JAKARTA - In recent weeks, Wayne Rooney has criticized Kylian Mbappe and his former team, Manchester United for their way of playing. But in fact, he himself has a lot of homework as a DC United coach.
On July 30, Rooney made his coaching debut for DC United, a team he played for for for one season in 2018/19 as a player where he scored 25 goals.
It was a dream debut after his team made a comeback and made their first win. However, it seems, Rooney gave false hope. Since that match, DC United have only managed to collect one point from the possibility of 18.
Currently, Rooney's team is in last place in Eastern Region with just 22 points, far behind Chicago Fire who are in second place with an eight-point lead.
When Rooney took over, DC only bagged 18 points at the bottom of the table and ran a bad game without a win. However, it seems his arrival hasn't improved and the numbers are getting worse.
Their record was bleak; only scored twice and conceded 14 times in the last six games. Several defeats as suffered at home against Philadelphia (6) and in Charlotte (3-0) have killed the morale of the team.
The club's top brass have been trying to increase the squad's strength for next year and are looking to remove this dire season as soon as possible. Rooney has a big job in his hands.
