I think that's an important time in your life 00:18:50.960 --> 00:18:53.600 because that's when, certainly if you want to go into football, 00:18:53.680 --> 00:18:56.080 that's really when you have to make a decision. 00:18:56.160 --> 00:18:58.760 Lads are out drinking and you're under pressure. 00:18:58.840 --> 00:19:02.120 The lads are all saying, "Oh, come on, just stay out," and... 00:19:02.200 --> 00:19:05.800 But you don't, you go home and you focus on your training. 00:19:05.880 --> 00:19:08.320 And it is difficult.

He was a team player. 01:34:13.040 --> 01:34:16.040 That was the only time that I've ever thought he let himself down. 01:34:18.920 --> 01:34:22.440 [Rooney] They were offering me a contract of £200,000 a week. 01:34:22.520 --> 01:34:25.200 So it would've been quite easy for me to say five years, 01:34:25.280 --> 01:34:27.960 £200,000 a week, let me sign it now. 01:34:28.040 --> 01:34:30.880 Would've been quite easy for me to do that. 01:34:30.960 --> 01:34:33.640 But I wanted success on the pitch. 01:34:33.720 --> 01:34:34.960 That means more to me. 01:34:36.640 --> 01:34:39.160 Here is Wayne Rooney on the front page of, uh, 01:34:39.240 --> 01:34:42.920 the Manchester Evening News in the light blue of Manchester City 01:34:43.000 --> 01:34:47.600 and they are among the front runners now to sign United's talismanic striker. 01:34:47.680 --> 01:34:50.920 He's a good lad. He plays football well. 01:34:51.000 --> 01:34:54.520 He gives his all for the team. He wins games. He scores goals. 01:34:54.600 --> 01:34:58.320 And, yeah, he's a human being, he makes some mistakes like we all do. 01:34:58.400 --> 01:35:01.600 I don't care. But don't do that to your teammates. 01:35:01.680 --> 01:35:04.320 And I was surprised that he survived that. 01:35:04.400 --> 01:35:06.680 I really was. I thought that was it, he's done. 01:35:06.760 --> 01:35:10.000 I think it damaged him with the fans a little bit at the time. I do. 01:35:10.080 --> 01:35:12.040 Because obviously the idea was he was going to City. 01:35:12.120 --> 01:35:15.360 I think one of his problems was that he took on Fergie. 01:35:15.440 --> 01:35:20.360 You can't do it and I think that sort of turned fans against him. 01:35:20.440 --> 01:35:24.240 But all the things Wayne said about how they needed to do better with transfers 01:35:24.320 --> 01:35:26.120 and invest in the team were actually 01:35:26.200 --> 01:35:28.000 what United fans are still talking about now. 01:35:29.160 --> 01:35:31.800 [Rooney] Actually, if you look five years down the line 01:35:31.880 --> 01:35:34.240 from that meeting, Alex Ferguson knew where the club was going 01:35:34.320 --> 01:35:35.920 and he got out of there as quick as he could. 01:35:36.160 --> 01:35:38.600 And they're still picking up the pieces now. 01:35:38.680 --> 01:35:41.880 As I sit here now, I think that takes real guts that 01:35:41.960 --> 01:35:44.560 and courage to do what he did, 'cause none of us would've done it. 01:35:44.640 --> 01:35:46.520 Not in a million years. Gone into the manager and said, 01:35:46.600 --> 01:35:50.360 "Who you signing? You'd better sign some good players, else I'm off." 01:35:50.440 --> 01:35:52.480 We'd have been turfed out that door 01:35:52.560 --> 01:35:54.280 quicker than we'd actually finished our sentence 01:35:54.360 --> 01:35:55.680 because you just wouldn't do that. 01:35:56.160 --> 01:35:59.720 But you look at the likes of, you know, Robson and Cantona, 01:35:59.800 --> 01:36:02.840 and Roy Keane and Rooney. 01:36:02.920 --> 01:36:05.280 These were the personalities and characters that could do it, 01:36:05.360 --> 01:36:07.720 because they basically were that great a player. 01:36:08.280 --> 01:36:10.360 And they had that little bit of an edge to them, 01:36:10.440 --> 01:36:12.320 that they would go and do those types of things 01:36:12.400 --> 01:36:13.800 and that's what makes them stand out. 01:36:13.880 --> 01:36:17.680 Just days after saying he was intent on leaving Manchester United, 01:36:17.760 --> 01:36:21.000 Wayne Rooney has stunned fans by announcing he's staying after all. 01:36:21.080 --> 01:36:22.800 [TV reporter] Old friends. 