World Cup 2014: Ashley Cole in England fight - Roy Hodgson

England manager Roy Hodgson says it will be difficult for Chelsea left-back Ashley Cole to secure a place in his starting XI at this summer's World Cup.
Cole, 33, has failed to command a regular spot for the Blues this season, while facing pressure from Everton's Leighton Baines for his England shirt.
I certainly wouldn't write Ashley Cole out of any plans because he wasn't playing in his club team

"For years people have been understudy to Ashley," said Hodgson. "Now it's Ashley's turn to sit back."
