CONFIDENT: Joleon Lescott Posted Monday, March 25, 2013 - 10:11 By Paddy von Behr Manchester United star Wayne Rooney has grown up since his thoughtless red card against Montenegro 2 yrs ago, according to England teammate Joleon Lescott. The striker found red in a 2012 qualifier a as England lost a two-goal lead a and missed the first two games of the match. Nevertheless, Lescott backed Rooney, and the others of the squad, to exhibit discipline when they face the exact same competitors in an important World Cup qualifier on Tuesday. "Wayne is older now. He's more experienced and mature," explained the Manchester City defense. "We each one is. I do not think there will be a problem. We want to be disciplined and professional. aWith the standard of people in this squad, I do not think it'll be described as a problem." Montenegro have became a tough opponent for England in recent years, keeping Roy Hodgsonas area to an attract both Euro 2012 qualifying conferences. Lescott is wary of the threat posed by Branko Brnovicas part, as he prepares to manage the likes of Mirko Vucinic and Stevan Jovetic. But he also believes England can take Fridayas 8-0 gain in San Marino and carry the confidence into Tuesdayas nightas sport in Podgorica. aWinning varieties confidence,a added Lescott. aNo disrespect to San Marino but we performed well against them and we can desire to do the same on Tuesday. "When we came away our aim was six points and that's still our primary focus. Ukraine whipping Poland on Friday evening was a great outcome for us. aIf we win on Tuesday that will give an excellent run to us into the second half the qualifying campaign."
