Rooney: Zlatan is one of the best strikers in the game
Galatasaray winger Bruma has revealed that Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho will watch his performance with the Turkish giants in the 2016/17 season.
It was not the cleanest of volleys, and Mourinho barely acknowledged the goal, but it was enough to bounce into the ground and into the top left corner to deceive Fernando Muslera in the Galatasaray goal.
The France worldwide also hailed the impact of new No 9 Zlatan Ibrahimovic who he believes will make a massive difference to United this season.
“Watching, I felt we lacked aggression – in the running, in the passing, we didn’t have the tempo, so that’s what I was trying to create”. Mourinho has been snubbed by a former player he managed at Chelsea. That was Rooney’s plan last spring and he played in the midfield for England, but that went pretty terribly so maybe Rooney has accepted that he’ll have to stay a forward now. We lost a week in China and some of the boys who played today, they trained for two days.
Rashford came off the bench at half-time in Sweden and won the penalty which was scored by captain Wayne Rooney and put United 3-2 up. “But once Jose spoke to me and Didier gave me advice, I knew straight away I wanted to play for him”.
“Zlatan, for the next game, was even more motivated and we were superb with Zlatan the best player on the pitch”. To be in this squad, you have to understand the squad is more important than any individual, the club is more important than all of us.
“And I am happy that out of such a big group we have just Timothy [Fosu-Mensah] and Chris Smalling with little injuries and apart from them, no injuries and everything looks like it’s going well”.
Wearing his United training kit, Schweinsteiger said: “Hi guys, thank you very much for the birthday wishes and the positive comments I received about the national team career, I feel very honoured”.
“There’s a lot of optimism, as that is only our second pre-season game as a full squad”.
“It is very exciting for both fans and players”.
