Shop by player - Wayne Rooney

Wayne Rooney made his Manchester United debut on 28th September 2004 in a 6–2 Champions League group stage win over Fenerbahçe, scoring a hat-trick along with an assist. However, his first season at Old Trafford ended trophy less as Manchester United could only manage a third place finish in the league (having been champions or runners-up on all but two previous occasions since 1992) and failed to progress to the last eight of the UEFA Champions League. Manchester United had more success in the cup competitions, but were edged out of the League Cup in the semi finals by a Chelsea side who also won the Premier League title that season, and a goalless draw with Arsenal in the FA Cup final was followed by a penalty shoot-out defeat. However, Wayne Rooney was Manchester United's top league scorer that season with 11 goals, and was credited with the PFA Young Player of the Year award.
