Ferguson: Rooney will be Man Utd legend. He’s up there with Messi, Kaka
Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson says Wayne Rooney is on the way to becoming the world's best.
Rooney again struck twice for United in last night's 3-0 victory over West Ham United.
Fergie said: "Wayne was excellent. All these headers, he must have watched my video.
"But if he continues to improve at the current rate he will be a complete player, ready to join the distinguished band of United legends.
"There you have the answer to the hole left by Cristiano Ronaldo, a player who has not only improved his scoring rate but seems to have added even more pace to his game - certainly in the way he is running at opponents now.
"He is terrifying them with the kind of form which is putting him up alongside the greats like Ronaldo, Messi and Kaka.
"He's perfectly placed to break the 30 mark this season. Since we got him he has performed well. But this season he has made dramatic progress to a new level."

DaBee Stupid Fool. Result matters most. There r time when we play good footballs but we lost (eg. Chelshit game). We have beaten Milan in their own Den which is remarkable considering the odds given b4 the match and the statistics b4 that, sign of GOOD Omen. On our days we r not scared of anyone but every other teams is scared to death hearing United around the corner. Nevertheless there is only one team of Men United together i.e MAN UNITED
word
Dabee he mentions ronaldo if you read the article, tribal missed him off the headline most likely on purpose, to try and attract a few more clicks due to no ronaldo mentioned
