Wayne Rooney raises some laughs at his first press conference as he talks shopping, pasties and telling Coleen Plymouth is like Monaco.
After a couple of weeks working as a pundit for BBC Sport at Euro 2024, Wayne Rooney has now taken charge of his new side Plymouth Argyle.Liverpool to Plymouth is 293 miles - as Jurgen Klopp found out in pasty form before an FA Cup replay in January 2017And whoever makes it, be it the local butcher or one of the pasty giants, you must have a steak one."I actually like chicken and mushroom," Rooney said, leading to audible gasps from the press conference at Home Park.
"It's such a big move to move away from your family and a big decision to make, but it was the right decision for me in terms of my development and me trying to get back into management and work well, so it was the right decision for us and that was never going to stand in the way."Team-mates at Manchester United and England, pundits and podcasters Gary Neville and Wayne Rooney have a great relationship.
Rooney was widely hailed for keeping struggling Derby County in the Championship before points deductions saw them go down in his second season. Much like in Newcastle, Barcelona or Exeter, the city's football manager is one of the most recognisable faces.
