Wayne Rooney has been dismissed as the head coach of Plymouth Argyle after a brief seven-month stint with the Championship team. The 39-year-old former England and Manchester United striker was appointed in May but leaves with Plymouth languishing at the bottom of the English second tier, having secured only four wins in 23 games this season.
Rooney's tenure came to an end following a 2-0 defeat to Oxford United on Sunday, marking Plymouth's ninth consecutive game without a victory.
