Clough’s burn-out warning to Rooney

BRIAN CLOUGH has warned Everton’s Wayne Rooney to be wary of burning out after his impressive England debut.

The former Nottingham Forest and Derby manager, who survived an eight-hour liver operation in January, believes the 17-year-old could be in danger of burn-out if he lets fame go to his head.

Clough said: “He’s absolutely incredible at 17. He’s 17 going on 47 now. It is a different world to when I was 17.”
