Derek Ferguson On The Potential Gerrard-Rooney Coaching Duo

Derek Ferguson during his talks with Ibrox News about Wayne Rooney that  “I quite like the fact that Rooney has put himself out there in terms of managerial jobs, albeit it’s not worked for him. Imagine Gerrard coming back to the club as manager and Rooney as his assistant. Something crazy like that, you know? The likes of Gerrard and Rooney, they’re football men. The one thing they have instantly is respect with the players. Players will listen to guys like that, who have been there and done it. So who knows? It would be surreal, but nothing surprises you in football. I quite like the sound of that.”
