Everton boss, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wayne-Rooney-c36736 back in 2002.
The English International, who is considered as one of the best strikers in the country, scored a sensational goal against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arsenal-c38429 back in 2002, after being given an opportunity by Moyes despite being just 16 years of age.
The goal proved to be the turning point of his career, as he then went on a phenomenal run of form. He was signed by Manchester United in 2004 and since then, has remained one of the leading performers for the nineteen times league champions.
The Scott, who is also one of the most respected figures in the EPL, feels that his decision to introduce the then rookie Rooney brought his managerial career in the spot light.
The 49-year old said that Rooney’s emergence also earned respect and praise for Everton, as people started to view the club as the one which produced one of England’s finest players.
“I always say Wayne Rooney helped me as a manager. It got my name out there. For that I’ll always be grateful he was at Everton when I arrived… It helped Everton as well. It drew more attention to them,” he told the reporters.
The striker’s presence in the Red Devils team has become somewhat less prominent, since the arrival of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Robin-van-Persie-c31380, at Old Trafford this summer.
He has often appeared as a second half substitute, and has already been stripped of his status of being the team’s main striker.
Nonetheless, Moyes insisted that Rooney does not need to prove himself in front of anyone.
He stated that the attacker has remained on the top of things over the last 10 years and was confident that he will soon be back to his very best.

Having guided his side to a phenomenal start to the campaign, the Goodison Park chief underscored that his team need to show consistency and overcome any hurdles that come in their way.
“We are going into a period where we will pick up injuries and suspensions. You have to start to change away from your regular team,” he added.
