Manchester United's Wayne Rooney helped destroy West Brom at Old Trafford, and then claimed he was in the best form of his career. The wonder kid has now scored eight goals in six games following his strike in the 4-0 win. He also collected two assists as Portugal pair Cristiano Ronaldo and Nani added their names to the score sheet.
"This is possibly the best form of my career," said Rooney.
Following his World Cup qualifying exploits for England, Rooney carried on where he left off, collecting Berbatov's short pass before slotting in a fine solo effort that ended the brave resistance of West Brom. A capacity crowd did not need to look again to see the damage Rooney could cause. And after that Ronaldo, Berbatov and Nani scored to make it 4-0. The best part was Barbatov also scored his goal for United in the league and at Old Trafford.
Sir Alex Ferguson does feel his side are now starting to find their feet after a difficult start to the campaign. And, with Celtic due in the Champions League on Tuesday, he will definitely like Rooney to display the same form.
