Ronaldinho and David Beckham will never forget Wayne Rooney's performance in this match 

Rooney would have costed 300M in today's market what a player he was

The level of this era is phenomenal. Rooney got tackled and stood up right away to pass the ball, playing most of the game with such high energy. Rooney is the reason I love United, and I've never looked back. 🔥🔥🔥

So proud to say I was there..took my dad! He said it was the best night of football he'd ever seen. We always spoke about that match. He sadly passed away a week before Christmas last year 😢❤

That roar and applause from the United fans when Beckham came on, not many ex players who were still playing for another club would get that sort of welcome back ❤

Rooney was an absolute monster, one of my favorite players as a kid.

Darren Fletcher & Park Ji Sung were phenomenal in this match, unreal engine 🔥

Despite all the accolades Rooney received, he's still probably one of the most underrated players in United's history. He could have achieved much more had he not sacrificed part of his play to make way for Ronaldo.

wayne rooney played the 9 position in the 09/10 season. one of only two times he did that for United. He scored 34 goals in 44 appearances.

I am ashamed to say I forgot how dominant and how good United were. Incredible and powerful.

How good was Ronaldinho's first touch. What a player.... even when out of shape, aging and carrying injuries.

The PARTNERSHIP BETWEEN NANI AND ROONEY is Extra ORDINARY 👌🙌

People rightly remember Rooney goals and skills, but his work rate was above everyone, every single game he gave 100% much like Beckham.

I know it wasn't Peak Ronaldinho, but man was still doing his thing. (Baller)

Ji Sung Park. Such a Legend!

crazy how much football has changed. you barely see them taking a fall on purpose but keep on fighting, more risky shots etc.

We will never see a player like Wayne Rooney ever again. Unique

That front 6 is built around Paul scholes, 2 engines fletcher and 3 lungs park as fergie once quoted them to win the ball and get it to scholes , Valencia and Nani fly wingers for scholes to find with his long passing, and Rooney spearheaded the attack with ultimate running of the channels and changed football with his pressing abilities. Scholes is actually underrated if you think of the players on the pitch and he can control the game and make that front 6 do what he wants from them.

That 09 10 season from Rooney right after CR7 left to Real Madrid was absolutely phenomenal. I remember him being in the headlines for 80% of Uniteds games week in week out. His best individual season and most on form he ever was throughout his career. Underrated player Rooney

These years were the best for football, such amazing players on both teams.

I’m on my knees praying that we reach back to this levels or even better

Rooney was a monster. How we could use one like him now.

Rooney was the spirit of Man Utd personified. Played on the left, in the middle solo and with a partner, and everywhere in midfield. No matter what, if he was on the pitch, you got 100% no excuses. Truly exceptional player. I think England's best.

Beckham showing his class, what a volley. Put in some lovely crosses too. Milan had a retirement home at this point in time but wow what a treat it must have been to see all these stars on a weekly basis.

To me Rooney will remain the greatest player we have ever had at United.

Any TRUE football fan will forever hold a place in their heart for Rooney AND Ronaldinho(Sorry Becks but levels) - 2 opposite sides of a coin. One who brought joy to football with a childlike brazilian flamboyance, style and smile... The other brought joy with an adult like determination, heart and ability. As fans whatever we 'prefer' doesnt mean we shouldn't appreciate all styles of play!

Always loved Rooney, he had it all along the the desire never to lose. Bloody fantastic player

Rooney, Carrick and Irwin most underrated players in the 30+ years I have followed united. Park was never underrated by united fans we knew he was a game changer and the rest I.e. Scholes, Beckham, Keane you could go on for years. Everyone knew their worth but forgot the grafters

I'll never forget Rooney what a striker 🎉⚽️ I remember this night like it was yesterday. Under Ferguson United were great 👍 More than 2 decades of incredible football!

That pass from Nani for his second😍

Ronaldinho had so much talent and just pure skill. Every Milan play started with him despite the fact that he looks incredibly out of shape. If he hadn’t partied so hard in his prime who knows how good he could’ve been.

Damn! As a fan now, I took these days for granted. How I wish we could have those days again😢

Watching these Vintage Manchester United team gives me so much happiness

This was my first United game, applied and got the ticket, then flew over from Canada.

Park was a beast. Had an engine like a neuclear submarine.

Rooney this man is so underrated...he sacrificed his position so many times.... for me he's the greatest ever to ever do it for Manutd

Wayne Rooney is the best English player of all time.

The way we lost to Bayern in the next leg, still haunts me. We were practically through to the semis...

Rooney work rate was insane

On a side note, Ronaldinho was playing alone and second Nani will forever be extremely underrated, he was always compared to Cr7 and that's just not fair, Nani was world class dude had everything.

I remember this match. I remember that green red shoes. I remember Park Ji Sung run tirelessly like fuckin zombie bull covering the field, pressing Pirlo and anyone near the box. It was all about mentality > skill. What a great time as football fans.

I'm so glad I got to see Rooney in his pomp. Best player ever

Rooney did it all, beast of a player will go down as an absolute legend & hopefully it won't be long before Old Trafford is singing Rooney Rooney Rooney all over again with his son Kai

Them tuesday nights on ITV with Clive Tyldesley commentating😍😍

Imagine if Rooney put the effort in to his health and body that Ronaldo has. He might still be banging in 20 a season to this day!