01:36:22.880 --> 01:36:25.720 This is the image released this afternoon symbolising harmony 01:36:25.800 --> 01:36:29.440 between Manchester United's manager and star player. 01:36:29.520 --> 01:36:32.600 He apologised to me this morning and the players. 01:36:32.680 --> 01:36:35.520 And I think he'll do that with the fans, which is important 01:36:35.600 --> 01:36:40.120 because we've all been hurt by the events of the last couple of days. 01:36:40.200 --> 01:36:42.000 From now on, whatever he says, 01:36:42.080 --> 01:36:45.280 I think it will take improved performances on the pitch 01:36:45.360 --> 01:36:49.760 to convince many fans that Rooney is truly committed to this club, Fiona. 01:36:49.840 --> 01:36:52.480 I think if he looked back with hindsight, he'd be mature enough 01:36:52.560 --> 01:36:55.080 and honest enough to say, "I went around it probably the wrong way" 01:36:55.160 --> 01:36:56.560 if he was honest about it. 01:36:56.640 --> 01:36:59.080 But at the end of the day, did he get what he wanted? 01:36:59.160 --> 01:37:01.680 If he got the contract he wanted then he might sit there and go, 01:37:01.760 --> 01:37:03.280 "It's exactly what I needed to do." 01:37:07.280 --> 01:37:10.840 [commentator] 150 up for Manchester United for Wayne Rooney. 01:37:13.040 --> 01:37:19.040 He just needs another 100 to beat Sir Bobby Charlton. 01:37:20.240 --> 01:37:22.880 [Rooney] I thought I'll make the fans like me again. 01:37:22.960 --> 01:37:24.720 I'll get them singing my name again. 01:37:26.080 --> 01:37:27.920 [commentator] Here goes Rooney! 01:37:30.560 --> 01:37:32.600 [Rooney] I'd do anything for that club to win. 01:37:32.680 --> 01:37:35.040 I'd cheat for them to win. 01:37:36.400 --> 01:37:37.640 [commentator] Nani. 01:37:37.720 --> 01:37:40.040 Rooney! Oh, wonderful! 01:37:40.120 --> 01:37:41.800 What a goal! 01:37:42.320 --> 01:37:45.720 And what a time, in what a place! 01:37:46.080 --> 01:37:47.680 What a player! 01:37:48.760 --> 01:37:51.280 [interviewer] Have we all been lucky enough to witness something very special? 01:37:51.360 --> 01:37:53.400 Well, I haven't seen anything like it anyway, that's for sure. 01:37:54.400 --> 01:37:57.640 All the talk will be with that winning goal. It was unbelievable. 01:38:03.240 --> 01:38:05.560 [Rooney] We won league title after league title after league title. 01:38:05.640 --> 01:38:09.880 We got to three Champions League finals in four years. 01:38:10.560 --> 01:38:13.400 [commentator 1] Kicked it towards Giggs, who's onside, and Wayne Rooney! 01:38:13.480 --> 01:38:14.520 [commentator 2] Oh, yes! 01:38:14.600 --> 01:38:19.480 The best moment yet in the mercurial career of Wayne Rooney. 01:38:19.560 --> 01:38:21.600 [Rooney] In terms of what we achieved, 01:38:21.680 --> 01:38:26.080 it probably is the most successful four or five years in Premier League history. 01:38:26.160 --> 01:38:30.320 [commentator] Manchester United are champions yet again. 01:38:30.400 --> 01:38:34.840 [Rooney] But it gets lost because Man United in 1999 won the treble. 01:38:37.000 --> 01:38:37.960 [commentator] Rooney. 01:38:38.400 --> 01:38:42.000 Just brushes off Tompkins and goes for the spectacular! 01:38:46.280 --> 01:38:49.360 Wayne Rooney, extraordinary! 01:38:51.720 --> 01:38:54.320 [David Beckham] I was lucky enough to have played with him for England. 01:38:54.400 --> 01:38:56.920 He is, without doubt, one of the best players 01:38:57.000 --> 01:39:01.520 that this country has ever had and his records speak for itself. 01:39:04.480 --> 01:39:06.800 [crowd roaring] 01:39:10.840 --> 01:39:14.480 Rooney is, for sure, one of the best players England ever created. 01:39:14.560 --> 01:39:16.080 Best striker. 