Former England manager Roy Hodgson has asserted that star striker Wayne Rooney may reconsider his decision to retire from international football and make a comeback to the national team.
Rooney called it quits from England national team duty on Wednesday.
"As you know, I'm not a gambling man and never have been, but if I was such a person I wouldn't put any money on Wayne, in that situation, refusing to come out of retirement, if it was put to him in that way, as I know what this country does mean to him in terms of playing international football," Hodgson said.
"One hopes for his sake and the country's sake that situation won't arise, but I feel sure if it came to that and Gareth went to him and said: 'We're in a terrible mess here and we really need you, will you come out retirement?' then I would be surprised if Wayne didn't say 'Yes' — but I don't know. I'm second guessing."
