I saw Rooney wearing jersey number 10 in the weekend's FA match against Villa. I am sure he was number 8 previously. Has he changed his number? And why? Anyone know?

Perhaps you have not watched Manchester United football club in action for a long time. The last time striker Wayne Rooney wears no 8 jersey was last season 2006/2007. But starting from this season, Rooney has taken the no 10 jersey while no 8 belongs to newly acquired Brazilian midfielder Anderson. As some of the greatest players have become legends wearing number 10, Manchester United see enough quality in Rooney to become legends himself. Rooney has revealed his pride at being handed the shirt most famously worn by United legend Denis Law. Hope this info helps
