Alongside Gary Neville, Roy Keane and Jill Scott, Rooney opens the show revealing that he wants to remain in football management despite an approach to enter the boxing ring.
The all-time Manchester United top goal scorer talks about his managerial career so far, most recently at Birmingham City, and what he’s learnt from his spells in the dugout across England and America.
With five Premier League titles, a Champions League, FA Cup, Club World Cup and countless individual awards to his name, Rooney enjoyed a glorious career at Old Trafford where he established himself as one of the all-time great footballers.

What's your favourite Rooney goal of all time? 🤔
The overhead against City! The importance of that goal, the winner, last minute, and it was an overhead! A hattrick of recipes to make it THE best Rooney goal ever!
Overhead kick vs City of course, closely followed by the volley vs Newcastle
All 253 odd🎉🎉
The Newcastle goal, that volley was perfect.
Agree with the over head against City
This episode shows how caring Keano actually is. Every time Rooney's reply is a bit on the negative, (ie loss of confidence, downplaying himself) Keano would always reply with words of support. Keane's a legend.
Cos he knows a player when he sees one. Rooney was a mentality monster!
He’s the captain; that’s his job.
Always a captain. True Red.
Yep - clearly loves him
Its because he respects Rooney as a player and tough character. Probably sees something of himself in him
Love how Roy always puts a positive spin on the guests low points! Always builds people up
He's Irish! If you can't laugh at your flaws, just call us. We'll laugh at them for you😂
@@thatsthejobbb8587brilliant 😂😂😂😂😂
Its just natural leadership qualities
@@thatsthejobbb8587😂😂
Oh ya roy is all about the positives
That Rooney assist at DC united where he sprinted back,won the ball,sprinted forward and leant into a perfect cross for a late winner said I all I ever needed to know about Wazza,it was his career in a nutshell.
that was epic
Was pretty amazing
It's beautiful how Roy after all these years still got that captain's mentality of supporting and motivating people he played with. This is what the current squad is missing, a true leader.
I was just about to say that. I can see why players still see Keane as their leader and captain.
I was thinking the same thing when he said “you’re up and running now Wayne”. He might be the hard man but he has so much empathy.
Yep 100%
I can tell Rooney is an introverted person by nature but on the pitch he was very extroverted and aggressive. He was a massive talent and if you didn't see him in his peak you missed out.
A perfect example of actions speak louder than words.
Unfortunately for his managerial career, manager's have to use words.
Damn Rooney is shy. On another note can't see any of the Fergie boys making it in managing. "You go I stay" doesn't cut it these days
That’s why he’s never going to be a great manager. His communication skills isn’t great and the players don’t buy in to his ideas
Shy Rooney
Keano not having valentines day is the most keano thing ever..😂
"Love? What's all that nonsense about?"
If smiling is in his top 3 overrated stuff then valentines not got a hope
@@MH-vp7lf In my day it was a school kid thing. The wife agrees.😂
In my day it was a school kid thing. The wife agrees.😂

"it's not old school it's good school" now that's a quote 🔥
That really is an excellent quote 👏👏👏
Hardly original
@@roywilson4514who said it was?
Yep and klopp and pep sign players still like this. Always great attitudes
@@roywilson4514There's nothing new under the sun, but some people are blinded by it, and don't see what it illuminates.
LFC fan here, remember watching Wayne Rooney in the pre match at Anfield for United. He was pinging half volleys to two coaches from the half way line to the corner flag, it was like watching a FIFA advert, he never missed, chest, half volley, ping, chest, half volley ping, he is the greatest footballer England has produced.
Agreed but yet when you see people's all time XI he never seems to be picked. Hands down one of the best natural footballers that has ever been produced and he doesn't get the recognition he deserves.
Bobby Charlton, then Rooney for me.
Not a red u lad stevie G englands greatest ever footballer played wid players like jimmy traore n lucas leiva
He was pony for England tbf
@@chchedda no he wasnt
I love Keane giving Gary his jacket 😂❤ a true captain TO THIS DAY.
