West Bromwich Albion midfielder Steven Reid fears Wayne Rooney is ready to catch fire for Manchester United tomorrow.
The Irish star, 29, is set to be called into a West Brom defence hit by injury and suspension against unbeaten Manchester United at The Hawthorns.
Reid could slot in at right-back and Rooney may play out left again as he did against Birmingham. And he said: "Maybe Rooney's not hit the heights he did last season but he's a dangerous animal.
"It's only a matter of time that he scores from open play - he's still one of the best players in the world."
