Rooney turns 23 today
Rooney has scored in his last two visits to Goodison
Park and he is eyeing another three points tomorrow lunchtime. The
striker said: “Going to Everton is something I look forward to at
the beginning of every season.
"I can’t wait for it to come around. It’s the day after
my birthday this year and I’m sure it will be a nice present if I
score and we win. “Most of my family support Everton and they go to
all the games so I’m sure they’ll want a draw with me scoring. I
think that would be a perfect result for my family!
"But I’m looking to try and get the three points for
United. We need to continue our good run of form.” Rooney has
warned United that they will have no easy ride against the Toffees,
who have started the season slowly.
He added: “The Everton fans are always really up for
the game, it’s a great atmosphere. "And me going back there gives
them extra incentive to get behind their team. We know it will be
difficult. "We have to just play our game and hopefully be good
enough to win.”
