Wayne is joined by Kelly Somers, Kae Kurd and Adam McKola to look back on some of the most unforgettable matches and moments of his remarkable career.

Wayne reflects on the goal that announced him to the world: his iconic strike for Everton against Arsenal in 2002. He describes the goal from his own perspective, admits how shocked he felt by the sheer size of the Arsenal players in the Goodison Park tunnel, and explains how that moment changed his life.

The conversation then turns to Euro 2004, as Wayne relives his two goals against Croatia and explains why he genuinely felt he was the best player in the world heading into the tournament. From there, the panel revisit Manchester United’s dramatic Champions League final victory over Chelsea in 2008, with Wayne revealing Sir Alex Ferguson’s unforgettable pre-match team talk, why he thought it was all over when John Terry stepped up to take Chelsea’s 5th penalty and how inspiring words from Sir Bobby Charlton convinced him United were destined to lift the trophy. He also shares the story of the cheeky fan who somehow blagged his way onto the pitch and into the post-match party.

Wayne also looks back on United’s astonishing 8–2 win over Arsenal in 2011, revealing how shocked the players were by the scoreline and where his hat-trick ranks among his favourite treble performances. He also reflects on former team-mate Anderson, discussing why the Brazilian’s career perhaps never matched his immense talent.

The episode closes with memories from Wayne’s later United years, including the 2017 draw with Stoke that saw him become the club’s all-time leading goalscorer, and why he credits José Mourinho in part for that landmark goal. Wayne debates whether records or trophies matter more, recalls what drove him to win the FA Cup in 2016, and reveals the goalkeeper he once told he would chip, before going out and doing exactly that.

Wayne, Kelly and Kae react to Manchester United’s 2-0 derby win over Manchester City, with Wayne explaining what he loved about the performance, why the game was so significant for Michael Carrick, and whether he’s spoken to him since the final whistle.

Wayne also pinpoints why it felt straight out of Sir Alex Ferguson’s era, reveals what made him jump up and shout “That’s Manchester United!”, and explains why Carrick bringing rondos back into training has mattered.

Wayne also has strong views on Oliver Glasner’s explosive comments, arguing why he thinks Glasner may be looking for a way out of the club, what’s really triggered his frustration, and why so many Premier League managers are now openly criticising club execs.

Tottenham fan and comedian Josh James joins the pod to vent his frustration at Spurs’ struggles under Thomas Frank. Josh explains why the job has become so difficult for managers at Tottenham, debates whether Frank should be under pressure, and makes the case for why Mauricio Pochettino could be the man to reunite the fanbase.

The Wayne Rooney Show is back with a heavyweight panel as Wayne, Kelly and Kae are joined by The Athletic’s David Ornstein and Manchester United fan and broadcaster Adam McKola to break down a huge week at Old Trafford.

The discussion centres on Manchester United’s decision to appoint Michael Carrick as interim manager, with Ornstein explaining why the club hierarchy opted for Carrick over Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Darren Fletcher. Wayne gives a unique insight into Carrick’s character, revealing the steely side of his former teammate and why he won’t be a soft touch in the dugout.

Adam goes big with his theory that the club should make an all-out move for Jürgen Klopp, Wayne delivers his verdict on Steve Holland’s arrival in the backroom staff and Ornstein reveals whether United could be active in the January transfer window.

Wayne, Kelly and Kae tackle the latest uncertainty at Manchester United amid reports that Michael Carrick or Ole Gunnar Solskjaer could return as interim manager.

Wayne explains why he believes Carrick is the right fit for the role, whether he’d consider joining his backroom team, and what his very first message to the players would be if he stepped back into the club. He also names his ideal long-term appointment at United and debates whether it still matters to have coaches with a deep history and understanding of the club, questioning if United has lost its famous family feel.

Wayne’s brother, John Rooney, also joins the pod to reflect on Macclesfield’s incredible FA Cup upset victory over Crystal Palace. John reveals the secrets behind the win and shares a brilliant behind-the-scenes story of his captain clearing snow off the pitch on a tractor in the build-up to the match.

In a powerful moment, John opens up about how difficult it was addressing the squad following the tragic death of one of his players, Ethan McLeod.

