Former England international Luther Burrell believes Steve Borthwick should choose George Ford over Owen Farrell at fly-half against Samoa.
England have the weekend off before they face Samoa on October 7 in their final Rugby World Cup pool match. Victory will ensure they finish top of their group ahead of the knockout stages.Captain Farrell returned from suspension to take Ford's place in a 71-0 win against Chile, with another fly-half option - Marcus Smith - impressing at full-back.Whoever gets the nod against Samoa, Burrell says he would be wary of pairing Ford and Farrell in a fly-half-centre partnership.
'If you look at the run that Ford has been on in the past couple of seasons - Premiership final with Leicester, then the Premiership final with Sale as underdogs. Nobody would have predicted Sale to make that final. He had a huge role to play in that. 'Then we saw him come on against Chile at the weekend and his first touch, as he takes the ball to the line, a little double pump and he puts Henry Arundell down the wing in what I believe was his best try of the five he scored.
