Wayne Rooney Under Pressure as Birmingham City Manager

Wayne Rooney faces high expectations as the new manager of Birmingham City, according to Gabby Agbonlahor and Alan Brazil. Agbonlahor argues that Rooney needs to lead the team to the playoffs, while Brazil suggests that a successful stint at Birmingham could lead to a managerial position at Everton. Sam Wallace of The Telegraph also highlights the challenge Rooney faces at Birmingham, emphasizing the attention the club will receive. Rooney's appointment to replace John Eustace leaves no room for excuses, says Dickinson Times. Despite rejecting an offer in Saudi Arabia, Rooney accepted the Birmingham job. Meanwhile, Sheffield Wednesday is close to appointing Danny Rohl as their new manager.
