Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney believes he's become more mature in recent years.

As any parent will know, Rooney's life will change beyond all recognition now he has Kai Wayne to look after.

But he accepts he is no longer the same person who first burst onto the Premier League scene as a 16-year-old at Goodison Park.

"The profile has changed me," he said.

"From when I first got into the England team until I was 20 or 21, I was a bit naive. I used to go out and do different things. Obviously, in the end, you realise you can't because there are young kids watching. You have to try and set an example.

"It is something you are aware of and something you need to keep an eye on."
