December 23-in a book called Rooney: my decade in the Premier League, Rooney looks back on a history between him and Sir Alex Ferguson.
Rooney said: “Ferguson looks good, but the next day I experienced his legendary influence.” It was a beautiful afternoon, so I decided to drive to Crocky (Croxteth, Liverpool) to visit my family. I saw my parents in the parking lot of the local bar. I stopped to say hello and decided to have a drink.
I only stayed there for 10 or 15 minutes and went home, but a day later Ferguson called me to his office, and it was the first time I was called by him, and he asked me, ‘Wayne, what were you doing at that bar in Croxteth yesterday?’ ”
