He also confirmed some truths - one about how he would sing along to songs from Oliver Twist while getting a massage.

Rooney, 38, preferred to have his massage after dinner - as did John Terry and Frank Lampard.

The pair would even be looked after by a masseuse from Chelsea named Bill, who would go the extra mile to look after them.

Rooney recalled their treatment, saying: “I used to get one [massage] at 9pm, but the last ones after me were always JT [John Terry] and Lamps [Frank Lampard].

“Bill, who was the Chelsea masseuse, was there and he’d massage them, then they’d go into bed and get their feet out under the bed, and he’d massage them until they fell asleep.

“Gospel truth. He'd massage their feet until they fell asleep then he tucked them in. I swear.”

Gary Neville was left in stitches, crying out: "No wonder we f***ing lost!"

Roy Keane then had his say on masseuses and slammed those who got too big for their boots on occasion.

Keane said: “What used to annoy me was the lads who used to do the massages, they’d get a bit cocky. They settle into the club then they think they’re running the show, have got the music on and the team wins something, and all the masseurs would be on the pitch – just relax lads.

“They all get a bit cocky, every one of them. We’re having a night out, free bar, and then they’d come with all their mates – ‘you’re bringing your mates,’ relax. ‘Are we getting medals,’ no you’re not getting a medal, relax.

“Then they’d be wearing their headphones as if they were players, coming off the bus and you’re thinking, just relax, oh my god. ‘Anyone selling their car?’ – they’d try and buy the players cars on the cheap, are you’re like lads relax.

“What happens to them [masseuses], they become mates with them [players], play golf with them and then they think they’re a coach, a manager, and best buddies with all the players and before you know it, they’re an agent, advising them.

“Do you know what else they do? They hang around and get players boots. They end up having loads of boots and the lads’ trainers – scavengers in the dressing room.

“Get rid of all the masseurs, every one of them. You have managers going they’re really important. They are not important.”
