ALEX FERGUSON reckons Wayne Rooney will complete his best squad
since winning the Treble.

And Fergie has fired a warning to Chelsea and Arsenal
that Manchester United are still very much in the ball game.

The United boss believes he now has the blend of youth and
experience just right — and Rooney, 18, will be the icing on the cake.

Whether they can emulate that Treble-winning team of 1999 is another thing
— but Ferguson has every confidence they will.

He said:

“We are hoping to get an agreement with Everton over Wayne Rooney.

“If we do sign him I will be very happy with the squad we have got here.
  I believe it will be just as strong as we had in 1999.Both squads have
  really good talent, although it is difficult to compare players.

“But what I will have again is four top strikers to choose from.
  It will give us strength and a lot of options.”

Ferguson had the luxury in 1999 of having Andy Cole, Dwight Yorke,
Ole Solskjaer and Teddy Sheringham as his front men.

They helped United to glory in the Premiership, FA Cup and Champions League
in one unforgettable season.

Now Ferguson will have Alan Smith, Ruud van Nistelrooy, fit-again Louis Saha
and most likely Rooney.

The England man took another step towards joining United yesterday
when he put in a transfer request.

He has pleaded with Everton boss David Moyes and chairman Bill Kenwright
to let the deal happen ahead of Tuesday’s deadline.

And Fergie has told his board Rooney could have the same influence as
Old Trafford legend Eric Cantona.

United have a proven track record of getting the very best out of young players
 — and Fergie expects to do the same with Rooney. He added:

“I feel confident about working with any young player who comes here.
  I think we would look forward to working with a talent like him.”

This summer, Fergie has brought in Gabriel Heinze and Smith,
while Darren Fletcher and Cristiano Ronaldo have made big strides.

The United chief said:

“We are much stronger than last year. Younger players like Fletcher and
  Ronaldo have developed well.

“We will also start to see the best of Kleberson and Eric Djemba-Djemba.”

But Ferguson is set to tinker with his team again for today’s trip to
Blackburn.  （我們目前的中場組合幾乎是一週換一個）

Ronaldo will be behind Smith, while Paul Scholes will retreat to central
midfield.

Fergie added:

“We have not won there for three years so it’s going to be tough.”
