Fergie can’t stop his Roo gushing

Wayne Rooney is on the road to becoming an Old Trafford legend. This is according to Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson, who watched his star striker take his goal tally for the season to 27 with two goals against West Ham on Tuesday. "If Wayne continues to improve at his present rate, he will be a complete player, ready to join the distinguished band of Manchester United legends," commented Fergie after the 2-0 win which took United to within a point of EPL leaders Chelsea. "He is the answer to the hole left by Cristiano Ronaldo, a player who has not only improved his scoring rate, but who has added even more pace to his game, certainly in the way he is running at opponents. He is terrifying them with the kind of form that is fast putting him up there alongside world greats like Ronaldo, Messi and Kaka."
