You need proper owners in football to succeed. It starts at the top if you are owned by clowns you end up being a circus. Leeds for example had a succession of joker owners and ended  up as a laughing stock for 16 or so years. A succession of small clubs like Bournemouth and Brentford have succeeded recently due to good leadership. If you get professional leadership who are invested in progressing a football club and the football club is their main focus and not personal agendas and ego trips that club will prosper. Match good leadership with a big club and  Derby are that and there is only one direction you go and that is up.

This is a mismatch in as much as financial fair play does not apply to relegate clubs from the Premier League. Parachute payments make a mockery of any fair play. West Brom were able to retain their Premier League squad. They raked in a further £17m  for selling just 3 players two of them squad players, if that. They did not pay any transfer fees but were able to recruit two free transfers Alex Mowatt from Barnsley, the Barnsley player of the season last year and Adam Reach from Sheffield Wednesday plus a couple of loanees from Brighton. They had an average age of 25. Derby trading in the transfer market with their legs and arms tied together got 4 players on frees with an average age of over 33. 
 
However  this is the year of the underdog, the year when a tennis player representing GB makes it through qualifiers to get to the Us Women’s open final,  so I go for WBA 1 Derby 2

On the other hand if it does turn out fine, pessimists may have missed the odd disappointment but have spent most of their life feeling negative and miserable. Worry about things that may or may not happen destroys the soul especially if it is something that the worrier has no control over.

Rooney was a great player. For some reason when applying for a managerial job a playing history carries more weight than it perhaps it should. A good manager, or head coach as it may be in 2021, needs above all to have the ability to teach, he can have as many international caps as you like , if he cannot organise, react to in game situations and teach his players coherently his playing career  is irrelevant.
In the Premier League 16 of the managers did not win any caps at all only Hassenhuttl 8 with Austria, Solskjaer 67 with Norway, Vieira  107 for France and Guardiola 47 for Spain have caps.
There are few great players that have the ability to become great managers. In the Premier League perhaps only Guardiola can have the great tag for both codes. That is what management is, it is a different code to playing requiring a completely different skill set.
 
The question about Rooney is does he have the managerial skill set?
