Hodgson has no doubts over temperament of Man Utd ace Rooney

England coach Roy Hodgson has no doubts about the temperament of Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney.

Rooney returns to Montenegro for the first time since his dismissal two years ago.

"Wayne made a mistake, held his hand up and publicly admitted it was a mistake. He paid a high price for it because he missed two of the opening games in the European Championship," said the England manager.

"He won't need me to tell him or remind him - it will be fresh in his memory, but all I can repeat is that his disciplinary record with us is very good and he certainly hasn't let me down when he's played so I've got no reason to doubt him."
