Chriss Sutton has urged Manchester United to avoid appointing Wayne Rooney as the next manager. The pundit believes that the Englishman is not ready for the job and needs to stay away from Old Trafford.
Speaking on BBC 606, a Manchester United fan said that he wanted Erik ten Hag sacked with club legend Rooney replacing him. The fan added that the Englishman knows the club and will help sort things out. He said:
“Wayne Rooney, absolutely, I mean, come on, Ten Hag has lost it. Rooney is down there at Plymouth, he’s had a rough start, but they won, he knows the club, he’s played under Fergie, he’s a United legend get him in.”

Sutton was quick to say that the former Everton player was not ready to take the job and said:
“You say get Rooney in, but he’s had a rough start at Plymouth and things didn’t work at Birmingham, he did a decent job at Derby, but that’s your heart talking not your head. Not at this time no, it’s a no, not at this time."
Erik ten Hag has been under pressure at Old Trafford after a poor start to the season. The Red Devils have won just two of their six matches in the league and drew to FC Twente in the Europa League.
Wayne Rooney dreams about becoming the Manchester United manager one day
Wayne Rooney was on The Overlap and admitted that he would love to manage Everton or Manchester United. When he was pushed to pick one, the former striker went with the Red Devils as it would be the biggest change for him.
He said:
“It’s a tough one because I’ve always said that I’d love to manage Everton or Man United. I’d probably say United – that would be the pinnacle to manage Man United. Everton would be more from an emotional standpoint, a club I support and love, but United would be the pinnacle really.”
Manchester United currently do not have plans to appoint Wayne Rooney as their next manager. The Englishman is at Plymouth Argyle, who are 17th in the EFL Championship with two wins from their opening eight matches.
