    • 6 September 2013, Daniel Taylor, “Danny Welbeck leads England's rout of Moldova but hit by Ukraine ban”, in The Guardian[1]:
      The England manager can be encouraged by more evidence that Rickie Lambert has quickly acclimatised to international football, with another headed goal to add to the one he scored against Scotland, but Welbeck's ban comes at a time when Wayne Rooney and Andy Carroll are already out and Daniel Sturridge is likely to join them.
