Wayne Rooney has vowed to do everything he can to help Manchester United upset the Premier League football odds and win the title this season.
The English striker has recently been celebrating the birth of his first child, named Kai Wayne, but is not looking for his new off-the-field responsibilities to affect his performances for the Old Trafford faithful.
Manchester United currently sit in third place in the Premier League, five points behind title front-runners Chelsea following the West London side's 1-0 victory over the Red Devils in the last round of league games.
The team will be looking to put their Premier League title ambitions back on track this coming weekend when they host Everton at Old Trafford and Rooney is not considering asking for a rest from that game.
Rooney admits that United have to “try even harder” following the defeat to their title rivals but he is not looking to preserve energy and will give everything he has to help his side.
"I am sure there will be games when I will have the chance to be rested,” said the English striker.
"I would prefer to play but if the manager decides to rest me, it is his decision."
One player who also aspires to do more to help United’s title charge is goalkeeper Ben Foster.
The England stopper has admitted it is hard to knock Edwin van der Sar out of the number one jersey and he is feeling disheartened with life currently at Old Trafford, although he is not planning on leaving the reigning Premier League champions.
