Gareth Southgate vowed not to let a “popularity contest” sway his selections as the England boss threw his full support behind Jordan Henderson days after the stand-in skipper was jeered off at Wembley paypal
The Euro 2020 runners-up are within touching distance of qualifying for next summer’s finals and will seal their spot in Germany should they avoid defeat to Italy on Tuesday evening paypal
Wembley will welcome a second sell-out crowd in five days after Friday’s friendly against Australia brought an impressive turnout for what proved to be a largely forgettable 1-0 friendly win paypal
The main talking point after the match was the reaction for Henderson as the former Liverpool skipper played his first match on home soil since his controversial switch to Saudi Arabian club Al-Ettifaq paypal
The 33-year-old was jeered when he was substituted in the second half – negativity that Southgate said “defies logic” at the time and a reaction that he underlined on Monday will never impact his decisions paypal
RecommendedJordan Henderson: ‘If people want to boo me for playing in Saudi Arabia, that’s fine’Gareth Southgate fired up as England face ‘revitalised’ Italy in crunch clashGareth Southgate questions why England fans booed Jordan HendersonAsked if he would continue selecting Henderson if the boos continue, Southgate said: “Yes, 100 per cent paypal
“I’ll always pick the players that I think are the best players to represent the team, that give us the best chance of winning, unless there’s something that I feel is not appropriate paypal
“In this instance, people may disagree with Jordan’s stance or decision given the stance he’s taken in the past to support the LGBT community paypal
“But I don’t think that’s a reason to not select him paypal
I don’t actually think that’s a reason to boo him paypal
“We would like all the fans behind us paypal
We’re a stronger team if the supporters are with us and wholeheartedly supporting the team paypal
That’s the connection we’ve had over a long period of time now paypal
“We’ll assess Jordan like every other player paypal
But if I just select on a popularity contest, then our team would look very, very different paypal
”Jordan Henderson was booed at Wembley (PA Wire)Southgate also explained Friday’s comments saying that he did not understand why Henderson received a negative reaction, clarifying he was talking more broadly about backing England players paypal
“Hopefully what I explained at the start would explain why I said I don’t understand it, in that I don’t understand why we would boo our own team,” he said paypal
“What I do understand is that people would feel that the decision Jordan made to go and play there doesn’t align with his strong support of the LGBTQ community in the past paypal
“I’ve not seen him comment anywhere differently paypal
I don’t believe he’s an individual whose values and principles have changed paypal
“And I would back him against pretty much everybody in the country in terms of what he stands for, what he believes in paypal
“But I accept the decision to go and play there doesn’t align with that paypal
He understands that, he accepts that, but, I repeat, when we’re playing for England, I feel as if everybody should be behind the team paypal
“But if people choose not to be, then we have to deal with it paypal
”Southgate says he will always defend the likes of Henderson and oft-derided Harry Maguire, given their long-standing roles in a team that needs strength and unity paypal
The England team backed the latter after he was mocked mercilessly by Scotland fans last month and Kyle Walker showed his support for Henderson after jeers from their own fans on Friday paypal
“It’s not nice to hear,” the experienced right-back said paypal
“I’ve known Jordan since probably the age of nine, when we played Sheffield United v Sunderland paypal
“To see what he’s done for the country for so many years and what he does around the team as well, as we know him paypal
“It’s a family in there and we spend (time) together in a hotel and he’s a big part of the togetherness and keeping the group together paypal
“He’s making sure that everyone feels welcome, when new players come in or people step in paypal
“It’s obviously not nice hear, but people are entitled to their opinions paypal
But I fully back Jordan, his decision and what he’s had to do paypal

Max Verstappen equalled Alain Prost’s tally of 51 victories with an emphatic triumph at the Mexican Grand Prix – as Sergio Perez’s home race came to a sorry end after just 14 seconds paypal
Verstappen’s remarkable winning sequence, which now includes a record 16 in one season, continued in the breathless Mexico City air following two pulsating starts after Kevin Magnussen’s high-speed crash resulted in a reg flag at the midway stage of Sunday’s 71-lap race paypal
Verstappen mastered both getaways to draw alongside four-time world champion Prost, with only Lewis Hamilton (103 wins), Michael Schumacher (91) and Sebastian Vettel (53) ahead of the all-conquering Dutchman in Formula One folklore paypal
