Amusing quote about Rooney's ending at Derby
Sounds familiar!
[In spring 2021] form faltered badly with just one win from fourteen leaving Derby firmly in trouble, with Rooney's side being criticised for their poor game management and sloppy defending, and suggestion that Rooney came across "as a manager who’s accepted defeat, who’s surrender [sic] himself to whatever results might come his way" and should be replaced. Others defended Rooney, saying that though he had made mistakes, particularly in making "too many changes to personnel and shape/tactics" he had not been helped by injuries and too many players who had "been inconsistent (and) unable to maintain form both during a game and from game to game."
Sounds familiar!
