Rooney's Man United career may be ending but his legacy is intact

This is a modal window.

Wayne Rooney establishes his desire to remain at Man United, despite a much more limited role at the club under Mourinho.

Wayne Rooney didn't have a bad game during Manchester United's 0-0 draw at Southampton on Wednesday night. He provided some of the brighter moments in a game that meant little; flicking the ball goalbound toward Henrikh Mkhitaryan after 11 minutes, then beautifully cushioning a high ball before setting up Anthony Martial, who shot wide, two minutes later.

Rooney broke with Mkhitaryan after 63 minutes, then built another attack with Juan Mata after 65.
