Wayne Rooney admits he was disappointed Manchester United sold Cristiano Ronaldo to Real Madrid.

Rooney says he enjoyed playing with the Portuguese.

"It was thrilling and also a learning experience to play alongside him," he said. "[I was] perhaps a little [disappointed when he left]. But I was also quite happy for him too because he had the desire to try something else: 87 goals in 80 games says it all, no?"
