgate’s decision to omit them from his plans. But they did not throw their toys out of the pram and no retiring from internatio­nal football in a huff.
