The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ukraine-c3032 over the summer by performing for the English national team and has come out and admitted that the England squad is made up of top players which are competing
for several places in the first team line up...
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Theo-Walcott-c34873 has come out and hinted that places in the English national team line up are up for grabs between the Three Lions squad for the European Championships over the summer and he also made a note that if England do well
in the first two matches of the tournament, then they can very well continue without incorporating Rooney into their formation.
Roy Hodgson has been testing his squad in the friendly matches that England have played thus far under him and up till now England have gained narrow victories over the likes of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Norway-c2974. Nonetheless, things will be more
difficult when the Three Lions take on http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/France-c2899 in their opening encounter in the 2012 EUROs.
Rooney will be absent for England’s opening two matches against France and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sweden-c3015 but after that he will be available for selection, a task that now falls upon Roy Hodgson to deal with and a task which will be difficult to undertake
if http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 do well in the opening two fixtures.
Theo Walcott stated, "Wayne is obviously a very important player to the team. But that's what we have to bounce back from. You need to react from that disappointment. He has a two-match ban but the players we have in that dressing
room play in the best league in the world as well.”
He added, "It's not a hard task for anyone who comes into Wayne's role. You never know, we might keep Wayne out of the team if we do well in the first two games. Only time will tell, we will see." England have not done well at
the European Championships historically as they have never made it to the final match of the competition. Roy Hodgson’s men even failed to qualify for the last European Championships in 2008.
