Wayne Rooney produced a master class yesterday to announce he is very
much back in business. He was at the centre of Manchester United’s best
display for some time in the 3-0 win at Newcastle. The season started
horribly for the player — poor against Everton, dropped, then injured.
The star of the show was Robin van Persie and Rooney’s Old Trafford
future was coming under the spotlight. But you cannot keep a player of
this man’s ability down for long. Looking fit again and firing on all
cylinders, he was everywhere at St James’s Park. Helping out his
defence, available for a ball from the back, on a wing to cross the ball
and in behind Van Persie directly through the middle. When he is in
this mood, he still ranks for me among the best in Europe. His touch,
passing and energy made Manchester United tick.
