England coach Roy Hodgson has criticized former Sunderland winger Adam Johnson.
Johnson whose 12 caps included two under Hodgson, began a six-year sentence this week after being convicted of sexual activity with a 15-year-old girl.
Hodgson said: "My views on the subject are no different to anybody else's, any reasonable human being. "I condemn what he did and unfortunately he has to pay the price for it.
"But I don't think it should be linked in particular to England, the fact he once played for England or that we once were actually quite a lot closer to him when he was a player under my leadership and a colleague of Gary's (Cahill)."
