Wigan Athletic captain Gary Caldwell is ready for his showdown withManchester United aceWayne Rooney this weekend.
The England star scored one of the goals of season, arguably the decade, in last week’s win overManchester City, with many predicting it will put an end to Rooney’s relatively poor run of form.
“We have to prepare as normally as possible ahead of the United game,” Caldwell told the Wigan Evening Post.
“The manager will show us what United are good at, and give us options on how to deal with those things and what we’re going to do as individuals and as a team.
“I think we’ve shown enough this season that anyone coming to the DW won’t fancy it, and hopefully we can produce a good display, get the fans behind us and get a big win.”
On the goal that everybody’s been talking about, Caldwell added: “It was an absolutely fantastic strike.
“The agility and the contact he managed to get on the ball was breathtaking. But they have talented players all over the park, and we’re going to need to deal with them all.
“Whether Rooney can score goals like that every week is another matter – but he’s clearly a real threat when he is on form like that.”
