Wayne Rooney: Goals will come, I know how to play as a lone striker

Wayne Rooney has told manager Louis van Gaal he can still rely on him to deliver the goals for Manchester United this season despite a poor start.

Van Gaal has decided against signing a striker in the transfer window so far because he believes Rooney can score at least 20 goals for the club. Despite letting Robin van Persie and Radamel Falcao leave over the summer, the United boss is determined to stick with Rooney, Javier Hernandez and James Wilson as his three main strikers.

And despite the recent criticism of his performances, the United captain is sure he will not let his manager down this year.
