Man Utd takeover LIVE: Avram Glazer to attend Carabao Cup final after recommendation

Wayne Rooney risked angering his Manchester United supporters with his praise for the Glazers.

United fans have regularly protested the Glazers' ownership of the club, but Rooney clearly doesn't feel the same way.

"First of all I think the Glazers have done a fantastic job, they've been at the club for, well, they signed me in 2004, so they've been at the club for 20 years now and I think that 'they always allowed the managers to bring in whatever players they wanted,' Rooney said.

"I think it's clear the fans want change and obviously it looks like the Glazers are open to that change putting the club up for sale and taking the offers they've received, so I hope they get the right people in. And those are the people who are going to try to move the club forward."