He took it off Souey ...toughest guy in the neighbourhood...
Anyone know the jacket?
@@colloquialsoliloquy6391 The jacket!!!
@@danielpunt7 dont try dressing like gary and keano mate, do you😂
@@colloquialsoliloquy6391deep cut sopranos reference?!!!!
Loved the smirk on Keanos face when Romney said he had a few problems with the manager
Mitt Romney
@@buzzmccallister9464😂
I caught those sly digs haha
Rooney and big Mitt are really the same guy when you think about it
Yeah...I've never seen them in the same room at the same time.
The most underappreciated Rooney feature was his playmaking skills. That assist for Van Persie’s volley is criminally underrated. What a player he was. I loved watching him play. Form, no form, goals and assists or drought - he was always giving 100% on the pitch. If he was playing as the nine all the time, he would have scored more than Shearer. Sometimes I feel sorry for him. He thoroughly deserved to have that spot.
“Remember goin in and You’ve got Roy Keane, Ryan Giggs, Scholes.. Phil Neville” 39:37 😂
Poor Phil catching strays
@@Pratheek-hh5ei It's not about Phil. The joke is that he doesn't mention Gary :)
Let’s be honest we’re all here for Roy Keane
That's his job!
Rooney on this one
We all love Keano
Normally, I'd agree but Wazza is here 🥺🥺
great lads in this comments section
3 former Man Utd captains on one table, true class!
Wow I didn't realize that!
And a Liverpool captain
3 benders
💯❤️🤍🖤
Can’t watch this - the guy can’t talk
"You're up and running Wayne" I can't stress how important that was to Wayne coming from Roy.
I thought the exact same.
He comes across like he’s still his captain and mentor in this episode. Less funny banter than when he’s with Lampard etc you can tell he genuinely cares about him.
It was so genuine. I am Irish so I am biased. Roy is getting even more likable day by day. Also his Valentine's day comment, so Irish ♥
When does he say this?
@jamieheslop2750 You can't stress how important that was to Wayne coming from Roy??? Why's that? Do you know Wayne?? We don't even see Rooney's face when he says it. Bollocks lad.
We need Cantona on the show!
Not after seeing his "singing" on TV the other week, we don't.
Razor ruddock
The self-appointed commissioner for football has his own show.
Oh my god yes!! 👌🏼
“When the seagulls follow the trawler…”
Never forget his United debut on tv when the commentator says after his first goal “Wayne Rooney scores for Manchester United, and it won’t be the last time you’ll hear that”. How right he was.
Brilliant sir
Well he only needed Rooney to score 1 more goal for him to be right,so insightful
Rooney at reds was world class
Esp that debut at that age 🔥
He'd just been bought for £30m which was the equivalent of £100m back then 😂 it was hardly unexpected
Even mystic Meg could’ve predicted that!
Keano is so protective of his players .. what a captain
But thats his Job ...
Okay mate 😂
"you're up and running Wayne" just a class act
Uncle Roy
two favorite Rooney moments were assists ... one not even for United. First, the overhead lob assist to Persie's volley. Just the most precise moment of football I've seen. Perfection from both. Then second, playing in the US. Rooney chases down a ball and player at the half way line in the last minute of the game, just busting a lung. Wins the ball, lobs the pass in from the halfway line. Headed in. Goal. Wins the game. Camera pans back to Rooney coughing up a lung back at halfway. The man just never quit. Huge fan.
These 'episodes' are just getting better and better..............the chemistry between the hosts is amazing. And Roy is just pure class
Thanks. Ur welcome👊🏿
The fact that England, one of the best teams in the world, heavily relied on an 18-year-old kid in EURO 2004 speaks volumes to just how good Rooney was at that age. He didn't have the longevity of a Giggs or Ronaldo but still had a glittering career. What a player!
