Wayne Rooney says he felt "proud" of his Derby County players despite seeing his side relegated from the Championship on Easter Monday - before addressing what the result means for his own future at the club.
Derby lost 1-0 at Queens Park Rangers with Luke Amos' goal late in the game condemning the Rams to the third tier next season, with Tom Lawrence shown a red card in stoppage time. Reading's remarkable comeback to seal a 4-4 draw at home to Swansea means Derby are ten points behind them with only three games left to play.
Speaking in the aftermath of relegation, Rooney was asked for his feelings on the relegation, and told Sky Sports: "Proud. Which is a strange feeling because of everything we've been through. There's so many positives for us to take. Of course it's disappointing to go down but the overall feeling is pride."
