The former full-back claims that the striker has to alter his playing style so that he can adjust into the Manchester United line-up in his later years, which are yet to come.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/San-Marino-c2998 on Friday, but according to Gary Neville the forward will have to mould his all-out attacking style into something less tiring, as he looks to cement his legacy at Old Trafford.
Ever since arriving in Manchester, Rooney has been one of Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson’s brightest gems, who has managed to provide the spark whenever the Red Devils needed his services.
Starting out as a front-man, the ex-Everton star found a lot of success as he operated as a traditional goal poacher, whose sole http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684 was to find the back of the net regularly.
However, following Javier Hernandez’s and later Robin Van Persie’s arrival, the 26-year-old has dropped further down the pitch and now acts as a vital cog, linking the frontline with the midfield.
His displays have been a testament to his abilities for almost a decade now but with age, Rooney needs to change accordingly and afford his body sufficient resting time.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Gary-Neville-c14447, who worked with the player at the Theatre of Dreams and later in the England set-up, has advised him to alter his current style and prove his worth in the prime of his career.
“At the age of 26 you have to think there is more to come. You can’t get to the age of 26 and think your best years have gone. He has to now challenge himself and that challenge will always exist when you are playing for Manchester United and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749.”
He also cited the examples of Giggs and Scholes, claiming that the duo had been able to adapt to the changes in their body and minimize their efforts on the pitch without effecting their influence.
“At the highest level of football you need to keep reinventing yourself. He has got great examples there of players who have continued to do that in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Paul-Scholes-c29394, players who have adapted their games."
