Roy Hodgson has refused to confirm whether Rio Ferdinand has an England future following his decision to fly to Qatar.

Ferdinand's withdrawal has led to speculation Michael Carrick could be asked to drop into the back four in San Marino, but Hodgson all but ruled out that possibility. He said: "I'd be loath to start using someone like Michael Carrick, it would be enormously harsh on the four centre-halves we've got here."
