Why Venables made public apology to Southampton legend Le Tissier

Terry Venables has apologised to Southampton legend Matthew Le Tissier for not selecting him for England.

Venables made the gesture at a Le Tissier tribute night this week.

"I want to make an apology because Le Tissier was a fantastic player and now I'm older and wiser I've realised I should probably of picked him a lot more for England," he said.

"Le Tiss has been a real credit to the game, there's no doubt about that, he was a wonderful player, who mastered the ball, he was brilliant for the game and everyone in the game loves him.

"I'm not just probably sure, I'm definitely sure I should have picked him."
