Forget the Euros! Rooney and Cole land in Los Angeles to relax after England failure
Feeling Blue? The Chelsea defender is also in California for a break before the football season resumes

Talking to the Italian news agency ANSA, Capello said: ‘After seeing the latest game, I think Rooney only understands Scottish. That’s because he only plays well in Manchester, where Sir Alex Ferguson speaks Scottish.'

But since then Hodgson has come to Rooney's defence, saying Capello's comments were a 'cheap jibe' at the England forward.

Speaking to talkSPORT, he said: 'Capello is entitled to his opinions, I suppose. I don't know what relationship he would have had with Wayne but I always think it's a bit cheap to kid on a player who was so anxious to do well.
