The September international break is something that can send shudders down the spine of Watford managers, but Tom Cleverley should be able to rest easy when it comes around this weekend after getting one over his former Man United and England team-mate Wayne Rooney to make it five wins from five this season.

Rooney described himself and Cleverley, who were part of the last United team to win the Premier League, as 'good friends who have been on many holidays together' ahead of the game, yet he saw his side succumb to a 2-0 defeat courtesy of Mileta Rajovic's brace.
