"He is a phenomenal talent and the prospect of him pulling on a United shirt is frightening.

"I don't know many clubs that wouldn't want him in their side. He is an incredible player.

"And if he does become available, Manchester United should do everything in their power to sign him.

"It certainly excites me to think he could be playing at United next season.

"Anyone who has seen him play knows what a talent he is. Nothing seems to worry him."

BTW The Sunday Mirror reckon Fergie will definitely go for Wayne Rooney in a move that 'will rock football'.
