FABIO Capello does not care if Wayne Rooney is under pressure to wear the Ronaldo goals crown at Old Trafford - so long as he delivers for England. Capello has brought the best out of Rooney at international level - the United hitman has 10 goals in his last eight games - and the Italian wants that streak to continue in Saturday's friendly against Slovenia and the World Cup qualifier against Croatia. The United ace suffered a freak training-ground injury and missed the clash against Slaven Bilic's men almost two years ago, when defeat led to failure to qualify for Euro 2008. Capello says Roo has played a big part in England's improvement. He said: "Rooney is an important player, he's incredible and young - he can improve a lot with more experience and confidence in himself." Where does Rooney rank alongside the United greats? Have your say.
