Football legend Wayne Rooney, joined by Kelly Somers and Kae Kurd, returned with another electrifying episode of The Wayne Rooney Show to dissect Manchester City’s 3–0 triumph over Liverpool.
Rooney described City’s dominant performance as one that would have sent “a chill down the spine of every Arsenal fan”, given how sharp Pep Guardiola’s men looked. But he also questioned — was City simply unstoppable, or did Liverpool fall short of their usual standards?
The trio also took time to praise Sunderland’s impressive league form, highlighting the leadership of captain Granit Xhaka, who Rooney believes could be “the signing of the season.” Drawing on his own experience as a captain, Rooney explained how seasoned leaders like Xhaka play a crucial role in guiding younger teammates through difficult matches.
They also tackled Jamie Carragher’s recent claim that the Premier League isn’t as competitive or entertaining as it once was — a statement Rooney strongly disagreed with, offering his own perspective on the league’s evolution.
The discussion didn’t stop there — the team analyzed Manchester United’s 2–2 draw with Tottenham, and Rooney shared his impressions from his visit to Everton’s new stadium, praising Jack Grealish’s consistency after another standout performance against Fulham.
