That's my boy: Delighted Wayne Rooney holds his son Kai aloft at Old Trafford after Manchester United defeated Stoke City 4-0 todayHe's too young to remember this moment, but one day Kai Rooney is sure to enjoy showing these photos to his envious school friends.
The six-month-old was held aloft on the pitch today as his footballer father Wayne celebrated Man U's 4-0 victory over Stoke.
And while Kai may yet be too young to even kick a ball, he already seems at ease in a packed stadium, laughing away as his father waved to the crowd.

His miniature Manchester United jersey was emblazoned with the word 'Daddy' on the reverse.
Rooney, 24, revealed today that becoming a father has changed his attitude to life.
'It's been a life changing experience,' he told the People.
'Becoming a dad means you have to be a role model for your son and be someone he can look up to.
And he said becoming a father transformed him from a nightclubber into a family man.
He admitted he now enjoys early nights and spending time at home with his son and wife Coleen instead of partying with team-mates.
He said: 'I don't think it has changed me as the person I am but it has just added something different to my life in a great way. It's different and hard work, but a great feeling.
'Now I have someone to look after and I just want to be with Kai and Coleen as much as possible.
'I don't go out clubbing very much any more, maybe only a couple of times a year. I'm now in bed by 10.30pm, it used to be 1am.'
