Wayne Rooney "happy to play anywhere" for England

Wayne Rooney insists that he is "happy to play anywhere" for England after he was moved out to the left wing against Ecuador.

Wayne Rooney has insisted that he is "happy" to play on any area of the pitch for England after he was moved to the left wing in Wednesday's World Cup warm-up match against Ecuador.

The Manchester United star was criticised for his performance in the Three Lions' 3-0 win over Peru at Wembley last week.

However, the 28-year-old tried to answer his critics by ending a four-game goal drought by scoring in yesterday's 2-2 draw with Ecuador in Miami.

"I enjoy playing for my country, whether it's left wing, right wing, midfield or up front," Rooney told reporters.

"I've said before I'm always proud to play for England and that won't change no matter where I am on the pitch. It's down to the manager to pick where he wants to play me and I'm happy to play anywhere."

England will open their World Cup campaign against Italy in Manaus on June 14.
