ALEX FERGUSON has told Wayne Rooney to forget about quitting Manchester United after snubbing the striker’s latest transfer request.
Rooney this week asked to quit Old Trafford for the second time in three years.
But Fergie said: “We have refused it. I think he should go away and think about it again.
“He wasn’t happy about being brought off in games this season. Wayne Rooney in top form wouldn’t be taken off.”
, Fergie has revealed how he decided to retire in DECEMBER.
The Scot shocked football on Wednesday by announcing his plans to quit at the end of the season.
But he has today told how the tipping point came at Christmas when his wife’s sister passed away.
Ferguson said: “I decided to retire last Christmas. Things changed when my wife Cathy’s sister died. She has lost her best friend, her sister. Also, I wanted to go out a winner.
“It was very difficult. There were times when we sometimes blurted it out to the family. We told our sons in March. My brother didn’t even know until Tuesday.
“The most important achievement was winning the first league and the door opened after that. We just grew and grew and grew. We had some fantastic teams.
“I’ve got a lot of things to do. My son Jason’s been organising things. I won’t be sitting still.”
