“Wayne Rooney is one of the best players in the world”
England skipper John Terry has no doubts about the focus of Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney and praised the striker ahead of tonights game against Montenegro.
The United striker again made the front pages for the wrong reasons, but this time it was Rooney’s dad — Wayne Snr — and uncle had been arrested over an alleged betting scam, says The Sun. But, in a private chat, the Manchester United star was quick to assure the England boss he was still fully focused on the crucial Euro 2012 qualifier against Montenegro tonight.
“Wayne Rooney is one of the best players in the world and he will certainly be OK,” said Terry.
“You learn through your career to deal with things — the manager has spoken to Wayne and he is totally fine.”
