Carlos:

"The best name we can compare Wayne Rooney to is himself. Players must build and create their own identity, not be compared to someone else. Wayne doesn't need to be compared to other players.

"He needs to keep working and learning. He must listen, and he does that. Every day in training he has a fantastic attitude and always likes to learn. He will reach a special position in the football world. In the next eight to ten years his name will go all round the world."

"It's a fantastic league debut for Giuseppe Rossi. He's a young talent and we decided at the start of the season that he should train with the first-team. We are very happy with the progress he has made."
