‘Rooney will follow Lampard & Gerrard’s lead’ – Hodgson backs Man Utd legend to be top boss

Wayne Rooney can follow the lead of fellow England centurions Steven Gerrard and Frank Lampard by becoming a top manager, says Roy Hodgson, the man who handed 100 international caps to the iconic trio.

The former Three Lions boss was fortunate enough to work with some top talent during his time in the post, and is now a direct coaching rival of those he once called upon.

Lampard is a Premier League foe of Hodgson at Crystal Palace after taking the reins at Chelsea.
