Wayne Rooney: Plymouth Argyle boss talks Coleen, pasties and shopping

“I’m not someone who, you know, sits in an apartment all day,” Rooney said when asked how he will adapt to life in Plymouth.

Much like in Newcastle, Barcelona or Exeter, the city’s football manager is one of the most recognisable faces.

“I went into Morrisons yesterday to get some food and some toiletries and stuff and it was self checkout, so there were no bags,” said Rooney of his shopping trip.

“So I was walking out with all my shopping in my hands and people were asking for pictures.

“I’m sure there’ll be a few pictures of me walking around looking like I’ve just stolen stuff from Morrisons, but I had the receipt with me, I promise.”

But people in Plymouth will be pleased to know that Wayne is happy for photos, autographs and voice notes.

“People will see me out and about, I am approachable and I’ve always been that way and so far everyone’s been great,” he added.
