Frank Lampard Backs Rooney Amidst Euro 2016 loss



Frank Lampard, former Chelsea midfielder and Manchester city player who is currently playing for New York City FC in Major League Soccer has come out to show his support for the Man united striker and England midfielder, Wayne Rooney after dropping out of the Euro 2016 tournament being held in France losing to Iceland in the round of 16 match.



Frank Lampard, 38 years old told BBC, 

"He's our talisman, he's our greatest goalscorer, he's experienced and you don't want that to walk away at this stage,"

"I would want him in the team and in the squad. He has certainly got another tournament in him."

"Sadly, when his team needed him, Rooney was not that leader,"

"You need someone who can provide the impetus and rhythm. I thought Rooney could take the role but, when it mattered, he wasn't able to do it." he said.
