Rooney targets Arsenal revenge

WAYNE ROONEY was not at Manchester United in 2002 – but he has heard the song often enough to make sure he intends tomorrow to be payback time for Arsenal.

Two seasons before Rooney’s arrival at Old Trafford from Everton, the Gunners turned the famous stadium into their very own Theatre of Dreams, Sylvain Wiltord grabbing the winner to crown Arsene Wenger’s men champions.

Michael Carrick’s late strike at the JJB Stadium last night means United are now just one point away from winning the championship themselves and drawing level with Liverpool’s long-standing record of 18 league titles.
