Wayne Rooney admitted it was important that United prevented the need
to get something from their last league match at Hull.
"It was very important to wrap it up now, so we can prepare for
the Champions League final and give the manager the option to rest players.
Hoping to face Spanish giants will be defender Rio Ferdinand, who missed
the match against Arsenal because of a calf injury.
Ferdinand, who is expected to be fit to play in the Rome showpiece,
revealed it was hard to watch from the Old Trafford sidelines.
"I'm not a great watcher of game as it is, and I was devastated
not to be playing. But to win it like this, at home in front of all
our fans is what you dream of.
"There are not many teams who have won three in a row and to be
part of a team that does that is an unbelievable feeling really.
