As much as it was too soon to write off Rooney and Tevez as natural strike partners before they’d even kicked a ball together, it’s probably too early to anoint them as a solid success.
Yet, the man who better knows better than just about everybody else, remains convinced. Say’s Sir Alex about the two:
“Wayne is only 22, Carlos is 23. They are both young players. Hopefully in three or four years time we will see something really special from them”.
It’s exactly their young footballing age and potential that excites me the most. The past few games we’ve seen glimpses of brilliance between them — and they’re only going to improve immeasurably.
Yet will they both be on the pitch together in the Ukraine?
