Manchester United legend Wayne Rooney has heaped praise on Marcus Rashford following his standout performance for Aston Villa in their dramatic Champions League clash against Paris Saint-Germain.

Rashford, currently on loan from United, played a key role as Villa overturned a two-goal deficit to beat PSG 3-2 at Villa Park on Tuesday night. Despite the win, the Premier League side fell short of a semi-final spot, having lost the first leg 3-1 in Paris, which saw the French giants progress on a 5-4 aggregate.

Rooney, speaking after the game, was full of admiration for Rashford’s display. He described the England international as electric on the night and urged him to bring that same energy back to Old Trafford when his loan spell ends.

“Villa came alive, PSG looked shaken, and Rashford was at the heart of it,” Rooney said. “That was the Rashford we all know—taking players on, showing his skills, creating chances.”

He highlighted Rashford’s awareness and creativity during the match, particularly in setting up key moments that sparked belief among the Villa squad and fans.

Rooney wrapped up his comments by expressing hope that Rashford can rediscover that same form in a United shirt, saying, “If he plays like this at Old Trafford, he’ll be unstoppable.”

Former Arsenal forward Julio Baptista has declared Cristiano Ronaldo as the greatest footballer of all time, placing him ahead of Lionel Messi.

Baptista, who has played alongside top-tier talent, argues that Ronaldo’s career has been more challenging and impressive, making him the rightful GOAT. He believes Ronaldo’s success across multiple leagues and teams sets him apart.

Speaking to FootballItalia, Baptista shared his thoughts, saying, “If I had to choose, I’d consider the fact that Ronaldo’s journey was harder. He was named the world’s best at Manchester United and won the Champions League there, which was no easy feat.”

While Messi has always had top players around him, Baptista points out that Ronaldo has proven himself in various environments, making his achievements even more remarkable.

With Messi at Inter Miami scoring 8 goals and 3 assists in 10 games this season, and Ronaldo netting 32 goals with 4 assists in 35 appearances, Baptista’s admiration for Ronaldo’s diverse career is clear. He believes it’s time for the world to recognize Ronaldo as the true GOAT.
