Former Arsenal midfielder and television pundit Paul Merson has weighed in on West Ham midfielder Declan Rice's current international situation.
The 19-year-old has earned himself three non-competitive caps for the Republic of Ireland but is also eligible to represent England, having been born in London, and is torn over which nation to pledge his allegiance to.
Merson believes Rice is good enough for the Three Lions' squad but can't seem to figure out why the youngster hasn't already picked the country of his birth, suggesting that the delay in committing to a country could affect his international career.
