Stuart made his England debut in the opening Victory Shield match in October 2002 against Northern Ireland in Ballymena before helping the Under-16s clinch the Victory Shield in his second outing versus Scotland in November.

The Arsenal midfielder knows where the net also, scoring twice in his six games for the Three Lions last season, both goals coming in the Ballymena Tournament against the Czech Republic and Ireland. Added two more caps to his collection earlier this month in the International U17s Tournament matches against USA and Portugal.
