Hodgson: I haven't discussed Man Utd issues with Rooney

England coach Roy Hodgson has no idea of Wayne Rooney's plans at Manchester United.

The former Fulham and Liverpool manager admitted he had spoken to Rooney following training but that the player's focus had solely been on Wednesday night's game.

"It just so happened that we were both out of training early," he said.

"He's really anxious to play having missed the last couple of games for Manchester United, not least of all due to the birth of his new baby son.

"He's looking forward to the games and I hope he shows that on the night."
