Manchester United skipper Wayne Rooney has paid tribute to former manager Sir Alex Ferguson. Rooney has thrived at United since Ferguson's retirement, but insists there's no rift between the pair.
"He was vitally important," Rooney told MUTV in an interview to mark his 10 years at the club. "I'm grateful to him for having the faith to bring me in from Everton.
"I think he's an incredible person and manager, the way you see his desire for the game. He certainly helped me a lot and helped us all.
"At the time I was coming into the squad as a young lad and there were a few other young lads. He brought all that together and made us world (club) champions. I'm very grateful for everything he's done."
