But 15 goals between them in the 11 games they have started together has put paid to that theory.Rooney admits the pair are not regular communicators because of the fact Tevez speaks little English, leaving them to rely simply on instinct and eye contact."We don't talk to each other very much because we don't speak the same language, but that doesn't matter when you are playing with a great talent like Carlos," explained Rooney. "We do a lot of hard work together on the training pitch, but the understanding between us seems to be very natural anyway."It's all about eye contact. It's just a glance here or a nod there and we instinctively know what the other one is going to do and when and where we want the ball to be played. It's a case of playing the game...

Maradona told El Grafico.?Milan is a team that depends all the time on Kaka but that doesn?t make him the best player in the world.?Rooney returned to action on Monday against Fulham after almost a month on the sidelines through injury.

We need them at the game, as well as in the dressing room together with us. It would be grand to have them here."Source: Sky Sports
