ROONEY: I COULD STILL PLAY IN PL
06/02/19
Former Manchester United and Everton striker Wayne Rooney believes he can still play in the Premier League.
Rooney, 33, left the Premier League to sign for MLS side DC United in June 2018 having scored 208 goals in 491 appearances in the English top flight.
"If I'm being honest, I know quality-wise, I can still play in the Premier League," he told CNN Sport.
"I know that. I've always been a confident person, and so I have high expectations of myself.
"And yeah, I've come here expecting to do well. And I think there was a surprise from people who have their opinions, which is fair enough, but I never doubted myself at all."
