While Wayne Rooney, 39, made her big debut as a columnist for ” Match of Ze Day In England yesterday, the former Manchester United captain did not chew his words about Alexander Isak. The former English international strongly criticized the attitude of the Swedish striker, still on strike and refusing to play for Newcastle in order to force his transfer to Liverpool. “The fact that he refuses to come and train will make his return very difficult. There is a question of confidence, he does it badly. Maybe he is poorly advised ”launched Rooney dryly, before going further: “For the team trying to sign it, in this case Liverpool, you must ask yourself if it is the kind of player you want … who will abandon his teammates and a big club. It's a good opportunity, but it must be done in the right way. »»
Rooney knows what he is talking about, he who had asked to leave Manchester United in 2010, with Chelsea in ambush. But the Englishman wanted to mark a difference in size with the attitude of Isak. “There is the right way and the wrong way to do it. And I myself was in this situation when I asked Manchester United to leave ”he recognized, before Alan Shearer underlines: “But you have filed a transfer request. You have not refused to train, you have not refused to play. »» Then Wayne Rooney supported: “Isak is not doing it at all in the right way. The players are struggling today for the club, for the thousands of fans who move, but they see another player who refuses to play despite a three -year contract and a salary of more than £ 100,000 per week. We can't do that. »»
