Wayne Rooney urges more English managers to stop being 'stubborn' and consider moves abroad... as ex-Derby County boss praises new Chelsea boss Graham Potter for helping break the mould after his experience in Sweden

Wayne Rooney has urged more English managers to stop being 'stubborn' consider jobs abroad in order to get better and develop themselves as coaches.

The former Manchester United and Everton striker is currently coaching in the MLS with DC United after leaving Derby County in the summer following their relegation from the Championship to League One.

Rooney did a good job at Pride Park, but could not help the team remain in England's second division as a points deduction after the club went into administration left them fighting an uphill battle.