He still played for over 15 seasons
If Alex ferguson had stayed at utd Rooney would of retired there
@@Jamesadams210yeah but not at the level he was at when he was 18-24
One of the best teams in the world. That’s a stretch 🤣
Lol what? England has never been one of the best teams in the world and teenagers playing wasnt a big deal at all. Micheal owen??
What alternate reality are you in?
This show is the best football show currently being produced, and that includes terrestrial television. Gary Neville, as the visionary and owner, needs to be recognised for this. Well done Gaz.
🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@steem8355you laugh but it’s spot on
👌🏼
But what about extraterrestrial television?
Terrestrial television. Get a load of this guy
This is the most I have ever heard Rooney speak...and it's goid that he's able to express himself clearly without pressure. Say what you like about his playing career and his personal life, but he just strikes me as someone whose dedication to football is unmatched.
I hope he gets back into coaching very soon and gets a chance to properly hone his craft at a good level.
I've said it before and I'll say it again. Yes, he had some flaws, but he was as close as perfect players come. Underrated in England, celebrated in the rest of the world. Legend.
Underrated in England? Are you daft
@@thomers2451he is underrated. Most people won’t even put Rooney is their best premier league time of all time. Henry, Kane, Shearer always seem to be picked ahead of him.
@@squidguard1 doesn’t make him underrated because he wasn’t better than shearer or Henry. Nobody would choose Kane over Rooney
I’m agree underrated - honestly prime Rooney could compete with top echelon because he had something so few had, football like mike Tyson aggression
He really wasn't/isn't underrated in England. He was recognised as being a really exciting talent from a very young age and often played in higher age group teams. He was seen as being one of, if not the most important player for the success of every team he played for including England for a long time. How is that underrated?
Another top guest, but getting Cantona on would be different level.
He’s to busy singing lol
Ooh ah cantona I said ooh ah cantona !
Will anyone of us understand anything he says?
He's busy singing
He's bonkers
Wazza is an introvert tossed into the limelight. Takes a bit to open up but really fascinating to listen to.
The best part of all of this is the respect that Roy Keane has for Rooney but how he still takes on that mentor role to him. Love that.
It's crazy how soft spoken and humble he seems off the pitch. On the pitch he was an absolute animal ❤
He's very honest with a great and true love of the game.
When will people realise he was the best premier league player ever?
I'm a massive Henry fan, but Rooney is easily the better player of the 2, even though you could say Henry was the better striker.
Both magnificent. But the assist for DC United amd the assist for RVP in the Premier league... Henry would find these moments impossible.
Rooney's football brain and work ethic was special!
I’m a massive Rooney fan. My favourite United player together with Scholesy. But I do think Henry was the best striker in the Premier League ever. With that said, Wayne was regularly thrown all over the pitch. He was so good he was used almost everywhere because he was always value and quality. A great player for the club, but I do think that hindered his career a bit. He could’ve EASILY beaten Shearer’s record playing as a nine more. I remember an entire season when he played primarily on the right. And then people were complaining he wasn’t scoring as many 😂
Tevez and Rooney were unreal together. Physical aggressive monsters.
Be careful, someone will get offended by your toxic masculinity
@@summan41manwouldn’t surprise me mate
I remember Rooney saying before that he felt Tevez was his best partner cos if one dropped deep, the other was pressing, constantly, throughout the whole game. They would have been fucking amazing in today's pressing style formations.
@@summan41manseems like you got offended by the offended
@@Kingofthekop1 It seems like you're presuming I'm easily offended.
Wazza sits there the first third of a video like a family member that just got out of rehab at Thanksgiving 😂
Looks like he's fresh off the gear and about to start on his climbing and motivational videos
I tink...I tink errm
@@jammybizzle666 hahaha mate that has tickled me
😂😂😂😂😂
@@jammybizzle666 😂🤣😂🤣🤣😂
One of the best raw strikers the premier league has ever seen . His ability hunger and talent was unreal .