People forget how good Gary nev always professional great right back

That ball from nani though for the 2nd 🔥🔥

The quality of Nani's pass for the second goal was amazing

Those were the Golden days of Football and I missed it.

What a game this was. It’s a testament to United that they won by such a large margin because Milan had so many chances. This United defence was a brick wall. Even with an ageing Gary Neville at right back. The last great Manchester United team.

Saw him last summer in Avignon. flew on the plane with him. he took the middle seat - in coach, between his mates. Very gracious man.

Oh how I miss the United of that era - the passion, the togetherness, the quality, the panache... Things have been hard for us since 2013 and it does not seem to get any better.

Peak Rooney was a joy to watch!

10:16 Another iconic Berbatov first touch

Those Ronaldinho passes is just insane

At that time, Manchester United had players who wanted to play and willing to work their ass off for the team, the manager and the fans!

Wayne Rooney showed the 2 how it's done! 😎🔥

11 wonders of Alex Ferguson beating the mighty Milan comprises of Inzaghi, Beckham, Ronaldinho, Pirlo etc with a team of Fletcha, Gibson, Park.. Just Amazing.

R10, Pirlo, Seedorf, Beckham, Ambrosini, what a midfield… miss those days

These professionals are so good which makes so crazy how Messi and Ronaldo make it look easy

I don’t think the United fans would have minded that Beckham volley bulging the net. Absolutely stunning strike.

Amazing Ronaldinho ❤

When I hear Man U fans hope for titles with the current team I always want to remind them how champions play like. Our best player right now cannot do that run by Nani to provide the second goal. Breaking at such speed and pushing a pass, and Rooney's timing within razor blade margins is the difference between good teams and super good teams.

Good era that. So many great players with character. Had a great tempo to it this game. Bet it was great to be at. At least I caught it on tv 🙌🏻

This was the best night I ever had at old Trafford The reception to David Beckham was amazing! The tv cameras really don’t capture the atmosphere

At 6.09 : "Protest against the glazer regime" Still there...😢

Rooney was very underrated in the history of United. The guy was a complete beast! Best, Cantona, Beckham, Ronaldo, etc. Rooney is definitely on that list!

Im getting emotional the moment I saw a fans holding a board "Welcome back home Beckham"😢

My all time favorite player...Wayne Rooooooneeeeeyyyyyy

4:48 what a pass by Nani for the Rooney goal

The eagerness, togetherness, fighting spirit, leadership quality,is far superior to our current team

That touch from berbatov at the end hahaha

6:43 Ji Sung Park!!!🇰🇷🇰🇷

The season Rooney proved he can play 9.

I was born in 1990. Mid nineties Ajax was the best club of the world. I have a brother who is about 7 years older. He infected me with the Ajax and it’s part of us ever since. When Dennis Bergkamp joined Arsenal he became Arsenal fan as well straight away. I remember when our grandmother gave us our first console. It was a Nintendo. The one where you had to put the game in from above. I couldn’t really compete with my older brother but he always wanted to play with Arsenal. I needed a competitive team as well and he advices me to pick Man United. The first name I remember is Marc Hughes and I never stopped following the club. It’s so painful to see that a club with a history like that and a fighting DNA that always was so recognizably never survived the greatness of Sir Alex. Wayne Rooney give me so much warm memories. As a fan, if I’m allowed to consider myself as such at least. But also in so many years of playing FIFA on the PlayStation. The development of a hard working kid becoming world class was a joy to follow. Well, I know you don’t give a shit about my melancholic story but for me it’s great to look back sometimes. Hope the red flag will flying high again someday. Glory Man United.

Ji sung park though...didnt get the credit he deserves, hes work rate was out of this world.

I pity those who do not know the beast rooney was in this era

park was always untidy on the ball but very effective....

Always rated Park very highly. Ran his socks off.... Respect

The names on this pitch are just stellar. You don’t even need to go past the keepers who are 2 of the best all-time.

Love it when Beckham warming up at 5:43 also added in to the highlights of the game

If you never watch this team you misses alot

Missing player like rooney now 😌

Rafael what a cross for that 4th goal. Been lacking a right-back that can cross like that for years since he left.

I pity those who can’t remember how good Rooney really was. They say his career was a failure…that’s one hell of a failure! Wonderful player to watch and one of the top 3 or 4 players England has ever produced.

5:55 Little did we know...

Ronney best player in the word ❤

Still waiting for Wayne Rooney replacement at Old Trafford

Lol I forgot Beckham played in Milan. Ronaldinho could've gone down as the greatest player ever had he decided to imo. He was that good! Rooney was awesome in his prime.

Bald Rooney was something else. Man scored like 100 headed goals this season. Absolute beast

Today is 23/11/2023 I nearly shear tears 😢😢😢 when watching this highlight.United now a days is not like United before

What a crazy on goal shot from Beckham...

I like and watched the video just because of Wayne Rooney. As he's my favorite United player, eventhough he didn't play anymore.

The touch from Berbatov after the final whistle😮

The good old days

Can only imagine what this team could have achieved if Ferguson had invested in some key areas. If he had deepened squad depth.

Van der sar and man u defense were solid. Rooney was incredible

Fletcher's celebration is heavenly

how i miss the way man utd used to play exciting football.😢

I thought Nani was tops, great pass to roons and such an exquisite dink past the keeper. a great utd team respect from a baggie. x

I was at this game its the first time iv seen it again unbelievable
