Wayne Rooney has called on Manchester United's owners to award David Moyes a new contract "as soon as possible" in recognition of the stunning transformation he has overseen at Old Trafford.
The 28-year-old said: "I have been absolutely blown away by his sessions, his tactics and his maturity in the job and I am learning off him every single day.
"When you become an older player you look to see how the manager does certain things and he has been fantastic for myself personally. I am sure the rest of the players would echo what I am saying. I am absolutely delighted he is here and I just hope that there is a lot of movement now in Florida because they have got to get him signed up as soon as possible."
Rooney, who plays at Old Trafford, added: "When players are in this situation with a year to go and you want to keep hold of them so desperately, then the club reacts really quickly and gets it sorted. For me, I think he deserves a very long contract here and he is perfect for this club."
"He has been a revelation," the future United and England captain said. "He keeps tweaking and tinkering with the formation and making little subtle changes to personnel and tactics, and it is coming off from week to week. He is a young coach who has been there and earned the right to be Manchester United manager. From week to week he is helping us improve and get better, and he has been an absolute breath of fresh air to this football club.
"He manages every single player differently, he knows we have different characters in the dressing room and his man-to-man, one-on-one management is the best I have known.
He makes you go out on the pitch feeling a million dollars with confidence and belief, and he is a very confident manager. When you play for Manchester United you have to accept pressure, you have to take it on the chin and perform. But when you have a manager who is making you feel good, but who is also not scared to give you a good one-on-one telling-off as well, then he has the perfect ingredients."
