Download Rooney On Gerrard’s Comments and Feeling Lost Post-Birmingham

Wayne Rooney responds to Steven Gerrard’s “egotistical losers” comment about England’s Golden Generation and shares his own take on international duty. He reflects on England managers, including when Fabio Capello told a player to lose weight, and opens up about feeling lost after leaving Birmingham.

Kelly and Kae ask what led to Wayne retiring, was it gradual or sudden? He talks about losing his edge, life without competition, and the shift from player to coach at Derby County.

Plus, Club World Cup burnout, summer training habits, Kae’s comedy gig in Salford, and when Tyson Fury FaceTimed Wayne.
