Former Manchester United defender Viv Anderson has hailed Wayne Rooney as one of the finest players in club's history ahead of the derby game away at the Etihad stadium on Sunday.
Rooney believes he is feeling the benefits of "more intense" training at United under David Moyes. Having worked with the Scot before at Everton, Rooney is familiar with his methods and feels they are bringing out the best in his game. "The training is a bit different under the new manager," said Rooney. "I remember it from Everton. It's more intense. That's helping me. I'm glad to be out playing. "He's a great manager and thoroughly deserves this job because of what he did at Everton. It's good to work under him and, hopefully, be successful together."