This has to be the best episode. An hour flew by. Rooney is such a chill and laid back figure now. Great to see him in this mentality. Forever a United legend.
what a footballer rooney was 👏 class from overlap again 🔥
LOL at your terrible engagement.
💯
Tell them to get Mark Goldbridge on.
Also comments on sidemen which makes me thinks it's just a kid on work experience in charge of the social side of youtube.
@@T0rsentit’ll be ai
If Roy Keane doesn’t become a successful manager, I’ll never flush my toilet again. I thought he was just ruthless and cold, but man has compassion, relatability and understanding without sugarcoating. Someone give the man a long contract and just stand back !
I think that says just as much about the mentality of the modern day player as it does about Roy's ability as a manager.
Sure, Keane would be firm but fair but if he's basically dealing with a bunch of spoiled adolescents (as just 1 of the challenges of the job), it's always going to be a tough job (probably why Neville and Carra want to give management a miss now).
I don't think he liked the pressure. The fakeness manager's have to talk in press conferences etc. Klopp has spoken his fair share of rubbish, and I'm currently sick of ETH's voice tbh.
Keane would be good in some capacity, but he's hard to manage because he's intimidating and non compromising.
Leeds fan. Brilliant episode. Saw a different side of Wayne Rooney and I wish him all the best in his managerial career. I feel he has a lot to offer.
18:50 after that bit of gloomy silence the way Roy took it from there and some cheerful stuff was really nice 🖤
This is better than anything on Netflix!!
Breaking Bad, Ozark, etc?
This is okay but let's not get carried away.
@@summan41man haha Ozark come on lad, breaking bad fair enough
Better than Suits? 💀
Still Game >
Man said Ozarks 😂
"obviously I had a couple of moments with the manager"
Roy Keane: 😈
Lol
Most underrated player to play in the premier league doesn’t get the respect he deserves 💯
There is one thing I have realized many of us Manchester United fans love and respect Roy Keane so much.we want always to hear his opinion and respectfully he is a true Manchester United legends
‘You’re up and running Wayne’ 😊 Roy Keane is a bit of a legend
Rooney is my favorite player growing up as a kid, I have an England and United signed jersey and so much more memorabilia. As someone born in Seattle, I would wake up on the weekends anywhere from 3Am - 7Am just to watch United and Rooney. Cheers to you man, glad I got to see you guys come too Seattle and play in 2012. Thank you for the great memories, Rooney.
Never in a million years being a Derby fan would I have ever believed we would’ve had Wayne Rooney playing scoring goals for us, an absolute insane quality of player
Roy Keane is such a class act. No wonder he was a leader for the some of the best players in the world. Legend!
The last United player that I truly loved. No matter the position he played, no matter his form, he always gave it everything. I miss him.
@27:30 Wayne's humility and understanding is what made him such a great 'CLUB' Legend - he never moaned, he always gave everything and I genuinely think he's a rare breed of player that would put ego aside despite his talent and see the bigger picture. I have even more respect for him after this great interview!
Never moaned 😂
Carragher asked him how HE felt about being put out wide and he admitted that Ronaldo would win them the game. True team player(making it about the team and not himself)
People judge Rooney but never have lived the life he has. The Birmingham job was never a good fit, not his fault. He was arguably top 3 most talented player we’ve ever seen for England.
More like never moaned when he was still a decent player but now that he’s retired early and has a failed managerial career, he has become extremely bitter especially towards CR7. He was a great player but he was always second fiddle to RVN, CR, RVP and then Zlatan. The story of him being better but having to sacrifice his game is pure bs. If he was the best, SAF/Jose would make him the main man.
@@rd2fly26 incorrect. none of them players could do what Rooney did, that is why he he was sacrificed.
Rooney was s beast of a player. Humble aswel.
He fed Ronaldo.
Lop u ain't got a clue . About " he fed ronaldo"
@@Giri-bp6zjAye, cause Ronaldo played on his own, didn’t he? 😂 You’re a laugh mate, saying the guy has no clue, I think you’re the one without a clue.
