Manchester United ace Rooney enjoying partnership with Welbeck

Manchester United striker Wayne Rooney is enjoying playing alongside Danny Welbeck.

Rooney reckons Welbeck’s work-rate up front gives him crucial time and space on the ball.

"Yeah, it’s been good," Rooney said of Welbeck. "He brings a lot of energy to the team; he works very hard and always has defenders on the back foot which is great for me as it gives me space to get on the ball.

"He’s always a threat in the box as well, he’s quick and a difficult player to play against.

"I always try to help the young lads and I speak to Danny in particular a lot. He’s still young and sometimes the younger players need that guidance in games or in training to get the best out of them.

"Danny’s been brilliant for us and has spent a lot of time working on his finishing which has paid off. I think he’ll become a great player, not just for United but for England as well."