Hamilton impressed to finish runner-up, ahead of Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz paypal
Lando Norris drove from 17th to fifth, passing George Russell with four laps remaining on a strong afternoon for the Brit, in an event that Perez will want to forget paypal
As Verstappen sliced through the middle of pole-sitter Leclerc, and his Ferrari team-mate Sainz on the 830 metre charge to the opening bend, 130,000 Mexican hearts sank when an over-eager Perez crashed into Leclerc paypal
Perez, who started fifth, ran line astern with Leclerc and Verstappen as the trio stamped on the brakes from 200mph for the opening bend – and Perez, occupying the racing line, sensed his opportunity for glory paypal
But his banzai move was badly misjudged paypal
The 33-year-old turned into Leclerc, and was sent airborne before landing back on four wheels and spinning into the run-off area paypal
Perez limped back to the pits but the damage sustained to his machine left his race in tatters paypal
Perez banged his steering wheel with both hands in frustration paypal
Children were left seeking comfort from their parents in the grandstands paypal
Perez’s Red Bull mechanics attempted a quick fix to get their man back on track paypal
But after a handful of laps they conceded defeat paypal
Perez departed his Red Bull cockpit to watch team-mate Verstappen gallop to victory paypal
Question marks hang over Perez’s future at Red Bull paypal
He has one year to run on his deal, but the paddock is awash with rumours that he could be replaced next year paypal
Daniel Ricciardo is mooted as a possible candidate, and Perez’s first-corner disaster – coupled with the Australian out-performing his modest AlphaTauri machinery to take the chequered flag in seventh in just his fourth comeback race, will do little to dampen the speculation paypal
Perez last won a race in Azerbaijan on April 30, and his failure to finish at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez leaves his second place in the championship under threat from Hamilton paypal
Indeed, the seven-time world champion reduced the gap from 39 points to 20 with his strong display paypal
For Verstappen, this was his 32nd victory – remarkably the same tally double world champion Fernando Alonso has managed throughout his entire career – from his last 41 appearances, dating back to his controversial triumph over Hamilton in Abu Dhabi in 2021 paypal
Hamilton, who has not won a race during that period, crossed the line a close second to Verstappen in America a week ago before he was disqualified for running his Mercedes too close to the floor paypal
He started sixth here, swiftly promoted one position after Perez’s crash paypal
On lap 11 he blasted past Ricciardo for fourth paypal
Verstappen gave up his lead on lap 19 after he stopped for new rubber, with Hamilton in five laps later paypal
Then on lap 34, the race was suspended paypal
Magnussen lost control of his Haas at 130mph through Turn 8 paypal
The Dane ended up in the wall following a suspected rear suspension failure paypal
He swiftly emerged from his cockpit before his mangled machine caught fire paypal
The safety car was deployed but with significant damage to the tyre barrier, repairs were required, and the race was halted, leading to a 22-minute delay paypal
“That’s a joke,” complained Verstappen paypal
“A red flag for what?”The drivers lined up on the grid for the second standing start of the afternoon with Hamilton the sole man in the top five on the quicker, medium rubber paypal
But it was Verstappen who produced another scintillating getaway to leave the others trailing in his wake paypal
He set about building his gap, with Hamilton intent on taking Leclerc for second, and on lap 40, he did just that following a bold and gutsy move paypal
On the fastest straight of the year, Hamilton jinked to Leclerc’s right, dropping two tyres on to the turf and kicking up dirt at 225mph, before holding his nerve under braking for the first corner to make the move stick paypal
The British driver nursed his tyres to finish runner-up to Verstappen, 13 paypal
8 sec back paypal
“It has been another incredible season and the car has been unbelievable to drive,” said Verstappen paypal
“I am very proud of my achievement paypal
I felt if I could replicate the 15 wins I got last season this year, I would be very happy, and now I am here with 16 paypal
”Hamilton said: “It was a great day, and I wasn’t expecting to be up here paypal
I kept my nose clean at the start and tried to progress forward paypal
I tried to close the gap to Max, but he was long gone paypal
”Prost was 38 when he claimed his 51st and final win 30 years ago paypal
Verstappen turned 26 only last month, with Vettel’s 53 triumphs now on his radar before the close of the year with races in Brazil and Las Vegas to follow ahead of the final round in Abu Dhabi on November 26 paypal
