More From Wayne Rooney
- "I just hate losing and that gives you an extra determination to work harder."
- "Becoming a dad was the proudest moment of my life. Playing football does not even compare."
- "You can learn more from the lows than the highs. The highs are great but the lows make you really look at things in a different way and want to improve. Every player will have both in their careers and I have, but what you get is that experience which is so important to perform at your best."
