Rooney

I know he plays for the filth but you wished he played for us. His all round game is superb, he links up well with Stevie too. I was really impressed with him tonight, excellent performance.

Respect though in terms of how good a footballer he is. He left Everton because they're shite, can you blame him?

Who else is he going to move to, he hates Liverpool so he'd never move to us no matter how much Stevie tries to persuade him to. He's developed so much as a footballer over the last few years.

This should be moved to the general football thread.....sorry!

[Shaggy]

Very good player but overrated because he's English.

Can't stand the guy but he is exactly the kind of player we need to play Kuyt's role.

:handshake:

Tevez have showed that he is a better player and he is an excellent pro compared to Rooney.

Overrated. How many has he scored this season? 3-4?

Ah come on he is a brilliant player. He has scored 10 this season but no one has ever tried to make him out as a prolific goal scorer because he has so much more to his game than just that.

Prem league:

Rooney 6 in 16
Tevez 11 in23

Kuyt and Voronin.......

[Rhys]

he has 70 in 170 for man utd, hardly a shit stat considering his role in the team, cracking player. we can only hope that one of nemeth, pacecho, eccelstone, pourie or dalle valle will come close to him.

He's a fantastic player. Better than Bellamy. :D

Good player, but hysterically overrated by the media..
A lot of his qualities are admirable (effort, drive etc), as much as many of them are derided (petulance, cheating etc).........but in a free-scoring team like Utd's, he doesn't score enough goals and in the end that's what a striker is judged on..
In a lesser team he may score more being the main focus of play, but that doesn't exactly ring true when he's playing for England now does it ?
His goal scoring record is actually quite average for a top-tier striker and no more than that..
Utd do miss him when he doesn't play though, as he certainly makes them look more dangerous, but Ronaldo is obviously more important to them..

I thought he played pretty well last night, but was also pretty wasteful. The over reaction of the BBC, saying he should have been MOM does show the hype.

I think he's overhyped myself - if he was any other nationality he wouldn't get a fifth of the publicity he gets
