Stop all the clocks - Wayne Rooney's time as an automatic England pick is over, says former Three Lions enigma Matt Le Tissier.
If Father Time has not caught up with 30-year-old Rooney, who has missed the last month of Manchester United's troubled season with a knee injury, he is in danger of being eased out of England's best XI by the emerging talent at coach Roy Hodgson's disposal.
And Le Tissier, the mercurial talent who won only eight international caps despite a showreel of spectacular goals for Southampton, believes Hodgson should build a new front line around an axis of Harry Kane, Dele Alli and Ross Barkley at the Euro 2016 finals.
Le Tissier hopes England's friendly double-header against Germany and Holland to offer an exciting glimpse of the future.
