"I think the Arsenal fans need to be better. I saw them booing the team off the other day [against Bournemouth]. Arsenal have been brilliant all season and they've hit a little bad run of form. They need to understand how much the fan support means to the players and how much it can help you."
"The players will have put so much work in day in and day out on the training pitch to be in the position they're in now, so when you lose a game and you get booed off, that can affect players. I think for Arsenal to win the league, the Arsenal fans need to play their part."
"Of course they want to win the league and they're desperate to win the league, but I think they need to understand they've got a role to play."
Wayne Rooney emphasizes the importance of fan support for Arsenal as they face challenges in their Premier League title pursuit. Following a recent loss to Manchester City, Rooney notes that the fans' booing can negatively impact players. He urges supporters to recognize their role in motivating the team, especially during tough times. With five games remaining, Rooney believes that positive backing from fans is essential for Arsenal to secure the title, highlighting the psychological effects of fan reactions on player performance.
