Wayne is joined by Kelly Somers, Kae Kurd and Adam McKola to look back on some of the most unforgettable matches and moments of his remarkable career.

Wayne reflects on the goal that announced him to the world: his iconic strike for Everton against Arsenal in 2002. He describes the goal from his own perspective, admits how shocked he felt by the sheer size of the Arsenal players in the Goodison Park tunnel, and explains how that moment changed his life.

The conversation then turns to Euro 2004, as Wayne relives his two goals against Croatia and explains why he genuinely felt he was the best player in the world heading into the tournament. From there, the panel revisit Manchester United’s dramatic Champions League final victory over Chelsea in 2008, with Wayne revealing Sir Alex Ferguson’s unforgettable pre-match team talk, why he thought it was all over when John Terry stepped up to take Chelsea’s 5th penalty and how inspiring words from Sir Bobby Charlton convinced him United were destined to lift the trophy. He also shares the story of the cheeky fan who somehow blagged his way onto the pitch and into the post-match party.

Wayne also looks back on United’s astonishing 8–2 win over Arsenal in 2011, revealing how shocked the players were by the scoreline and where his hat-trick ranks among his favourite treble performances. He also reflects on former team-mate Anderson, discussing why the Brazilian’s career perhaps never matched his immense talent.

The episode closes with memories from Wayne’s later United years, including the 2017 draw with Stoke that saw him become the club’s all-time leading goalscorer, and why he credits José Mourinho in part for that landmark goal. Wayne debates whether records or trophies matter more, recalls what drove him to win the FA Cup in 2016, and reveals the goalkeeper he once told he would chip, before going out and doing exactly that.

Wayne, Kelly and Kae react to Manchester United’s 2-0 derby win over Manchester City, with Wayne explaining what he loved about the performance, why the game was so significant for Michael Carrick, and whether he’s spoken to him since the final whistle.

Wayne also pinpoints why it felt straight out of Sir Alex Ferguson’s era, reveals what made him jump up and shout “That’s Manchester United!”, and explains why Carrick bringing rondos back into training has mattered.

Wayne also has strong views on Oliver Glasner’s explosive comments, arguing why he thinks Glasner may be looking for a way out of the club, what’s really triggered his frustration, and why so many Premier League managers are now openly criticising club execs.

Tottenham fan and comedian Josh James joins the pod to vent his frustration at Spurs’ struggles under Thomas Frank. Josh explains why the job has become so difficult for managers at Tottenham, debates whether Frank should be under pressure, and makes the case for why Mauricio Pochettino could be the man to reunite the fanbase.

The Wayne Rooney Show is back with a heavyweight panel as Wayne, Kelly and Kae are joined by The Athletic’s David Ornstein and Manchester United fan and broadcaster Adam McKola to break down a huge week at Old Trafford.

The discussion centres on Manchester United’s decision to appoint Michael Carrick as interim manager, with Ornstein explaining why the club hierarchy opted for Carrick over Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Darren Fletcher. Wayne gives a unique insight into Carrick’s character, revealing the steely side of his former teammate and why he won’t be a soft touch in the dugout.

Adam goes big with his theory that the club should make an all-out move for Jürgen Klopp, Wayne delivers his verdict on Steve Holland’s arrival in the backroom staff and Ornstein reveals whether United could be active in the January transfer window.
