Coleen Rooney defends dropped Wayne in Twitter rant
Coleen Rooney has defended her husband Wayne after he was booed during England's 2-0 win over Malta on Saturday, saying: "We're not plastic, he's not plastic, we are people."
Rooney: I won't quit
Rooney was booed by a section of supporters at Wembley and interim manager Gareth Southgate confirmed on Monday that the Three Lions captain will not be in his team to face Slovenia on Tuesday.
Posting on Twitter before Southgate revealed Rooney has been dropped, Coleen wrote in one reply to a critical fan: "Shut up you absolute idiot."
"Love the way Anyone & Everyone has to have an Opinion," she posted at the start of a series of tweets.
