England boss Roy Hodgson only focused on football

England boss Roy Hodgson reveals that he is only concentrating on matters on the pitch despite the revelations surrounding the FIFA corruption scandal.

England boss Roy Hodgson has admitted that he is only focused on matters on the field in light of the FIFA corruption scandal.

Several officials from world football's governing body have been accused of a number of offences, including bribery, money laundering and racketeering, after they were arrested in Zurich on May 27.

As a result of the investigations, FIFA president Sepp Blatter resigned from his position, but the organisation has continued to be rocked by further revelations.

However, Hodgson has insisted that he is only going to concentrate on England's efforts on the pitch, rather than events away from the field.

Hodgson said: "I am going to say I'm not going to get involved in that question, it is one for the FA and you can't accuse Greg [Dyke] or Martin [Glenn - FA chief executive] of not stepping forward on that subject.

"I will concentrate on the football, concentrate on the job I am paid to do which is to coach and manage a group of football players. I will leave any comments to the people at the FA who are more entitled to make comments at this moment in time."

England take on the Republic of Ireland in a friendly in Dublin later today.
