Wayne Rooney would be forgiven for turning down the manager's position at DC United after the MLS side suffered record-equalling defeat to Philadelphia Union on Friday night.
DC are reportedly considering offering Rooney the manager's role after sacking head coach Hernan Losada in April and placing Chad Ashton in charge on an interim basis. DC are currently 13th in the MLS' Eastern Conference, eight points off a play-off spot.
Rooney is a free agent after leaving troubled Derby County last month. He would have to discuss his next job with wife Coleen, although she isn't a fan of Washington and DC's recent humiliation may just make the Englishman's decision a bit easier.
