Manchester United legend Wayne Rooney has claimed that he was involved in the best-ever goal in Premier League history. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, Robin van Persie’s superb volley against Aston Villa is the greatest goal in EPL history, and the incredible strike during a 3-0 win at Old Trafford was the perfect goal to seal MUFC’s last ever league title in 2013.

Rooney added that the goal was thoroughly worked on in training, and his assist is probably his best pass ever.
His words, “I think, for me, that’s the best goal in Premier League history. We worked on it in training, because I think it was James Collins and I can’t remember the other centre back, but we knew they weren’t the quickest, so I was playing deeper than Robin in midfield, and I said to him, ‘If I get it with time, just run. I’ll find you. Make your run’.
We worked on practising it in training and there was a moment in the game where it comes to me, I’ve taken a touch, I’ve seen him start his run, and I’ve played probably the best pass I’ve ever played, it was perfect to him. He didn’t have to break his stride, and his finish was incredible, his technique, and that was to score his hat-trick. We won the league that day.”
WOW.
Manchester United Football Club, commonly referred to as Man United or simply United, is a professional football club based in Old Trafford, Greater Manchester, England. The club competes in the Premier League, the top division in the English football league system.
Nicknamed the Red Devils, they were founded as Newton Heath LYR Football Club in 1878, but changed their name to Manchester United in 1902. After a spell playing in Clayton, Manchester, the club moved to their current stadium, Old Trafford, in 1910.
Alex Ferguson and his assistant Archie Knox arrived from Aberdeen on the day of Atkinson’s dismissal, and guided the club to an 11th-place finish in the league. Despite a second-place finish in 1987–88, the club was back in 11th place the following season. Reportedly on the verge of being dismissed, Ferguson’s job was saved by victory over Crystal Palace in the 1990 FA Cup final.
The following season, Manchester United claimed their first UEFA Cup Winners’ Cup title. That triumph allowed the club to compete in the European Super Cup for the first time, where United beat European Cup holders Red Star Belgrade 1–0 at Old Trafford. The club appeared in two consecutive League Cup finals in 1991 and 1992 the left and the right, but he’s not got any sense of danger yet, and empties the midfield area too readily.