Goes both ways mate. Ronaldo won 3 UCL without Rooney.
Far from a united fan and rooney used to give villa nightmares but what a player rooney was. Really good interview to be fair
Wayne Rooney. One of the Englands greatest ever footballers. Special raw talent. Not many young players could come into the mans game from a young age and have the impact he did, superb player.
balls ,,, wow very inspiring
"The one that gave the club his hand so it ate his arms" only a great man a true legend would do this , respect 👏❤
Changed my perspective of Rooney after watching this. He gives his best in everything he does and wants to be the best. No guarantees in life that your best is good enough, and some may say his best is not, but he still has the will and desire which i think is brilliant.
I never realised how much Roy respects Wayne, so encouraging and positive every time he talks to him, haven't seen that side of Roy before and it says a lot about the character of Wayne if someone like Roy can have that much genuinely respect about him.
Lovely to see, great episode.
“They offered me little more money” 😂 big up Roooonneeeyy
Dear Rooney, you are a United Legend. We love you. Thank you for the wonderful years. True red ❤
Miss this guy every day ffs, won't see a player like him again
@@taiyabmahmood8274 hopefully his oldest son will be nearly as good 👍🏼
How quickly we all forget how amazing Rooney was when he burst onto the scene - every fan would have loved him in their team - great interview!
Best channel on youtube right now! Gotta love Rooney, I wish him all the best on his next journey as a manager!
that utd team with prime Rooney Ronaldo Tevez Rio Vidic Evra,Giggs and scholes unreal experience along with the workhorses park carrick and fletcher with van der sar in goal,what a team,it was fergies best i think, second in europe to only barca what a time to be alive lol
Rooney calling Neville ‘Teabag’ from Prison Break is literally incredible!! XD XD XD
The story about Van Gaal and the 3 course meal had me in stitches. Brilliant content this man. Love this channel 😂😂
Please time stamp
Just want to say that I've been watching this stream for several months, really enjoy it and that was brilliant. Never knew anything about Rooney (as a person) and that was great. Well done to you all. Top content.
As always a tremendous episode. As a football fan it’s brilliant listening to legends of the game discussing and sharing their experiences and careers to us fans of the game. Thanks to everyone involved. 👏 👍
Glad you enjoyed it! 🤝
skinhead rooney was a different beast. loved watching that united era in my teens.
Probably nits pal
😂 loved the camera panning to Roy when Rooney mentioned problems with the manager
Not English myself, but agree with Gary re Euro 2004. I also 100% believe that if he didn’t get injured against Portugal in that quarter final game, England would’ve won that tournament. Was completely unplayable that tournament. Sensational! Also remember him bossing it against Croatia.
The same themes seem to come up every week, people and mgmt. Although I've never watched a football game and I've no clue of players and managers you'd be discussing, I love this show. I wait for it to drop every week. I have a huge interest in these topics business, mgmt, structures, team players, negotiations.. You don't need to be interested in football to find this a great show. It's laid back, good humour and honest storytelling, no ego!
As a United fan, Wayne has always been such an enigma... We should all absolutely adore and revere him as one of our greatest ever, and one of the best raw talents England has ever produced... And yet, he's always been rejected by a lot of fans, not taken seriously and seen as a bit of a 'figure of fun'.
Being scouse didn't help, but I think he was the victim of his own talent. He 'could' play anywhere and was happy to play anywhere because he just loved the game... But that worked against him, and Fergie started playing him wide or too deep like he's just a multipurpose squad player.
It's all just a bit of a shame really. Respect to Wayne, one of the best to do it. Thanks for the goals!
Not sure what fans have rejected him, I know of none. Stop hanging out with plastics 🤪
This should have a part 2 it’s been a great watch also love the respect Roy has still for Wayne etc
Brilliant interview! Thanks for all the goals Wazza!❤
Absolutely here for Roy Keane and the way he is building up Wayne Rooney 👏
The Rugby & XFactor story told by Rooney... Finally!! Luv it!!! 😂😂😂
I don't even bother watching games anymore, but I look forward to this show every week.
