Back-to-form Rooney sets sights on Wolves
Date published: 04 February 2011
MANCHESTER United will expect nothing less than victory at Wolves tomorrow.
The Reds strengthened their grip at the top of the Premier League with a 3-1 victory over Aston Villa on Tuesday.
Wolves conceded an injury time winner as they went down 1-0 at Bolton - a result which leaves them rooted to the bottom of the table.
Wayne Rooney looks certain to start at Molineux following his two-goal return to scoring form against Villa.
Meanwhile, Gary Neville has confirmed his intention to remain within the United fold for the rest of the season.
The 35–year–old announced his retirement with immediate effect last night, bringing an end to a stellar career that brought him eight Premier League titles, a Champions League triumph and 85 England caps.
Although there had been speculation about a media career with Sky, or a place in United’s backroom team, Neville does not have any concrete plans.
"I am going to stay at the club until the end of the season and do some coaching because I have got my coaching badge to complete," he said. ""But I want to have 12 months to gather my thoughts.”
