EPL: Rooney reveals five players that controlled Manchester United dressing room

Wayne Rooney has revealed the players that “controlled the Manchester United dressing room” during his time at the club.

However, Rooney said it was always clear that no player would be allowed to believe they were bigger than the team.

“That would never be allowed to happen.

“The likes of Ryan Giggs, Gary Neville, Paul Scholes, Rio Ferdinand myself – players who had Man U in them and wanted the best for that club – would never allow anyone to mess that up.

“We controlled the dressing room ourselves. Alex Ferguson didn’t really need to control that. The players had the trust of the manager to do that themselves,” Rooney said in an interview with the Men In Blazers TV show.
