Eriksson:

"After May 25 we will know much better what is going to happen with Wayne Rooney.

"I hope we play Wayne Rooney and Michael Owen up front but Steven Gerrard is an option there.

"We have to wait until after May 25 to see how the scan is.

"We will be much more clever after the 25th.

"It would be a pity (if Rooney did not make it).

"Our chances would have been better with him fully fit but that's life.

"Our chances don't stand or fall with Wayne Rooney."
