Agen Bola TerperCaya EURO 2016  ~   Wayne Rooney is facing a three-way fight for a place on England’s right wing.

The England skipper will continue his return from injury for Manchester United against Aston Villa on Saturday.

But Three Lions chief Roy Hodgson is determined not to pick his captain on reputation or past achievements and is believed to have settled on Harry Kane as his central striker, with Tottenham club-mate Dele Alli in the No 10 role for the opener against Russia in Marseille on June 11.

That leaves either Rooney, Jamie Vardy or Raheem Sterling to start on the right in a 4-2-3-1 formation, with Danny Welbeck on the left.

It means the Arsenal duo of Theo Walcott and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain will miss out entirely when Hodgson names his squad on May 12, barring late injuries to others. 

And the resurgent West Ham striker Andy Carroll will not make the 23-man party either.

Rooney, who broke Sir Bobby Charlton’s all-time England scoring record during a 100 per cent qualifying campaign, will make the plane to France – but his status as Three Lions captain will not guarantee him a starting role.

Rooney returned to first-team action after a two-month lay-off with a knee injury, when he appeared as a late substitute in United’s 2-1 FA Cup quarter-final replay victory over West Ham but he has been overtaken by Kane and Alli for his preferred central roles.

The young Spurs duo starred in England’s 3-2 comeback victory over world champions Germany in Berlin last month, convincing Hodgson they must start against Russia.

Nonton Bioskop Film Semi  ~   Rooney has the final month of the club season and three England friendlies against Turkey, Australia and Portugal to fully prove his form and fitness if he is to beat off the challenges of Leicester striker Vardy and Manchester City winger Sterling, who is currently injured.

But Hodgson, who knows the Euros will be his England swansong unless they prove a major success, will not select Rooney unless he is fully fit and firing.

Time appears to have run out for Walcott, who has been largely frozen out of Arsenal’s starting line-up by Arsene Wenger and is not going to make the cut with competition so fierce for positions in forward areas.

In defence, either Phil Jagielka or Kyle Walker will be omitted, with Hodgson set to select just seven defenders – knowing that Eric Dier can play either as a holding midfielder or central defender, while John Stones can operate as a centre-back or right-back.

Danny Rose will be on the plane at left-back and Ryan Bertrand likely to join him. Leighton Baines is said to be out of the picture.

The central midfield situation is less clear with Jack Wilshere finally back from a 10-month absence and Liverpool’s Jordan Henderson facing a desperate fitness battle after suffering a knee injury against in the first leg of the Europa League quarter-final at Borussia Dortmund last week.

Wilshere remains Hodgson’s preferred starter in the midfield anchor role – especially for the group games against Russia, Wales and Slovakia, in which England are likely to dominate possession.

Should they go on to face Europe’s elite sides, Wilshere is more likely to have Dier operating behind him in a more defensive-minded line-up.

But Fabian Delph remains a certainty to make Hodgson’s squad – and possibly his starting line-up – despite a frustrating first season at Manchester City, with the England manager valuing his energy.
