Ex-Everton striker Campbell: Man Utd's Rooney will prove himself in Brazil

Former Everton striker Kevin Campbell is delighted seeing Manchester United ace Wayne Rooney back to his best.

Campbell wrote in the Daily Star Sunday: "From the day I saw him first-hand breaking through at Everton, it was clear this guy was rather special.

"And his goals record since he announced himself as a 16-year-old star in the making - with that stunner against Arsenal - ends all argument and debate.

"Yet still we hear critics complain Wazza cannot be that good because he has never delivered on the biggest stage of all - at a World Cup finals.

"That's true - at this moment. But I can't wait for Brazil 2014 to start and for my former team-mate to silence the doubters."
