Rooney's wife Coleen McLoughlin




Despite the lurid headlines in two Sunday newspapers, Rooney is set to travel to Switzerland today for England's Euro qualifier.



Clifford said: "The only thing Wayne Rooney has to worry about is his wife, whether she like all the others, is prepared to accept her husband's alleged infidelities. Nobody in football gives a monkey's as long as he's winning on the pitch. Man United fans love him. He could be a mass murderer as long as he's scoring goals.

Jennifer Thompson

A press conference ahead of England's Euro 2012 qualifier against Switzerland was dominated with questions about Rooney.

The News of the World said Rooney paid more than a thousand pounds each time to have sex with a prostituteu00a0u00a0 named Jennifer Thompson while his wife Coleen was pregnant.

Manchester City midfielder Milner said it was business as usual for the squad and Rooney took part in the full training session. "You have highs, you have lows, and it's down to us to make sure the only thing that matters is on the field, come together and make sure we get the result."

Asked about whether it was important for fans to like the players, Milner said: "It's important that we go out there and win. And control ourselves on the field and off the field as best we can."
