The former Man Utd and Everton striker has been a breath of fresh air in the TV studio.
When Wayne Rooney was a player, it was hard to envisage him carving out a career for himself in the media. It was hard to envisage him doing anything but pestering defenders and scoring goals, such was his laser-like focus on his football.
There were always the stories about Rooney the dressing room prankster. In his early United days, he once changed the TV channel at Carrington from the rugby league to the X-Factor simply to irritate Roy Keane. He and Darren Fletcher once cut holes in Wes Brown's much-loved trainers. Reaching the 50-game milestone probably didn't even register to a teenage Rooney, hence his astonishment at Richards' reaction. He probably just shrugged and smiled when he reached 250 goals. And his deadpan delivery – albeit with a glint in his eye – told you exactly what you need to know about him, now, at 38, comfortable with himself and his status within the game.
There have been other such razor-sharp moments from Rooney in recent weeks, but perhaps it's all been said in a certain context; in the knowledge that Rooney wouldn't be in the pundit's chair for long. "You know as a manager is part of the job and you will have setbacks. It's about how you bounce back.
