“My best position, and I have always said it, is as a striker, getting into the box,” Rooney told the Daily Telegraph. “And the two seasons I have really done that as a lone striker have been my two best goalscoring seasons. It is where the manager and myself see my best position.
“Hopefully I can get a good run of games and repay the manager and score goals for the team, but it is obviously on me to do that.
"I have no doubts that I can score 20 goals or more again and I am ready to take on that mantle and be the one who gets the goals for this team.
"If I play up there again this season, then I can get the goals. It is where I like and it is where I will play.”
He added: “I have played different roles over the years for United, but you only have to look when I play for England as a striker, I score goals.”
“I hope to score 20 or more goals again this season. If I am playing as a striker, I will be disappointed if I cannot that do that. The last time I really played the full season as a striker was 2011-12. All the other seasons, I have been up front, then in midfield or out wide, so hopefully if I will stay up front. But I don’t think I have sacrificed myself too much over the years."
