Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson is ready to build this season's attack around Wayne Rooney.
He said: "We have to be fairer to Rooney this season. He is such a willing performer that you are tempted to listen to him at times.
"He says he can play centre-half or centre midfield or in goal. This is the individual you are dealing with.
"There is a great saying from the old days 'He can play anywhere'. Rooney thinks he can."
