"Ben White became the fifth Brighton player to play for England after Tommy Cook, Peter Ward, Steve Foster and Lewis Dunk. England have won all seven matches when Brighton players have featured, the best 100%-win record when players from a club represent the England national team."

England manager Gareth Southgate speaking to ITV: "I thought we started very well. We used the ball well in the first hour or so. We were playing against a very good side. They have good players. They get in between the lines well.

"The first hour was good in terms of quality. After that we needed to make a lot of changes and preserve people. We got a bid disjointed and people had cramp. We were hanging on at the end. It was understandable given the changes.

"Ben White showed some lovely touches. You can see he's miles better than that clown Mings. He's a quality player."

My favourite Albion / England stat which I had been saving for ages that when Foster / Dunk / White have played, England have not conceded a goal...Ben played a significant part in that last night.

In fact England have only ever conceded one goal with a Brighton player in the side.
