## Resource

Wayne Rooney sits down with Paddy Pimblett for a brutally honest chat on football, the UFC and life at the top. Can Liverpool handle the pressure of the Merseyside Derby? Why does Paddy hate Arsenal so much? From Liverpool and Everton to Arsenal and Manchester City, they break down football’s biggest talking points - form, pressure, scouse identity, and what really matters in big games. Wayne’s love of the fight game takes the conversation beyond football, as Paddy opens up on fight camps, setbacks, and his winning mentality - while Wayne reflects on pressure, discipline and performing at the highest level. This episode contains a discussion about mental health and suicide. If you have been affected by any of the issues raised, you can find support via the BBC Action Line: https://bbc.co.uk/actionline/
