‘Potato Face’ can’t sleep without vacuum cleaner on

LONDON: For some it’s a tot of whisky, for others it’s a milky drink, but Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney can’t get off to sleep without the whir of a vacuum cleaner or his girlfriend’s hairdryer. 

“When I’m on my own, I still not only like to have the TV and light on to help me sleep – but also a vacuum cleaner,” the England forward admits in his autobiography “My Story So Far”, serialised in the Mail on Sunday newspaper.
