There has always been conversation around the fact that Arsenal’s Ben White does not watch football and the Englishman has now explained his reasons for doing so. 

The watching public presumes that all footballers are obsessed with the sport and consume it in some form every day of their lives but that is not the case, with many players playing the game simply because they are good at it.
