Phil Bardsley packs a mean punch.
The Sun have unearthed a video which they claim shows Wayne Rooney getting his lights punched out while by Phil Bardsley, in the United striker’s Chesire home.
The clip shows the duo sparring in Rooney’s kitchen before Bardsley unwinds a vicious haymaker that sends him stumbling backwards and crashing down to the floor in a heap. The clip ends with Rooney lying prone on the ground appearing to be unconscious.
The Sun reported that the incident occurred on 22nd February, during Rooney’s two days off after United’s 2-1 defeat at Swansea the day before.
