Harry Kane and Raheem Sterling destroyed on Twitter for below-par England
Theo Walcott beat the offside trap and finished confidently past the goalkeeper to put England in front just before the break and Raheem Sterling put the result beyond doubt from close range five minutes from time.
“It’s not often that I really contest people’s choice of man-of-the-match”.
When pushed to concede that racking up 10 qualifying wins would be a commendable feat, Hart added: “I don’t see it being that great an achievement unless we go on and do well in the tournament in the summer”.
“Being Wayne he always wants to represent his country”, the Arsenal player told a press conference. The Everton star, who has been in fine form for his club recently, said: “I’m over the moon with my performance”. I thought we were good value for our 2-0 win.
But it was a mixed night for manager Roy Hodgson with his team already through to the finals as Group E winners.
England’s record goalscorer Wayne Rooney is set to miss the Euro 2016 qualifier against Estonia on Friday through injury, per the Express.
“Gary Cahill has occasional back problems and we were a bit concerned with: A, the flight and B, the artificial pitch”.
If Rooney misses the match, Hodgson has plenty of replacements available.
“But that’s a coach’s job with a very talented young player with lots of ability, using that ability in the right moments”. This season he’s helped the team do well and, for us, training with him the last few days, you can see he’s a top class performer.
He said: “I was very pleased”.
For the most part, they could not puncture an organised and hard-working Estonian team, who stand 87th – below Iraq and Guatemala – in the Federation Internationale de Football Association rankings.
“But the most important thing – as I said to the players at half-time – is the victory, which is everything here”. Unfortunately, he received a knock playing against Arsenal fairly late on and we’ve been waiting for the ankle to sort of settle down.
“I don’t think I can ever be accused of having anything other than utmost faith in him”.
“I must emphasise it is actually a minor injury and he will be fully fit next time Manchester United play, Saturday week”.
