Arsenal legend Tony Adams believes England can play well without Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney at the top of his game.
Much of the discussion in the days in between the two fixtures has focused on Wayne Rooney's place and position in the team but Adams says others can play the No 10 role.
"If Rooney plays, he should be in the No 10 role but there are lots of options. Personally, I would have liked to have seen Rickie Lambert up there having a go," Adams told the Daily Mail.
"People are over the top with Rooney - what's wrong with taking him off after 60 minutes and letting someone else have a go?
"I'd also back Jack Wilshere in that No 10 role. We do also have plenty of people to open up Uruguay with pace and quality - Welbeck, Sterling, Sturridge.
"Because of the result in the first game, we need to throw caution to the wind. All things considered, we should win."
