Darren Fletcher believes Wayne Rooney remains under appreciated at Manchester United.

Fletcher revealed he thinks the DC United striker is not given the credit he deserves for what he achieved at Old Trafford.

"Wayne was fantastic," he said. "We were two of the youngest in the dressing room and we built up a good relationship early. We had similar backgrounds and we clicked.

"You could tell he was going to go on to be a Manchester United great. The only worry was whether a Real Madrid or someone would come in for him. I don't think he gets the appreciation he deserves. People don't realise how good he was for United."
