Rooney played as a deep-lying midfielder against Aston Villa as
Manchester United extended their unbeaten run to seven games at Villa
Park.
The United captain has scored or assisted 94 goals in his
last 100 league games at Old Trafford and he continues to be an
influential figure at the club.
When United were chasing the game
at Villa Park, they switched to a 3-4-3 system with Wayne Rooney in
midfield and the change helped them force an equaliser.
"Against Aston Villa, he (Rooney) was more of a defensive
midfielder," said van Gaal. "He has the ability to run from box to box -
that is also a little bit that he has to feel in the match, to read in
the match that he can do that.
"That is a matter of time and I believe that he can do that."
