Rooney "Maddly waiting for UEFA Knockout"


Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney is curious to travel to Italy on February 16 to take on Euorpian AC Milan in the last 16 of the UEFA Champions League.

The Red Devils have been paired with the seven-time European champions and the English people are waiting to watch the real battle again between these two unbeatable clubs.

“Playing at San Siro is always special,” Rooney told La Gazzetta dello Sport newspaper.

“Milan are a really great side. But we are aware of our worth and are equipped to win. Then again, it is a difficult tournament where details play a big role.”

But Manchester United should not under estimate the A.C Milan as they defeat them 2 years back, Histroy can repeat it self so good preparation and hard work is the only tool to win the war.

Ronaldinho is back to his best form and David Beckham is itching to face his former side, but Rooney warns to keep a closer eye on Clarence Seedorf.

“He is probably the strongest player I have ever faced,” he admitted.

“You can’t keep him out, because I have rarely seen someone else do what he does.

“Ronaldinho is incredible and a fantastic talent. David is a champion who made United’s history. It will be exciting to play against him.”
