After wearing the shirt for 13 years, Wayne Rooney knows a thing or two about Manchester United. The DC United player is optimistic for the future of the Red Devils. In fact, he believes he knows who should lead the club from the managerial position. Rooney explained his thoughts to CNN in an interview: "Ole Gunnar's a fantastic person. I think, the club will have a decision to make at the end of the season, and it'd be nice to see if Ole's going to continue with this form, and get a shot at the job on the payment basis. But if not, if the club go to choose from somewhere else, then I think in my opinion Pochettino would be the right guy."
Rooney then touched on his own future. After a successful campaign in the MLS where he lifted DC United from the bottom of the league standings to the playoffs. scoring 12 goals along the way, he pointed out that he feels he could still return to England. He said: "If I'm being honest, I know quality wise, I can still play in the Premier League. I know that. I've always been a confident person, and so I have high expectations of myself. And yeah, I've come here expecting to do well. And I think there was a surprise from people who have their opinions, which is fair enough, but I never doubted myself at all." After all he has won and the skill level he has shown, who is to doubt him?
