Wayne Rooney Targets More Goals

Wayne Rooney refuses to talk about transfer rumours surrounding his Manchester United team-mate Cristiano Ronaldo. But instead, he prefers to question himself regarding the Portuguese phenomenal feat to be used as a standard to his own performance for next season.

Rooney, who just had his honeymoon in Las Vegas, said that to repeat let alone do what Ronaldo did last season would be like climbing Mount Everest. It is going to be very, very difficult.

"Cristiano is unbelievable," Rooney said of his Portuguese team mate.

"Playing alongside him makes you work hard. You always want to be the best and I think I can score a few more goals.". Last season Rooney scored 18 goals, he'll have to double more than that if he is to match Ronaldo's incredible 42 goals last term.

Now, let's talk about some more shits...

It has been a nightmarish pre-season for us. After the Real Madrid fiasco, now Carlos Queiroz is said to leave Manchester United for the Portugal job.

I have never been a fan of Carlos, I think he is a mediocre manager, but nevertheless him being the assistant manager have done us good in the last couple of season, regardless the fact that his tactical contribution sometimes are questionable when we play using a defensive 4-5-1 formation in important matches which sometimes fuck us up.

That, and also the fact that he might be the missing piece we need in order to keep Cristiano at Old Trafford. Queiroz is Fergie's trump card to keep him at our club, and with Queiroz' leaving, I really find it difficult to keep Cristiano.

The Portuguese FA representatives are now at Manchester to meet up with Queiroz and they claim that a deal has been made. No official statement from Manchester United yet, but my gut feeling doesn't feel very good....
