Rooney Expected Ronaldo but Voted for Drogba

Wayne Rooney has revealed he voted for Chelsea striker Didier Drogba in the PFA Player of the Year awards.The England striker expects team-mate Cristiano Ronaldo to walk away with the award but admits he voted for the Portuguese's likeliest rival.
The leading pair are joined by Cesc Fabregas and Steven Gerrard as well as United team-mates Paul Scholes and Ryan Giggs in the shortlist.
"I think Ronaldo will win it [the main award], but he could win both," Rooney told the Manchester United website. "He's been brilliant all season."I picked Drogba - only because we weren't allowed to pick any of our team-mates. But Drogba has been fantastic this season, as has Cesc Fabregas, who I voted for Young Player of the Year."I hope Ronaldo will win it. If he does, it will be fully deserved."