01:39:17.240 --> 01:39:20.680 [commentator] It's Rooney. Oh, my word! 01:39:21.040 --> 01:39:22.360 History! 01:39:23.200 --> 01:39:26.160 Sir Bobby Charlton's record is gone. 01:39:26.240 --> 01:39:29.320 And one man stands alone for Manchester United. 01:39:29.400 --> 01:39:31.800 [Rio Ferdinand] Nah, listen, the kid was a genius, man. 01:39:31.880 --> 01:39:35.440 It's mad what he was doing. He was an unbelievable player. 01:39:35.520 --> 01:39:38.520 Don't get the credit he deserves. Is he too common? 01:39:38.600 --> 01:39:41.480 Does he look too much like a normal geezer on the street maybe? 01:39:41.560 --> 01:39:43.760 I dunno. He don't look like a super star, does he? 01:39:45.480 --> 01:39:48.280 [Oliver Holt] We live in a kind of age of individualism. 01:39:48.360 --> 01:39:52.480 And we can see that in Messi and in Ronaldo. 01:39:52.560 --> 01:39:56.080 That was never the case with Rooney. He ended up doing the work for others. 01:39:56.160 --> 01:39:58.400 [commentator] There's some race the other way 01:39:58.480 --> 01:40:00.680 and look who's running hard after it defensively, 01:40:00.760 --> 01:40:02.440 Wayne Rooney... 01:40:02.520 --> 01:40:05.040 A big collision by the captain. 01:40:05.120 --> 01:40:07.200 That is unbelievable effort. 01:40:07.920 --> 01:40:09.720 Fair enough, he wants to do more. 01:40:09.800 --> 01:40:13.800 Cross-field ball! Goal! 01:40:14.440 --> 01:40:17.000 [Gary Neville] He would fight for everything 01:40:17.080 --> 01:40:19.640 to try and win the match. He was the ultimate team player. 01:40:19.720 --> 01:40:21.200 Ultimate team player. 01:40:28.480 --> 01:40:30.760 [Gary Neville] The biggest danger for Wayne is his focus, 01:40:30.840 --> 01:40:32.720 the minute he stops playing football. 01:40:32.800 --> 01:40:34.680 He's got the sort of the Gascoigne in him. 01:40:37.720 --> 01:40:39.240 It's like addiction. 01:40:39.320 --> 01:40:41.520 It's addiction in a good way. 01:40:41.600 --> 01:40:45.000 He's addicted to football. He's addicted to adrenaline. He's addicted to buzz. 01:40:47.480 --> 01:40:49.600 [TV presenter] Wayne Rooney says he wouldn't have changed 01:40:49.680 --> 01:40:53.720 a thing after bringing to an end his 19-year playing career. 01:40:53.800 --> 01:40:57.400 The former England captain has been named permanent manager of Derby County. 01:40:59.680 --> 01:41:02.280 [Rooney] It's a new beginning. I've closed one chapter in my life. 01:41:02.360 --> 01:41:05.760 There's a lot for me to improve on, a lot for me to learn, 01:41:05.840 --> 01:41:08.880 and try and, you know, give the best version of me 01:41:09.480 --> 01:41:10.800 and then, in the long term, 01:41:10.880 --> 01:41:13.480 to obviously try and get this club back into the Premier League. 01:41:14.240 --> 01:41:16.920 [Thierry] He's gonna need time. It's not easy. 01:41:17.000 --> 01:41:19.400 How do you deal with the press, how do you deal with the pressure? 01:41:19.480 --> 01:41:22.080 How do you deal with having the pressure of a team on your shoulder, 01:41:22.160 --> 01:41:26.440 a nation on your shoulder? And Wayne can tick all those boxes. 01:41:27.040 --> 01:41:30.320 He went for it. He did it and he came out of it. 01:41:30.400 --> 01:41:32.560 Uh, obviously bruised but he came out of it 01:41:32.640 --> 01:41:34.560 and now obviously he needs to put that, 01:41:34.920 --> 01:41:36.440 I dunno how he's gonna do it, 01:41:36.800 --> 01:41:40.080 in a nice way, to be able to be a good manager. 01:41:43.880 --> 01:41:47.080 [José Mourinho] I know that he knows, uh, football. 01:41:47.160 --> 01:41:49.680 He reads football. He leads. 01:41:49.760 --> 01:41:54.480 When he decides to go to the Championship and be a manager 01:41:54.560 --> 01:41:57.080 and start his career from there, it's because he loves it. 01:41:59.360 --> 01:42:03.920 Football is and will be part of my life till the day I die, 01:42:04.000 --> 01:42:05.520 whether I like it or not. 01:42:09.080 --> 01:42:13.880 [crowd chanting] Rooney!
