Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho admits last weekend "didn't go well" for England captain Wayne Rooney, but his manager says that chapter is closed for the fit-again forward.

"Over the last two or three days, nothing happened," Mourinho said on the eve of his side's game against Arsenal. "He trained like everybody else, he wants to play like everybody else. He is ready.

"What happened in the national team, happened in the national team. I don't comment.

"My players when they go to the national team, they belong to the national team. What happens there for good, for bad. I don't interfere and I don't like to comment.

"Sometimes they come back stronger than when they left us, because something good happened there, something positive for them, good performances, good results.

"Other times injuries, sometimes big injures, other times frustrations because they didn't play, because the result was bad.

"In this case, we know what didn't go well. But national team is a different chapter and a chapter that is closed now until I think March or the end of February."
