The Paul Pogba to Manchester United transfer saga has been among the longest and most high-profile ones this summer. “If he is excited to play for us, we’ll be excited to have him back”, Rooney told the Daily Mail.

“When you make the decision to retire, you stop thinking, but once I chose to stay I started thinking again and it was really centred around bringing energy back into the team by looking at young players”.
“He had great ability, some of the things he could do, and he’s gone up a level since he left us”. I hope he is going to want to return to United and prove he’s a top-class player.
Mourinho, who took over as United manager recently, has asserted that he will reinstall Rooney in his former role as a striker, rather than utilise the England forward as a midfielder – a position he played in during the previous season. He’s a victor – you can tell with the history he’s had at every club, where he’s won trophies and won titles.
“I’m sure he’ll feel there is unfinished business, and it would be a very big statement by the club if they can make it happen”, Rooney said.
“I’m confident with my own qualities so I have to show it over and over again”.
We know that Adidas have been planning all of this Pogba to United promotional stuff for some time now.
“With Paul, we want to dominate midfield”, he said.
The Swede’s goal, an acrobatic effort after just around three minutes, was the highlight of the game.
Rooney also asserted that he sees glimpses of legendary former manager Alex Fergussen in Mourinho, adding that he has been impressed by the training methods of the new United boss.

Up until this point, Adidas are yet to release a video specifically on Man United but one is coming soon – will it be the big moment it’s confirmed? But I believe if you are confident and work hard that you will get chances. Later in the week, United face the defending Premier League champions Leicester City on the 7th at the Wembley Stadium for the F.A. Community Shield.
