Chelsea striker Nicolas Anelka has dismissed Wayne Rooney's claims that Manchester United are the best team in the world.

"They are one of the best teams in the world, but I can't agree they are the best. We will be looking to prove him [Rooney] wrong next season," said Anelka.

"We know Manchester United, we respect them and we know they have good players. He is one of them, but we will do everything to show it's not true. They won two big titles last season and we want to take those off them this season."
