Asked what he missed most about Pogba, Rooney said: “The bruises. He was one of those players who, when you trained against him, somehow he would just hurt you.
“A knee in your side, bump into you, I don’t think he meant to do it, but it just happened”

“I hope he is going to want to return to United and prove he’s a top-class player. If he is excited to play for us, we’ll be excited to have him back.
“I’m sure he’ll feel there is unfinished business, and it would be a very big statement by the club if they can make it happen.”
