Wayne Rooney feels the season run-in is bringing out the best in
him.
The 23-year-old has been in fine form in recent weeks despite
finding himself in a different role down the left wing.
With a Champions League final to look forward to in Rome later
this month and a third consecutive title within grasp, Rooney says
it’s vital he and his team-mates keep up the momemtum.
“This is the time of the season when you want to really be at
your best and enjoy your football and I’m doing that at the
moment,” he said.
“We’re in a great position in the league and we’re so close to
making history [by retaining the Champions League].
“We set out at the start of the season to retain both trophies
and hopefully we can do that.
“The final will be a tough game [against Barcelona], but we just
have to concentrate on ourselves and the way we play.
“If we do that and play the way we know we can then I’m sure
we’ll be okay.”
Double chance
