Wayne Rooney has named his preferred team between Liverpool and Manchester City to win the League

Rooney played part of his early career on Merseyside as an Evertonian becoming the second youngster player to appear for the club at that time.
His goal scoring streak and havoc caused against Manchester United forced Ferguson to land him at Old Trafford where he won five Premier League titles and a Champions League and became the club's all-time greatest goal scorer.
Liverpool are currently two points clear at the top of the table, but have played a game more than City, but neither are a happy option for Rooney as the former Manchester United star was asked to whether he wanted City or the Reds to win the Premier League this season.
Rooney told talkSPORT: “It’s a great reason to be out the country when those two are going head to head for the title.
“I hope Man City get over the line before Liverpool. I couldn’t bear to see them win it, it would be a nightmare for any Evertonian.
“I remember in 2005 they won the Champions League and they’re still talking about it now so it would be another 10 or 15 years of that if they win the title!”
