Wayne Rooney reveals bizarre bedtime routine as Man Utd fans claim club legend is still suffering ‘Fergie PTSD’
WAYNE ROONEY has blown away Alex Ferguson as the main man with a hairdryer – after revealing an astonishing bed-time habit.
The former England skipper admits he is an unusual kipper – as he always sleeps with a DRYER ON close by him if he’s alone at night.

There’s no doubt Rooney is struggling to match his legendary ex-Manchester United boss Fergie in the dugout.
But it’s not a load of hot air to say he can beat the fiery Scotsman at his own game by creating an electric atmosphere in a less heated way.
Fergie famously dished out the “hairdryer treatment” – blasting his United players at half-time if ever they were struggling.
But Rooney takes his own more expensive version to the opposite extreme – as he only uses COLD air!
The ex-Birmingham chief explained his oddball routine between the sheets while playing FIFA Pro Clubs with streamers Girth N Turf.
Speaking on the Twitch stream, the 38-year-old said: ‘If I’m in bed on my own, I sleep with the hairdryer on.. the whole night.
“I have it on cold. On my kids’ lives, I sleep with the hairdryer on and it’s in the bed right next to me blowing on my head.
“I’ve got two fans next to my bed as well.”

Rooney’s relationship with Treble-winning Ferguson blew hot and cold towards the end of the Evertonian’s 13 years at Old Trafford.
And the former striker’s in-game team-mates, such as Angry Ginge and Pieface, joked that his strange bed-time requirement suggests he’s suffering from “PTSD of Fergie shouting at you”.
But after spluttering spells in charge of Derby, DC United and Birmingham, Rooney still hopes he can awaken his managerial dreams.
Meanwhile, he’s tipped to be a BBC pundit at Euro 2024 this summer – despite missing his Match of the Day debut two weeks ago.
