What the managers are saying

Gareth Southgate (England): All of our group have huge respect for Wayne and they feel its fitting that his last game should be the number 10.When he puts that shirt on his wall somewhere at the end of his career, [we hope] its been a special night and the 10 is the number he has there.Gareth Southgate has defended Wayne Rooney’s inclusion in the squad3

“It is a very special night for him and I know there are many supporters who want to pay thanks.”David Sarachan (USA):I think a player like Wayne Rooney who had such a terrific international career, in the league but in terms of his national team, to have an opportunity to reward him for that as a federation, I kind of applaud that.I dont think it devalues the game. I would think different if Wayne had retired from football three years ago and they said, Hey, why dont you just jump in, but he is coming off the back of a very impactful season in the States.
