Arsenal, Chelsea & Liverpool back United's Rooney.
Written by Patrick | 7th March 2008 | 1 Comment(s)
Wayne Rooney has expressed his love of English football and believes he will never play abroad, instead believing that England's Premier League is the major force and with Liverpool in a commanding position to make it a full house for England in the Champions League Quarter-Finals he may have a valid point.
The England forward is in his third year with Manchester United and, rather than looking to test himself in Serie ‘A' or La Liga later in his career, Rooney insists he is happy at home and believes the Premier League eclipses all domestic competitions.
The 22-year-old said: "The English game has improved so much in the past few seasons. We have proved we have the best league in the world which is why we attract the best players in the world."
Officially Kaka of AC Milan is presently the World's top player, but that of course was down to Milan successful Champions League campaign last season.
This season there is a very good possibility that an English side will lift the trophy with only really Barcelona and maybe Inter Milan, if they turn things around against Liverpool, as serious candidates to prevent that happening.
Whether an English team wins the trophy or not there is a good chance that Cristiano Ronaldo could well win World Footballer of the Year in December, especially if Portugal has a reasonable run at this summer's European Championships.
Arsenal's victory in Milan this week certainly showed everything good that the Premier League has to offer, and Arsene Wenger's pre-match insistence that his team will go on to become ‘great' may not be too wide of the mark.
Officially England sits just two points behind Spain in the Uefa Rankings, but with seven teams still left in European competition as opposed to just two from Spain that could easily be about to change.
Present Uefa Rankings top five:-
1. Spain 73.891
2. England 71.874
3. Italy 59.535
4. France 52.668
5. Germany 47.007
