SOUNDBITE: Roy Hodgson, England manager:

"When it comes to individuals you have to understand, as far as we're concerned, our main focus is preparing matches against Italy, Uruguay and Costa Rica. And these friendly matches, we've worked very, very hard in our own preparation to make certain that our own game is satisfactory to us and we are happy with what we are doing. And as a result, I must admit, that we would not be anywhere near as well prepared in terms of letting the players know everything there is to know about Ecuador as I hope we know as I hope we will be when it comes to the Italian match."
