Rooney Sounds No To A Holiday
Wayne Rooney has snubbed the chance of a New Year’s break to rediscover his touch. Manchester United boss Alex Ferguson was ready to give the England striker a 10-day rest, after a handful of tired-looking performances. But Roo turned down the offer and was back at the Red Devils’ Carrington training ground yesterday for extra training. Rooney, 21, was the only man who played the full game at Newcastle on New Year’s Day to put in any outdoor work. Then, while the rest of the first-team squad took on the reserves, he did an hour’s shooting practice in a bid to find the answer to his recent barren spell.
