Wayne Rooney's managerial career takes another hit as he leaves Plymouth Argyle after a nine-game winless streak. This follows a similar short-lived tenure at Birmingham City, leading to questions about his ability to succeed at the Championship level. His dream of managing Manchester United or Everton appears increasingly distant.
For England's 'Golden Generation', the pathway into elite-level management has often been a humbling experience - and Wayne Rooney has experienced it again. Rooney, who was capped 120 times by the Three Lions, has left Plymouth Argyle after a nine-game winless run with the club bottom of the Championship .
Both at Stamford Bridge - twice - and at Goodison Park, the magnitude of the task proved too much once the stakes were raised. Rooney's failure to build on Eustace's solid platform at Birmingham makes one question if it was the circumstance and unwanted scrutiny surrounding him replacing a popular manager that contributed to his quick demise. Eustace had lifted Blues away from relegation trouble during a 15-month spell.