Wayne and John also reminisce about playing football together as kids, including the story of John smashing a window at home just before Wayne’s FA Youth Cup Final appearance.

Wayne, Kelly and Kae dig into Ruben Amorim’s post-match comments after the 1–1 draw at Leeds. Wayne shares why he found them to be confusing: is Amorim speaking with too much authority, or is the criticism unfair given the state of the squad?

Wayne questions the criticism that he and other Manchester United legends are too harsh on the team, and admits he’s written off United’s Champions League hopes this season. The panel also debate whether Amorim gets too emotional after defeats, if he’ll see out the end of his contract, and Wayne explains what made him so disappointed with United’s recent display against Wolves.

With Liam Rosenior rumoured to be in line for the Chelsea job, Wayne explains what sets his former assistant manager apart as a coach and why he’s backing him to do well at Stamford Bridge, while the panel discuss the broader aspect of a young English coach being given a rare opportunity at a top Premier League club. Wayne also shares his thoughts on Enzo Maresca’s exit and owner interference in football clubs, and there’s a chat on the title race after Manchester City were held by Chelsea.

It’s part two of our best moments from The Wayne Rooney Show so far.

Wayne recalls when Sir Alex Ferguson refused to speak to the entire Manchester United squad for two weeks after a defeat, and what that silence did to the dressing room. Wayne also opens up about the Liverpool-Everton rivalry inside his own household and the time a Liverpool fan threw a mobile phone at him after he scored at Anfield.

There’s a debate on the modern game as internet sensation Steve Bracknall makes his feelings very clear about xG and the rise of football statistics. Wayne then rewinds to 2004 and explains why Sol Campbell stopped speaking to him after Wayne won a crucial penalty against him - a moment that clearly lingered longer for one side than the other.

Coleen lifts the lid on what Wayne is really like at home and Wayne also gives his reaction to Michael Owen’s comments that he was a better player at a younger age than Wayne. Former England teammate Emile Heskey joins in with a hilarious story from international duty, revealing how Wayne once absolutely hammered Gary Neville.

Tottenham’s Xavi Simons talks about Neymar being his childhood idol, prompting a brilliant revelation from Wayne about how he used to write letters to Duncan Ferguson while he was in prison.

Christmas is a time of reflection and so here at The Wayne Rooney Show, we’ve decided to give you the best moments from the show so far.

Wayne opens up about a surprisingly strong grievance with Mr Tumble, before rewinding to a star-studded party in the US that took an unexpected turn when he ended the night pushing Coleen through a drive-thru… in a shopping trolley.

Football rivalry takes centre stage as Wayne reflects on the Manchester United vs Arsenal feud, including exactly what happened in Pizzagate. He also imagines how he’d cope in I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here and reacts to Danny Jones’ close encounter with a snake and find out why Wayne offered out Joe Calzaghe at a wedding.

The stories keep coming as Wayne explains how he tried to bring swords home from Saudi Arabia, recalls a surreal trip to South Korea where he ended up dressed in a school uniform alongside Rio Ferdinand and Bastian Schweinsteiger, and remembers the moment he and Rio somehow found themselves on stage with 50 Cent.

It’s a festive special of The Wayne Rooney Show as Wayne, Kelly Somers and Kae Kurd are joined by Sam Allardyce and Dion Dublin for a Christmas catch-up. Wayne reveals his eyebrow-raising Christmas dinner choices and what the big day is really like in the Rooney household, while the panel lifts the lid on how footballers actually spend Christmas.

Big Sam recalls the moment he discovered a West Ham player had gone home for Christmas and wasn’t coming back for the next game, and shares stories from an era when playing on Christmas Day - and drinking afterwards - was all part of the job. Dion explains why some players deliberately stayed out of their manager’s way over the festive period, how he ended up releasing a Christmas album, and why he’s recently popped up on EastEnders.

There are also tales of expensive bottles of wine being demolished by Wayne’s father-in-law, bumping into the entire Liverpool squad in hospital, sunshine mid-season breaks to Dubai (including one Wayne missed), and a debate on whether having just one Premier League game on Boxing Day has ruined a great footballing tradition.
