This week has been a big one for Manchester United’s Wayne Rooney, largely due to the fact the former Everton forward was celebrating his tenth year in Premier League football, but also because he has taken on the role of one of his heroes, James Bond.
Ever since Rooney belted in that screamer against Arsenal as a 16-year old, albeit a beefy 16-year old, he has been destined for big things and he has finally done just that.
Forget about the 200 league goals he has scored for his clubs, forget the 78 games he has appeared for his country and forget about his successful *cough* hair transplant that he had last summer, Wayne Rooney is the new 007, sort of.
In this short spoof, alongside Patrice Evra and Ryan Giggs, Rooney is portrayed as Bond and is seen in rigorous, high-speed chases, high impact explosions and taking down the bad guys, just a normal Saturday for Wayne.
Warning, this clip contains woeful acting by Wazza.
