In an exciting development for Plymouth Argyle, Wayne Rooney has appointed Mike Phelan, former assistant manager of Manchester United, as his new assistant head coach. This strategic move seeks to bolster the coaching team as the club aims to turn around its fortunes this season.

Phelan, a seasoned figure in football, brings with him an impressive track record. He served nine years at Manchester United during two different periods and worked under legendary managers Sir Alex Ferguson and Ole Gunnar Solskjær. During his tenure, Phelan played a pivotal role in guiding the team to three Premier League titles, the FIFA Club World Cup, and two League Cups.

Rooney expressed his enthusiasm, stating, "Mike is someone I know well from my playing days at Manchester United, and he has a wealth of experience at the highest levels of football. I am thrilled to have him join us at Argyle, and I can't wait to see him implemented his strategies with the team."

This appointment comes after the departure of Rooney's previous assistant, Pete Shuttleworth, who left the club by mutual consent. The changing of the guard reflects the urgent need for revitalization within the squad, especially since Plymouth Argyle currently finds itself struggling in the Championship, positioned at 22nd place after 18 grueling rounds of matches.

As Rooney continues to settle into his role, supporters are hopeful that the experienced coaching duo of Rooney and Phelan will pave the way for a resurgence in the club's performance. Fans eagerly await the impact of this collaboration and the steps they will take to uplift the spirit and success of Plymouth Argyle. Will this partnership lead to a miraculous turnaround for the struggling club? Only time will tell!
