Rooney spoke about a number of his former Manchester United teammates and started off by talking about Cristiano Ronaldo.
“Cristiano [Ronaldo] was so good and so “f0rking” annoying at the same time,” he said.
“He is probably not as good now, but he is probably just as annoying.”
He then mocked the 37-year-old’s tactics during the 2006 World Cup, when he looked to get Rooney sent off in the quarter-final between Portugal and England.
“He likes diving,” he said.
“I had no issue with Cristiano whatsoever.
“I spoke to him in the tunnel. I said, ‘I have no issue with you getting me sent off’, because I’d spent the first half trying to get him booked for diving.”
Rooney then added that the pair have always had a good relationship.
“I am English, he is Portuguese,” he said.
“When we are playing I do not give an f about him. He is not my mate.
“But when we have finished, we are mates again.”
Rooney also claimed speaking to Tevez was ‘the biggest disappointment of my life’ because of the Argentine’s poor communication.
‘For two years I loved playing with him,’ said Rooney.
‘I used to pick him up from his house for Champions League games and drive him to the airport. We’d play the game and come back.
United’s all-time leading goalscorer was speaking about his former teammates at a dinner event on Saturday evening and didn’t hold back when giving his verdict.
According to The Sun, Rooney said of Ronaldo: ‘Cristiano was so good and so f**kn annoying at the same time.
‘He is probably not as good now but he is probably just as annoying.’
Rooney also took aim at Ferdinand during the event: ‘Rio is a top player, but he is just arrogant.
‘You get paid a lot of money at Man United to kick the ball into the net, so just do it.
‘I said: ‘Do your job, and give me the ball, give Ronaldo the ball. Stop standing there messing about.’ Rio is a top lad but he sometimes did forget he was a defender.’
