Rooney spent today's England training session on the left wing. Looks like he'll be playing there v Ecuador tmrw. He'll be delighted ...

 

Also, James Milner to play at right-back against Ecuador tomorrow.

Rooney left wing is something I've wanted to see for a while, he's just utter gash playing at CAM in this England side. Milner right back is worth a look I guess.

It's a friendly and they need everyone to get some game time. Rooney's worth a look out wide and I assume Lambert will be through the middle. Milner at right back is another experiment that needs to be tried as Johnson is shite defensively, though I doubt Milner is any better we might as well confirm it

Ugh. This is not my mentality at all. I want us to have a solid 11-14 players that constitute our 'first team'. I want them to play together, as many times as possible. And in that group, I want everyone to play in their favoured position. I want team cohesiveness, something we've not seen for 12 years or more. I do not need to see James Milner do a mediocre job at right back. Nobody needs to see that.

I agree. You pick them based on their performances in their position that year - yet when they get into your team you move them to somewhere they haven't played all season.

Rooney playing with the stiffs, interesting.

 

Hope Ecuador have a less than full team out too otherwise it could get anguish-y.

 

EDIT: @Tim_Vickery  3m

Ecuador putting out the side that will probably play Switzerland in crucial first game

Roy Hodgson has been ridiculed after the England manager admitted he knew little about Ecuador, his side's opponents on Wednesday.

Asked what he knew about football in the South American country, Hodgson said: “That’s a bit like me asking what you think of Crewe’s chances of getting out of the second division.”
