Bilbao's Iraizoz identifies Hernandez, Rooney as Man Utd threats

Athletic Bilbao goalkeeper Gorka Iraizoz has identified Manchester United's danger men for tonight's Europa League return leg.

The Spanish club host the reigning English champions in the second leg of the Round of 16 after last week's 3-2 win at Old Trafford but Iraizoz is well aware that Sir Alex Ferguson's side poses a couple of definite threats.

"Any United player in attack will be dangerous, although everyone assumes Wayne Rooney is the main danger but we have watched matches and the Mexican 'Chicharito' is deadly in these situations, and we must stop him," he told Sky Sports.
