United were forced to come from a goal behind against Newcastle on Wednesday night with the England international striker amongst the goals again in the 2-1 win.
"After a bit of a dodgy start we managed to get some football going and thankfully got the goals that gave us the three points," Rooney told MUTV
"We're in a good position at the minute, we just have to keep playing our football, stay focused from now until the end of the season and hopefully we'll be ok."
