Declan Rice has brushed off threats to his life after switching international allegiances from Ireland to England.
The Londoner decided to play for his country of birth after winning three friendly caps for the Republic.
His decision provoked severe backlash, including death threats, but Rice insists he can handle the criticism.
"I've had a few bad bits," Rice told ITV. "I've had people saying they're going to come to my house, people online. There's a few bits that I could go into.
"Threats to my family, threats to me. You'll click on their profile and they will just be like a fake profile, so you don't know if it's true or not.
"But you know what, thinking about it now, I was never actually scared about it. There are always fans that are going to be giving you abuse and whatnot about it. You just have to look at it and laugh, think, 'Yeah, alright, as if you're going to come and do that', that kind of thing."
