England’s captain, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Steven-Gerrard-c34196 feels that Wayne Rooney’s absence could have an impact on the side, but hopes for the team to be able to perform to the best of their abilities without the striker.

Rooney is quite possibly the most important striker in the team, but Gerrard is hoping for the other players at the club to step it up in his absence and try and get the best possible results for the team in this time period.
Gerrard is quoted to have said:  "Wayne [Rooney] is a world class player. Any team would suffer after the loss of such a player.”

"So yes, we will miss him. But we hope it will go well without him and we can do the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684. In any case, we expect to reach the quarter-finals."
The England captain then went on to talk about his upcoming opponents in the Euros, as he admitted that France had one of the better teams in the competition, while admitting it won’t be easy to beat them.
"They are fantastic players. For example, we know Nasri and Benzema very well. When we see such players selected for http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/France-c2899, we understand that the quality of the French team is high.
"I consider France to be one of the favourites for the Euros. We are all looking forward to playing this game."
England need to try and get their tactics and formations just right before they head into their game with France.
The team is going to be without Rooney and as a result, things won’t be as easy as they would have been hoping for them to be in the game.
Roy Hodgson is going to have to find a balance in his squad, while trying to figure out just who to play in the squad, in order to try and overcome the test that France might pose on the team.
Nonetheless, in the end, it is going to be down to what team wants to win the game more.
