World Cup Qualifier

           
Wayne made a mistake, held his hand up and publicly admitted it was a mistake. He paid a high price for it because he missed two of the opening games in the European Championship. He won’t need me to tell him or remind him – it will be fresh in his memory, but all I can repeat is that his disciplinary record with us is very good and he certainly hasn’t let me down when he’s played so I’ve got no reason to doubt him.English Premier League fans will also be familiar with Stefan Savic, who spent one season with Manchester City in 2011/12, before joining Jovetic in Florence. Strike duo Stevan Jovetic and Mirko Vucinic possess a potent mix of power and guile and represent the biggest threat to England's chances of victory.An 8-0 thrashing of minnows San Marino was nothing more than a morale-booster for Hodgson's team, and they will face a far sterner test on Tuesday.England head to Montenegro tomorrow night in the knowledge that a positive result will leave them in pole position to secure automatic qualification for the 2014 World Cup.Montenegro recorded a 1-0 win over Moldova in Chisinau on Friday, with Mirko Vucinic scoring the only goal of the game.Wayne Rooney will be desperate to banish memories of his last trip to Montenegro, which saw him sent off and earn a suspension that forced the forward to miss two matches during last summer's European Championships.The Juventus striker is the most high-profile player in the squad, along with Fiorentina's highly rated forward Stevan Jovetic.
