David Moyes’ two main strikers have scored five goals in the
last two games between them as United have beat Crystal Palace 2-0 and Bayern Leverkusen 4-2
And Rooney, who has three of them, took his tally to 200 goals for United
with a brace against the German side on Tuesday.
Goalkeeper De Gea was impressed with his
performance, telling United
official website: "Not only did he score goals, he played some great
football, worked hard, brought dynamism to the team and played a really great
game.
"It’s good for us that he and Robin score goals. It is
important; they are key players and this year they will combine to great
effect."
Midfielder Michael Carrick felt Rooney was
unstoppable against Leverkusen and believes he has returned to his best. He added: "It was probably
Wayne's best performance that I've seen for a while. It's great to have him in
that form -- he can be untouchable when he’s like that.
"To have Wayne and Robin scoring and assisting is
fantastic. Even if they're maybe not having the best of games they can always
come up with something. I thought they played really well on Tuesday."
United face Manchester City next in the derby at the weekend and
De Gea added: "The victory has boosted our confidence for Sunday."
