Derby look like they don’t fancy a long stay in league one getting plenty of steady old pros in
Like most business people, if you invest, and do not have access to buckets of money, you have to invest in the short term to recouperate your investment. Investing in a football club is lunacy and for some unknown reason many a grown man has gambled their entire fortunes to have the feeling of owning a club.
Nice bit of living overseas, probably gets paid well, of he does ok can walk into a job here whenever he wants. Have seen more bizarre!Rooney apparently off to manage DC United, which is a bizarre decision from him IMO.

Supposedly his family prefers living in the UK to the US, and the DC area is a painfully dull place to live in any case. Meanwhile DC United are a perennially underperforming (and currently extremely crap) team in a league where the transfer restrictions and playoff format make it very difficult to achieve sustained success.
Maybe he’s encouraged by success stories like Jesse Marsch and Patrick Vieira but it seems to me like he’s taking the comfortable option here.
It's also the no-lose option, which is surely a half-wise thing to do?Supposedly his family prefers living in the UK to the US, and the DC area is a painfully dull place to live in any case.

Well if he’s an outright failure there then his chances of managing in the Premier League are probably over (Phil Neville’s reputation now is worse than it was before he left England Women for Inter Miami). So it’s not entirely risk free. On the other hand, if he goes out there and DC United dominate (very unlikely) then it’s a case of “it’s only MLS”.
Seems to me like he just wants an easier/low stakes job out of the limelight.
Such a strange decision of hisDC United lost 6-0 at home last night. Since Rooney took over: W1, D1, L4
Didn't think he could build a squad when individual wages were limited to ONLY 12k p/w as part of their coming out of administration business plan!!!Such a strange decision of his
