Some of our players did well, some didn't. We conceded two goals before we'd even caught our breath. In the end I was stood there thinking, 'My God, I wish we'd got Rooney.' He's not even near his full potential right now but in three or four years there's every chance he could be the world's No1 player.

clean given goal mix sheet team throw win
It couldn't have been more perfect. For the team to win 2-0, for Shay Given to keep a clean sheet and then to throw Alan's record-breaking goal into the mix -- it was just what we needed.
