Wayne Rooney sets sights on Premier League return

Former Manchester United star Wayne Rooney has spoken out on his Premier League days. Rooney, who has played for Premier League clubs Everton and Manchester United, made his move to MLS side DC United in the summer of 2018 and now is looking forward of becoming a player-coach at Championship club Derby County from January 2020. When asked about his Premier League days, Rooney said: “I still felt I could do it at Everton – but other people made the ­decisions on that. But it’s important to understand that football’s not about running around, it’s about using your brain. It’s about using your head to play the game, and I feel I can still do that. “They way you create time and space... knowing the game by putting yourself in the right positions. Look at the number of times we’ve seen young players with real speed, but they don’t know how to use it properly. “I feel those facts get lost with me – perhaps unfairly – because I don’t score as many goals. It’s a shame. With ­respect to my legs, I’m not the quickest player – but in my head I am. “So, in answer to the question, given the right team around me, I probably could. Obviously, the two clubs I’ve played for in the Premier League have been Everton and Manchester United . I’m a Derby player now and hopefully I can get there with them and they can become the third club if I do.” source - Mirror
