Darren Fletcher has spent some of the best years of his professional career alongside former team-mate and Manchester United’s record goal-scorer, Wayne Rooney.

The Scotland skipper tapped into all his feelings, memories and thoughts about Rooney and tied them neatly into one brilliant speech when he addressed the gathering at the FWA Tribute night.

Fletcher speaks about everything from the pranks and banter between them to Rooney’s exceptional display on and off the pitch.

Watch Fletcher speak about Rooney at the Football Writers’ Association Gala Night, in the above video.
