Prem: Lawrenson on Rooney | Setanta
Manchester United's Sir Alex Ferguson And Wayne Rooney Had Bust-Up, Reveals Lawrenson - Goal.com
Former Liverpool player Mark Lawrenson has claimed Wayne Rooney had a ‘massive row’ with Sir Alex Ferguson before the Fulham game.
Having played the full 90 minutes in the 4-1 defeat to Liverpool, Rooney was left on the bench for the following game against Fulham.
He was introduced as a half-time substitute at Craven Cottage but, as United went down to a 2-0 defeat, the England star was shown two yellow cards and reacted furiously as he left the field.
And Lawrenson, speaking to Radio 5 Live, has now said that Rooney did not start against Fulham due to a training ground row with Ferguson.
According to The Mail on Sunday, Lawrenson said: “Everybody knows he had a massive row with Fergie after the Liverpool game and was then left out.
“It’s an ongoing problem but, if anyone can deal with it, it is Sir Alex.”
