Rooney 6/4 To Be Withdrawn By Capello

7 Sep 2010

Wayne Rooney is 6/4 with Bet365 to be substituted in England’s Euro 2012 in Switzerland tonight, as the tabloid focus on his private life continues.

Rooney was the subject of revelations in two Sunday newspapers this week that he had slept with a prostitute whilst his wife, Coleen, was pregnant with their first child and whilst Rooney will start in Basle tonight, Bet365 believe that question marks over Rooney’s state of mind could make him an attractive proposition at 6/4.

Already known for his temperament and in poor form in front of goal, with no goals in the last 12 games for England, Rooney is also at 9/4 to be booked and 40/1 to be sent off.

The Manchester United striker is 19/4 best price with Victor Chandler to score first, with Friday’s hat-trick hero, Jermain Defoe, available at 5/1 with BlueSQ, Paddy Power, William Hill and Bet365. Steven Gerrard is at 15/2 to score first whilst the highest rated Swiss player, Alexander Frei, is at 9/1 with VC.
