Rooney doesn’t think that his National team can win the Euros. France have won the 2018 World Cup and their togetherness is their main strength. He feels that France are a very strong and experienced side with quality players in every position. Paul Pogba, Hugo Lloris, Kylian Mbappe, Antoine Griezmann, Raphael Varane and the return of Karim Benzema in the side makes them a very strong team full of Champions. One player that Rooney really likes is N’golo Kante. He reminds him of Claude Makelele and Yaya Toure. Kante protects the back line like Makelele and makes forward runs like Yaya Toure. Also, he has great stamina and work rate which makes him a complete midfielder.

Also, Rooney thinks that Sweden are a great side as well and the teams should not take them lightly. He also said that Eriksen’s Denmark are a strong team too.
