Published on: 24 April 2017

Wayne Rooney is targeting victory in the Manchester derby later in the week.

Manchester United make the short trip to the Etihad Stadium to take on Manchester City on Thursday night with fourth place on the Premier League table up for grabs.

After scoring in United's 2-0 win over Burnley on Sunday, United skipper Rooney was immediately focusing his attention on the important clash with local rivals City.

"I think it's a game between two great teams, and it's a massive game for the city as always," he said.

"There's a fight for the top four and us and City are firmly in that fight. We know it's a big game for both teams and we'll be ready.

"There's no better feeling than when you win the derby."
