Wayne Rooney notched his 99th goal for Manchester United as the Premier League champions opened up their title defence with victory over Birmingham.
Wayne Rooney stepped out of Christian Ronaldo's enormous shadow to ensure Manchester United began the defence of their premier league title with a 1 - 0 victory over Birmingham.
In Rooney, however, United might now have one of the most influential players in the Barclays Premier League: a player who will relish the chance to step out of Ronaldo's shadow and become the talisman of this team - it was a little surprising he was not given the captain's armband yesterday, the honour instead going to John O'Shea - and guide them to an unprecedented fourth consecutive title.
