Manchester United striker
Wayne Rooney says the next 12 months could be career defining for
him.
“For me personally, next season could be the season that
transforms me from someone who could be a great player into someone
who is a great player,” Rooney told The Times. “That’s
what I’m hoping. It’s a massive season for the club and for me
personally, with the prize at the end of it being the World Cup.
It’s a season which I want to grab with both hands.
“I want to play in the position where I feel I’m best. A lot of
people think I’m best as a centre forward. I think I can fill the
gap left by Cristiano and Carlos Tévez and I’m sure that, if I can
play in my right position, I will do that.
“To play in a Champions League final and to play week in, week
out for Manchester United is a privilege and it’s something I’m
very lucky to be doing, but I don’t think playing on the wing I can
express myself as much as I like to.”
