It's 15-years today since Wayne Rooney announced his arrival in the Premier League by cracking the ball off the underside of the crossbar and past David Seaman from 40-odd yards.

"He was obviously, as soon as he came up, we'd all heard about him training at the under 18s, under 16s training ground which was separate from where we trained ... We'd got wind that he was going to be coming up and joining us quite shortly.

"When he came up it was just unbelievable to see such a young lad with a fantastic football brain ... He was very confident in his ability, a lot like a lot of young lads who are just about to break through.

"They have no fear, they're fearless in what they do, they don't feel pressure or nothing," Stubbs told Off The Ball.
