England manager Roy Hodgson has
rubbished suggestions that Wayne Rooney
should not go to the European Championship this summer. The Manchester United striker has missed
his club's last six games with a knee injury but was criticized for poor form
over a number of weeks prior to his enforced absence.
Some critics have even suggested the England captain should sit out the
Euros in France, but Hodgson says the only way this would happen is if he
remains injured. He said “He is our
captain, he is our most experienced player, he's not missed one squad of the
last eight squads and he has never let us down. I'm not prepared to say
categorically about any players at this stage that they will go, but I
certainly will dismiss any discussions about Wayne Rooney and whether
or not he should go. My only fear is that he won't recover in time from his
injury, but it's a minor fear”
Rooney is expected to return to action for United, who are three points short
of the Premier League top four, in April.
