Rooney's warning for Man Utd & Amorim
Speaking on , the England legend said: "There was an image towards the end of the game, where I was seeing the Man Utd fans leaving. I've never seen that. In my time, I've never seen Man Utd fans leaving and you could hear the fans singing Amorim's name, but I think that is so powerful that the Man Utd fans were leaving the game because they knew the game is over and I think there were very disappointed in what they've seen. So it's hard to see how it continues."
