Listen man, I'm a VERY realistic fan, and i watch a LOT of football,
and Rooney IS a VERY good player, but he is OVERRATED.
Werent people like you saying the same thing about Beckham?
Who WAS/IS overrated as the "best player in the world"?!?!
C'mon man, i know u'll defend 'em cause he's English as u are,
but he is SOOOOO overrated. Its not a grudge, its REALITY.
He will DEFINITELY not be as good as they think he will be.
VERY good does NOT equal GREAT. He will NEVER be great |
Oh im ever so sorry i forgot you were an expert football coach or manager. I doubt you have ever had any experience in football outside of being a fan. The lad is only 19, and was 18 in euro 2004 and was scoring for fun, against some of the best defenders in the world. People have never mentioned rooney as being great, but they mention that he has lots of potential, and at manchest united he has every chance of fullfilling that.
Also there is no need to capatilise everyone on your points, weakly dressed as they are, they wont hit home if you caps lock them all.
I dont think he is the best player in thw world, he is only young, and has a long way to go, but no one can doubt his talent, and his hunger to do well, someone once worked out that rooney ran 12 miles atleast in a particular game, (it was something like that).
I never said beckham was the best player in the world, he had talent, and was one of the best crossers in the world, but he let the adverstising get to his head.
I dont think you know much about football at all. |

| i think everyones knowledge about football in this forum is overrated... before you belittle rooney keep in mind he was bought by ferguson... a man who rarely makes mistakes while signing players (except last year where he fuct up royally with chumba wumba and bellion ... fair enough, hes only 20 and the media hype hes getting is more than a player of his age should be getting but hes english so its normal ... with that in mind lets look at spain where a player like raul who hasnt scored a goal since the days of the dinosaurs is getting to play ahead of owen whose banging in goals coming of the bench .. real madrid is my team in spain but i think its far worse to have a player play based on his past reputation rather than be over hyped ... rooneys still a big game player and i think its unfair saying he cant score against ac milan cuz i dont know of many players who can since milan dont let go of the ball for anything and score mostly because of mistakes made by the opposition. tell me how many wins or especially defeats have they had where the score was not 1-0 or 0-1??? |

nah hes not ... ive read his posts from the toronto forums and hes a chilled out guy ... i think the problem is hes from eastern europe and you know how much the rest of europe loves the british;) ... i think in the euro championships teams want to knock out the brits first and concentrate on winning the tournament after that |

I hate the man but I like the player, he must play with glue on his mouth.
There is a lot of more talented guys in UK : Drogba, Henry, etc. |

I really rate Rooney!! Hes a player who not only scores goals, but runs his socks off for the teamhas outstanding vision and can run so well with the ball. Saw that this weekend against Southampton and you do in most games. OK so he was quiet against Milan, but then wasnt Van Nistelrooy as well, whose got something like 36/39 goals in the Champions League. OK, so his main job is to score goals, but then he does more than that at Utd and England where the main strikers are obviously Van N and Owen.
And dont forget his hattrick on his debut in the Champions League.. |
