ALLARDYCE has his say on Rooney

The new England boss has taken a cue from Mourinho on which position is
suitable for the England captain. He thinks it is not worth it to play the 30-year old in the middle if he plaus as a striker at United.
“I think Wayne Rooney still has a massive place to play in the England side,” he said.
“If Jose says he is not going to play him in centre midfield and he is playing up front and scoring goals for Manchester United then it would be pointless me bringing him into England and playing him in centre midfield."

“I don’t know until that [I see club form] with anybody, let alone Wayne Rooney. I hope there are standout players all over the place when the Premier League starts."
“I hope it’s a hugely difficult task for me to pick my first squad because everybody is on really good form and playing exceptionally well."
Mourinho reiterated laat week on helping the English team in anyway he can.
“We’ve got to try and help each other if we possibly can."
“It won’t always be the case, the demands on Premier League managers and demand on me as England manager is bound to cause some conflict down the line because the pressures are far greater than ever before."
“So they are bound to want to protect their players and that is what I have to try and overcome with a little bit of give and take, hopefully.”
