Wayne Rooney has bemused fans by revealing the unique thing he does every night when he goes to bed.
Rooney, who was part of the punditry team for Everton's huge Premier League win over Liverpool on Wednesday, made the admission while playing FIFA Pro Clubs with streamers Girth N Turf.
'If I'm in bed on my own, I sleep with the hairdryer on,' Rooney said on the Twitch stream. I sleep with the hairdryer on the whole night.
'I have it on cold. On my kids' lives, I sleep with the hairdryer on and it's in the bed right next to me blowing on my head. I've got two fans next to my bed as well.'
His in-game team-mates including Angry Ginge and Pieface were understandably shocked by the revelation, joking that his electricity bill must be through the roof and questioning how he hadn't set his house on fire.

One was also quick to notice the amusing link with his old manager Sir Alex Ferguson, who was famous for dishing out the 'hairdryer treatment'.
The streamer joked: 'that's the f***ing PTSD of Fergie shouting at you'.
Ferguson's dressing-room explosions of rage are the stuff of United legend and Rooney was on the receiving end of his fair share during his nine seasons with the Scot.
Ferguson and Rooney won 12 major trophies together but there were some public clashes along the way with the relationship now branded as 'awkward' and 'non-conversational' by both sides.
Rooney has revealed that his relationship with former Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson was 'never the same' after he handed in a transfer request.
The former England striker asked to leave the Red Devils in October 2010, as he expressed concern over the direction that the club after wanting assurances about their ability to attract the top players in the world.

He ultimately made a U-turn on his decision and would stay at Old Trafford until the end of the 2016-17 season.
Without doubt the most infamous Ferguson 'hairdryer' was the one directed at David Beckham following United's FA Cup exit to Arsenal in 2003.
It was the one that saw a stray boot kicked by the manager in Beckham's direction that struck him above the eye and marked the point of no return in their relationship, with Becks sold to Real Madrid a few months later.
Ferguson recalled what happened in his autobiography, admitting that tempers flared initially because Beckham's work rate had dropped amid 'rumours of a flirtation between Real Madrid and David's camp.'
The manager wrote: 'He was about 12 feet from me. Between us lay a row of boots. David swore. I moved towards him, and as I approached I kicked a boot.
'It hit him right above the eye. Of course he rose to have a go at me and the players stopped him. "Sit down," I said. "You've let your team down. You can argue as much as you like."
'The next day the story was in the press. In public an Alice band highlighted the damage inflicted by the boot. It was in those days that I told the board David had to go.'
