Rooney: 2008 Man Utd would 'batter' Arsenal's current team

Manchester United legend Wayne Rooney has asserted that the club's 2008 Champions League-winning side would decisively defeat the current Arsenal squad. Rooney, who was part of the last United team to win the European Cup, shared his views during a punditry session.

He engaged in a discussion with former England teammate Theo Walcott, who acknowledged the 2008 United team as the toughest opponent he ever faced. Rooney's immediate response to how that team would fare against today's Arsenal was a confident "We'd batter them."

Rooney, who notably scored 15 goals against Arsenal throughout his career, emphasized the strength of the 2008 United lineup, which included players like Cristiano Ronaldo, Carlos Tevez, and Paul Scholes.
