Manchester City's current state and Pep Guardiola's future formed the focus in this week's episode of The Wayne Rooney Show.
Former Manchester United striker Rooney said: "I think he will be there next year. I think whatever happens, whether they win the league, I think he's brought a lot of players in over the last year so I think he'll want to try and bring them on. If they don't win the league I think his ego will say to him 'I can't finish with not winning the league or anything', depending on the Champions League.
"Some players will want him to leave, it depends on if you're in the team or not. That's the same with any manager. I hope he stays. I think for the Premier League he's brilliant. You want the best managers in the Premier League and he's set a benchmark."
Former Manchester City midfielder Michael Brown offered his take: "I feel if the right replacement that the club feels is going to be able to take over - I don't think anyone wants to take over from him - if the right person is here now, I think it's done and he'll leave at the end of the season. I hope he carries on and does another year but who is the next person? If that is not right I think he has an understanding with the club and might need to do another year."
