CARLO ANCELOTTI has told Wayne Rooney to take a leaf out of John Terry's book and shrug off any abuse from opposition fans.
The Chelsea captain was targeted by the boo-boys last season after stories about his private life emerged.And while Rooney is expected to get a hostile reception at Everton this weekend following his own off-field allegations, Stamford Bridge chief Ancelotti believes he can take it in his stride.
He said: "A player who has this kind of problem has to stay focused on the match, on his behaviour on the pitch.
"If he does that it's not a big problem. When you're on the pitch, you can't think about the behaviour of the fans.
"Everyone knows how John Terry played last year. Maybe it can be a good motivation if the opposing fans are against you.
"Rooney scored in the last England game. I think he reacted very well."
