Michael Carrick and Wayne Rooney spent years alongside each other, representing Manchester United and England as players.
Fans who watched the pair light up the Premier League may feel nostalgia pangs when the duo face off as managers of Championship sides today . Carrick’s Middlesbrough are set to host Birmingham City, who will be led out by Rooney for the first time.

'We'll enjoy the game, we'll obviously stay friends after it, whatever the result is.

He's been away for a while and back over here and heavily involved.
