Who were the midfielders for England in that competition please? Who partnered Dele?

Dier, Rooney and Ali.

In their last match, I think the setting changed. I think it was Herdenson who came on for Dier.

So how can you say Ali was asked to play furthest when Rooney is in that team? That he was finding his way up there to make things happen does not mean he was asked to play furthest. His finding himself up there was creating holes in the midfield

elampiro, however you look at it, sailorxy was spot on correct.

The truth is, Rooney has no use, no reason to be in the starting lineup. He adds nothing to our play, he's taking up useful space in the team.

If Mourinho won't play a 3-man midfield where does well, then he should bench Rooney and free up the number 10 position for Pogba, Micki,et al.




Simple.

Rooney is the most important player for us.

How can you say someone with one goal, two quality Assists is useless?

I will assume you didn't follow England matches from the friendlies. If England were to play a man behind the striker, it was Ali. If England were to play a two man midfield, it was Dier and Rooney. Right from the match against Russia, Rooney sat deep with Dier, even going to help his defenders, but Ali was almost always close to Kane and Lalana.

But at the end Rooney still had more shots on target than his forwards. He threatened the keepers most with quality attempts.

He misplaced a pass as the last man or in the box? When a striker misplaced a pass, defenders and midfielders should defend it.

That has nothing to do with the shocking performance of Mkhitaryan. I have not seen anything like that before.

Mkhitaryan had a bad day in the first competitive match he is starting for us, and already you want to crucify him? Even comparing him with Rooney who has been serving us sh!t for more than 5years?

Do you know Fellaini was asked to play furthest of the 3 midfielders? And that was why balls were being looped into the sky at every given opportunity. Pogba was poor in decision making though as he always wanted to make things happen by himself but most times he was too deep for that

And this is Rooney’s fault?

This again shows Rooney is not the one hindering Pogba from playing behind the striker directly.

I don't understand United fans. Rooney is one of the best all round player in the team. He is not perfect but niggas should stop comparing him with Mkhi or Mata.
Dude's work rate alone is a motivation. E is like the glue that makes the team a unit. Take Rooney out of the first 11, and watch your team struggle and collapse.

I have no problem with Mkhitaryan. We have to give him time. But that performance sha... I actually boasted about him, and someone gave me a call from when he was playing badly.

Rooney was good for us in 2011/2012, 2012/2013 and 2013/2014. He was still our top scorer in 2013/2014 and 2014/2015. He was the only one who appeared to click with Di Maria

He still helped us to win FA cup last season with his control of midfield.

I don't think I mentioned Rooney in that post. Rooney was shipped to the wings when Herrera came in. Fellaini went furthest of the three midfielders but by then the only thing Jose could think of was to hoof the ball into the air.

Fallacy! Big fallacy!




The current Rooney is the most useless player we currently have. A waste of space for a number 10.



Yes! I said it.

1 goal, 2 Assists in four games, he is useless. This is why you are not a coach, of even a Kindergarten school team.

Yea his energy is amazing but end product is shit. He can't be in that position and average less than 1 key pass. It's a waste of space and energy.

When you play with poo players around you, you win nothing. Love, Jackson, Fletcher, Falcao, Blackette, and 3-5-2 experiement wouldn't have won anyone anything.

He has 2.5 key pass per game. Under a new manager with things just shaping up.

Pogba, Martial and Fellaini are the next with 1.3 key pass per game (each)

They were talking about efficiency, end product.

Rooney's performance has been good this season. Was it not Rooney whose marvelous run got us 3 points at Hull? He was involved in everything positive in the weekend? Carrying the ball forward through the middle?
