England manager Gareth Southgate has taken issue with Crystal Palace chairman Steve Parish's views on the international tug-of-war involving Cote d'Ivoire winger Wilfried Zaha.
Zaha was capped twice by England, in 2012 and 2013, but switched allegiances to Cote D'Ivoire, the country of his birth, late last year and has since made six appearances for it.
He scored a fine solo goal in the 2-0 friendly win over Russia last week, prompting Parish to tweet: "Never wavered in my belief of @wilfriedzaha, why is this goal not for @England?"
