Capello praises focused Rooney

Fabio Capello has praised the performance of England talisman Wayne Rooney after a difficult week for the Manchester United striker.

After three days of unwanted headlines, Rooney got some for the right reasons after ending a 12-month England goal drought to set the Three Lions on their way to an impressive 3-1 win over Switzerland in Basle.

Rooney's contribution followed on from his impressive effort in the demolition of Bulgaria at Wembley on Friday - though that came before his personal life became the subject of potentially damaging allegations.

Both displays justified the England manager's decision to let Rooney occupy a deep-lying position just in front of England's two central midfielders, a role Capello feels the 24-year-old is perfectly suited to.

"Wayne Rooney played very well," said Capello.

"(Mentally) he was okay and scoring the goal helped too.

"This position is good for him. It is easy for him to get into positions to shoot."

Wayne Rooney can also be backed at 1213.00 to be the Premier League's Leading Goalscorer come the end of the 2010/11 season.
