Manchester United defender Rio Ferdinand insists there's no resentment over Jamie Carragher's England World Cup selection.

The Liverpool defender has ended his international exile to join England's squad.

"If he's there to do a job, then I'm happy," Ferdinand told the Daily Mail. "As long as we win I don't care. You can stick Father Christmas at the back alongside me at the last minute if it works. We want the right people at the right time for the trophy. End of story."
