  Chris Sutton has questioned why Newcastle defender Dan Burn has not received a call-up to the England squad.<\/p>\n

  Burn scored in Newcastle’s incredible 4-1 thumping of Paris Saint-Germain on Wednesday night, in the Magpies’ first Champions League game at St James’ Park in two decades.<\/p>\n

  The 31-year-old has been in exceptional form for Newcastle going back to last season, where he helped them qualify for Europe’s most prestigious competition via a top-four finish.<\/p>\n

  Despite this, he still hasn’t received a call-up by England manager Gareth Southgate, as he again failed to make the Three Lions squad for their upcoming games with Australia and Italy.<\/p>\n

  When speaking about Newcastle’s victory over the Ligue 1 champions, Sutton reserved special praise for Burn, asking Mail Sport’s Ian Ladyman on It’s All Coming Up to name a better English left-back at present.<\/p>\n

  Chris Sutton has questioned why Dan Burn (left) has not received an England call-up from Gareth Southgate<\/p>\n

  <\/p>\n

  Sutton argued the case that there is ‘no better English left-back than Burn’ at present<\/p>\n

  He said: ‘Why does Dan Burn not get an England call up? I do not understand that.<\/p>\n

  ‘Tell me a better English left back than Dan Burn right now. Go on, name one. Hello? Come on?’<\/p>\n

  Ladyman in response named several players who could be seen as better than Burn.<\/p>\n

  He replied: ‘Well,\u00a0Ben Chilwell\u00a0is but he’s injured. Luke Shaw\u00a0is but he’s injured.\u00a0<\/p>\n

  ‘Kieran Trippier\u00a0is probably is a better left back than Dan Burn. He plays right-back for Newcastle but no I can. That is a better left-back.\u00a0<\/p>\n

  ‘Just because he plays it right-back. If he played it left-back, he’d be better. I like your sentiment.’<\/p>\n

  Sutton refuted Ladyman’s claims as he hit back: ‘He plays right-back. I don’t know whether you watch Newcastle. So you can’t name a better left-back than Dan Burn. You’re trying to.’\u00a0<\/p>\n

  Ladyman said Burn had a ‘great story’ after going from working at Asda to playing in the Champions League, but continued to deny Sutton’s claims that he is suitable for England’s left-back role.<\/p>\n

  He said: ‘The\u00a0Dan Burn’s story is a great story. You know, he was working in the supermarket at one point when he thought his football career was over.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

  ‘A brilliant story. He’s a lovely lad. He scored a goal last night. Magnificent. I don’t think he’s an England left-back, Chris. I don’t think he’s an England left-back.’<\/span><\/p>\n
