Wayne Rooney says he won’t be happy until he is as good as Lionel Messi | The Sun |Sport|Football: "Manchester United star Rooney faced Messi in May's Champions League final and, while they both scored, it was Barcelona's Argentine master who ran the show in a 3-1 victory.

Now Roo aims to reach a standard where he too can be crowned World Player of the Year and once again bring the Champions League title back to Old Trafford.

He said: 'Messi is a great player and rightly World Player of the Year.

'For every footballer out there, not just me, that's the target you want to try to get to and, hopefully, I can."
