Intro:

Gary Cahill talks about Wayne Rooney ahead of the Euro 2016 Group E qualifier versus Slovenia where the England captain is expected to earn his 100th cap for his country.

Script:

SOUNDBITE: (English) Gary Cahill, England defender (on Wayne Rooney):

"You might think you are controlling him for the majority of the game, then all of a sudden he will do something out of the blue and create or score. And also, for me, he gets into those spaces where as a defender you kind of hesitant whether to go, or not go. And, again, just from being such a good player with such good awareness of being able to trouble defenders."

SOUNDBITE: (English) Gary Cahill, England defender (on Wayne Rooney):

"He has come into the role fantastically well, he has took the armband and he's been great for us. He scored a vital goal in the last game to get us the points there. And he needs no introduction, he is coming up to his 100th cap, which is an amazing achievement for someone still as relatively young as what he is - and he has got many, many years in front of him still."
