As Wayne Rooney celebrates a decade with the club, the striker claims that Roy Keane was the best passer he played with over this successful period. Rooney has been fortunate to play in the same Manchester United team as some of the greats of the modern era, Ryan Giggs, Cristiano Ronaldo and Paul Scholes among them, yet it was his understanding with Keane that he deemed most fruitful. “With Roy, I knew he was a great footballer but until I played with him didn’t realise how great. His passing was probably the best I’ve played with, in terms of getting it in to the forwards’ feet. “I had associated him with someone who got round the pitch, making tackles, but it was his passing that blew me away.” [Source: The Times]
