Too bad that in 13 seasons, the over-paid striker only passed the 20-goal margin twice. A shame for a £300K-a-week over-hyped man!!

And no, it's only your imaginary stats that proved that Rooney didn't play in a 4-4-2 formation. The pic Coogar attached spoke otherwise. Even at that, Messi played on the wing this season and still out-scored Suarez. Rooney is a fraud!! He has no excuses!!

sinizia:

And this is the fraud Elampawa is quick to list his total number of goals while shamelessly hiding the fact it took him 13 good season to achieve it.

coogar:


elampiro does not understand football.
at his age, he doesn't know there are different types of centre forwards. you have the target man, poacher, false-9, finisher, etc.

when we had yorke & cole. if there's a long ball from the midfield, it is yorke that would win the first header & direct it towards cole's path. if it were to be this season, elampiro would claim yorke plays in the role cos he was often the target man.



elampawa is a comedian.
see him hyping rooney's 53 passes per 90 mins as if it's a world cup victory. macheda @ 20 years of age also made 53 passes per 90 mins that season.

let's see if he will say macheda also played in the hole to have achieved that.

elampiro:

Do you mean he didnt win? I dont get you. Everyone knows he won it.

Manchester United ought to pay Rooney 500k/week.

Your opta that saw Ozil in hole against Bayern last year, instead of the wing he played? They saw Kagawa in the hole too instead of wing? Ukwu!!!

Zonal Marking is a zillion times more reliable than opta in term of tactics. Whoscored/opta are not a tactics website.

Lastly, I am not from Ekpoma. ITK. Ntor!

As for you, someone in Owo is more knowledgeable than you in football matters. This is not computer game.

Lies. Andy Cole wrote that Manchester United switched from 4-4-2 to 4-5-1 in 2001, and that was why SAF bought Nistelrooy who could play alone.

This is not computer football game ad you are dealing with very learned people.

elampiro:
These are the best striker for last year.

elampiro:
The 2011 FIFA FIFPro World XI consists of the following players:
Goal: Iker Casillas (Spain, Real Madrid);
Defence: Daniel Alves (Brazil, Barcelona), Gerard Piqué (Spain, Barcelona), Sergio Ramos (Spain, Real Madrid), Nemanja Vidic (Serbia, Manchester United);
Midfield: Xabi Alonso (Spain, Real Madrid), Andrés Iniesta (Spain, Barcelona), Xavi (Spain, Barcelona);
Attack: Lionel Messi (Argentina, Barcelona), Cristiano Ronaldo (Portugal, Real Madrid), Wayne Rooney (England, Manchester United).

coogar:


so how's rooney the best striker in 10/11 when you told us here he was in the hole behind javier hernandez and messi was a centre forward for barcelona that year?

messi as a striker won ballon d'or.
ronaldo as a winger came second
rooney came 5th behind xavi & iniesta and at least one of those would be a number-10.

elampawa, why do you always lie?

elampiro:

So where would they have put Rooney in their 4-3-3?

coogar:


why 4-3-3?
why not 4-5-1?

rooney didn't play as a centre forward that year either in the league or in europe. so where did that come from?

messi was the striker for barca that year in europe & in the league. pedro/david villa were wing forwards. so how did you arrive at rooney being the best striker in europe?

so you now agree a player in the hole is a striker when it's convenient for you? i said it before & i will say it again......you are a rogue!

elampiro:

FIFA said the players were judged for both club and country. Are you in planet ape?

Again FIFA uses 4-3-3 AND NOT 4-5-1 . See Falcao.

parrotibaba:
Wayne Rooney is a striker not a midfielder for fцck's sake!!! he has played as a striker for much of his career but he has also played various midfield roles ...






His player profile states dat he is a forward not a midfielder ...How can Rooney play in d hole n score 27 league goals in 2011/2012 season? his highest ever tally ,SAF played d 4-4-2 flat formation during dat season with d exception of a few matches

elampiro:


Cantona profiles states he is a striker.

SAF played 4-4-1-1 Even SAF said he played Rooney behind the striker just as Villa played Young behind.

coogar:


what did rooney achieve in 2011?
are you a daftie? the only reason rooney made that list was united's run in europe. this is why vidic is also there.

so how did rooney become the best striker in europe when he was neither a striker for club nor country?

i have seen more intelligent silverbacks @ chester zoo.

elampiro:


Cantona profiles states he is a striker.

SAF played 4-4-1-1 Even SAF said he played Rooney behind the striker just as Villa played Young behind.

coogar:


the guy is saying you are a liar.
he also remembered where rooney played that season.....as one of the front two.

he was never in the hole.

parrotibaba:
why r u arguing like a tyke? we didn't start watching live matches from 2014 ,SAF played a flat 4-4-2 formation n Wazza was a striker alongside chicharito dat season

elampiro:

He doesnt remember anything. He is deceived by Rooney's fine scoring stats.

parrotibaba See Ramos awarded the best left back. Did he play as a left back?

elampiro:

No your memory failed you because you look at Rooney's goals and say oh he was a striker. Look at the reports by Zonal Marking. They are very clear, reports as at the time, not one written today.

Even Coogar told us Rooney was instructed by SAF to tract Busquet in CL final. Chicha was isolated that night. You people want to see Rooney fails, but he doesnt fail.

parrotibaba:
d stats vs Bolton stated both Hernandez n Wazza as FWs ,my memory didn't fail me. ,yours did

coogar:


he wasn't awarded the best left back - stop arguing like a goat. the voting system only had 4 defenders, 3 midfielders & 3 forwards. there's no best or worst - it's just FIFAXI.

coogar:

stop lying elampiro.
UCL final was 10/11 season. parrotibaba was talking about 11/12 season.

parrotibaba:
d stats vs Bolton stated both Hernandez n Wazza as FWs ,my memory didn't fail me. ,yours did

elampiro:

So Rooney was one of three best forwards? How many people have entered this list? Rooney, Ibrahimovic, Falcao, Messi, Ronaldo. 300k league.
Yori Yori.

If it's 11/12, then the award for 2011 which covered much more 2010/2011 season. Parrotibaba didnt know what he was saying then.

coogar:


exactly - he was one of the best 3 forwards that season. united's run in europe that season and his wondergoal against man city made sure of that & he deserved the award.

but that was 3/4 years ago....this is now!



parrotibaba is saying rooney played in a flat 4-4-2 in 11/12. you are the one putting 10/11 season in the mix to confuse us. rooney had a very mediocre season in the league in 10/11. the first half of that season, rooney was in america going through all sorts of weight programs.

elampiro:


Parrotibaba is free to think whatever he wants. I have asked him to bring stats he said he is using to back. All I know is that United played 4-4-1-1 even SAF said it himself Rooney played BEHIND a striker. Behind is the hole.
