Rooney looks set to complete his first uninterrupted pre-season with Man United since joining in 2004.
Since making his professional debut for Everton, Rooney's goal-scoring record has improved season after season, until last season he became United's joint leading goal scorer with Ronaldo. He was also the joint leader of assists in the Premiership with Cesc Fabregas (11 assists).
Alex Ferguson has tipped next season to be Rooney's year...
"He just loves football and loves training and he will be a big player next year, believe me,"
"He will have a great season, because he's had a proper pre-season for the first time with us. He will be fine. Nothing bothers Wayne. He is incredible, a very strong character."
"He's exceptional. He gets up and is the first in the training ground every morning,"
"We like the players to come in for breakfast and he is in at 8.45am, the first there. Unbelievable."
So, can Rooney improve even more this season? Any predictions for what his goal tally will be? Can he hit 20 league goals?
