The defeat of Birmingham City yesterday in front of him Leeds United (3-0) left the team in 20th position, six points from the relegation zone in the Championship, and its coach, the legendary Wayne Rooney, peering over the cliff. Displaced fans didn’t like it and weren’t shy about booing him and asking him to leave now. And when he took over the team in mid-October, they were sixth in the table.
However, the 38-year-old former Manchester United and Everton player has shown no intention of going anywhere. Quite the opposite. “I am a fighter. I understand that people have opinions, but I believe in myself. In football there are ups and downs, even during my time as a player I went through difficult times. This is just a matter of continuing to fight,” he said after yesterday’s game.
