Rooney looking forward to Chicharito return

Man Utd striker Wayne Rooney is looking forward to linking up with Mexican striker Javier Hernandez this weekend. Danny Welbeck is sidelined through injury.

  • Gary Neville breaks silence on Ruben Amorim
  • Confirmed Chelsea line-up (4-2-3-1) vs Brentford, Estevao absent

  • Chicharito is expected to partner Rooney up front against Bolton this weekend, and Rooney is relishing the return of his Mexican strike partner.



    "I'm looking forward to him doing the same, if not scoring more goals for us, this season," Rooney told MUTV.



    "Of course people know about him now but, if you look at all the top players around the world, people know how they play and it's still difficult to stop them.



    "His movement is so good it's difficult to defend against. It won't be easy for players to defend against him whether they know about him or not.



    "It's great to have a lad who has just come into the team, who speaks good English and is always smiling."