Yep football is shite nowadays, these lot are from my era talking about it so that’s why I watch this but I can’t be arsed with football nowadays.
Yep I find it difficult to watch a match. Too much faffing about. Best days are behind us unfortunately.
I cannot remember the last time I watched a full 90mins, we have so many versions to watch; 3mins, 9mins, 25mins 45mins and 90 which I normally fast-forward through when they prep for corners and free kicks etc or we are 1-0 down and I am bricking it!
No flair in todays game
Another United fan here, this channel is stopping me going under depression from united playing in weekend.
Absolutely ....loved.....this.....pod.
WAZZA the great. I am blessed just to have been able to watch my United, when he was in the team......what an era....what a player. BEST CF , period.
This was excellent. CZcams has become a wonderful thing to be able to give us all this.
Great opportunity to Hear Wayne’s mind set and Career.. As an Evertonian I wish him all the best for his Future and Life in General 👍🤝
I love Roy. Always the captain too with how he talks to his former teammates
This was absolutely fantastic and inspirational. Thank you for allowing us this insight into the footballer's world
Perfect episodes for young and the so called ‘senior’ players at utd. One of our greatest ever players was willing to make sacrifices for the team. Did his job as he was told.
Just started the video and I saw Roy Keane smile for a photo. My life will never be the same.
Wayne always worked harder than anyone else. I went to so many games in the last years of his career at United, and as bad as it could be, Wayne always worked harder than anyone else. Talent and work ethic together, and at times, he ws a literal genius on the football pitch.
What a podcast, Rooney was always my football hero growing up.
This is just pure gold
Brilliant. I would love to see you have Van Persie on sometime to get his views on his time with Arsenal, then Fergie and his departure, then Van Gaal and stories that he might have as well
Brilliant as always , so enjoyable . Please keep 'em coming 🙂
Absolutely love that Wayne gives it back to Roy! What a player! Best I've seen play for United.
That was quality!!!
Absolutely brilliant "chat" loved it!
"It's not old school, it's good school" -- Damn right Keano!
Love Rooney. As a young lad watching him play for United it felt like I was experiencing my dream through him at times. Such a raw talent, one of a kind. Incomparable to any player. Best podcast to date for me this one.
So so lucky having gotten to see wazza play live during his prime. Mentality warrior, true great of the game and of the club. Swiss army knife of a player. He played out wide, CM, CAM, fkng even LB once or twice, without ever complaining. Champion.
The best show on CZcams week in week out 👏🏽
What an impact he made when he burst on to the football scene, phenomenal player
Absolutely outstanding again!!! The pinnacle of podcasts . No one else comes close.
My all time favourite player. Loved the fire within him and what he did with a football was just pure class. We’ll never see another player like him, and that’s exactly how it should be.
Saw Wayne in a different light after this interview! I really hope he gets the success he's looking for in Management. This was a great hour!
Rooney on his own was a world class player, one of the best during his peak. But he is mostly judged and valued by his goals and assists. Rooney is underrated for his contribution to not just on the pitch, also to the culture of the club, the winning mentality of the team and the support of fans worldwide.
Fascinating and brilliant! Loved listening to Wayne. What a player, what a great fella!
An absolute fantastic striker and player for United and is the definition of Legend.
He goes by the name of Wayne Rooney
As a fan of England and Manchester United, Rooney is the most hardworking and selfless player ever, willingly to do anything the manager asked for. If he didn’t have to make way for the other forwards in United back in the days, he could easily score 300-400 goals…
Got to love the way Roy was sympathetic to the plight faced by Moyes at Utd.
Its disgraceful, especially for the senior players that have been idolized by the very fans which they betrayed by their actions.
Ferdinand was holding player meetings behind Moyes back.
I was hoping this would happen . This show is superb . Thank you ❤
Keano being supportive and stepping up is beautiful.
