how's rooney an AM when he scored 4 goals as a CF this season? how's rooney an AM when his best scoring record was as a striker in 09/10 & 10/12?

did cantona ever play as a striker for united?

sinizia:
What do you gain from beating around the bush? Rooney and Eric's comparison is based only at Man Utd, not national team. Stop running away from the truth!! Eric is a god at Man Utd, Rooney's not!!

coogar:
don't mind him....
that's what he does. instead of him to argue objectively how rooney has failed to score more than 1 away league goal since march last year, he's arguing about lampard's goals.



how many games did saha play for united? how many minutes did he play? you would be surprised is 28 goals has a better rate than rooney's.

cantona was an AM.
it's illogical to compare him to rooney who has played a chunk of his games in the CF position. are you not ashamed silva has the same amount of league goals as rooney despite playing in less minutes?

sinizia:
LMAO!! That nigga is grasping at straws. Rooney has never been outstanding. Even in the World Cup, he still sucks!!

that's impossible.
lampard is next to giggs on the all-time assist table. there's no way rooney has assisted more.

chrisley024:
Stop telling me what happened when Berbatov was still in United. We're talking now

sinizia:
Ashamed? If Rooney had Saha's injury he won't even hit the crossbar.

Rooney is not fit enough to tie Cantona's shoelace. You know zilch. How can you compare the King with Rooney? WTF?!!

coogar:
you don't need to insult him to pass your message across. what he meant to say was lampard scored 20+ goals in all competitions for 5 seasons back to back.



how can rooney beat lampard in assists?

sinizia:
Rooney - a World Cup flop!!
Rooney - an Euro flop!!
Nistelrooy, Cantona, Yorke etc, are way above his league. Even a fit Saha outscored him. Shame!!

Saha was a striker for Manchester United. He scored 28 goals in 4 seasons. Something Rooney scored in 2011/2012 alone. Saha highest goals in a season is 8 goals in 24 appearances.

CANTONA NEVER SCORED 20 GOALS. 73 IN 171 APPEARANCES FOR UNITED.


Ukwu!! Arent you shamed now?

sinizia:
In 1997, 1998 etc, was Lampard playing at Chelshit? What are you even arguing about? Have Lampard ever striked for Chelshit like Rooney does? Rooney has scored just one World cup goal!! A striker!! Are you not ashamed comparing both of them? Rooney is a striker, Lampard is midfielder!! It's shameful that you are comparing them. You are comparing Lampard's 2013/2014 and 2014/2015 seasons to Rooney's? How many matches did he play compared to Rooney. I'm done with you. But know this, when Rooney finally retires and legendary strikers are mentioned, he'll at the bottom of the strike chain!! It's been 11 seasons and Rooney HAS NEVER won highest goal scorer, highest assists and has never made the final 3 list of Ballon D'or, something Lampard has achieved. Rooney is over-hyped!!

sinizia:
Lampard assists as midfielder dwarfs that of Rooney's!! He averages 20 EPL goals per season, why has Rooney exceeded the 20-goal mark just TWICE in 11 seasons?

Yet he's not among the top 20 AMs in Europe.

coogar:
RVP won the golden boot in back to back seasons. when rooney was a striker, he won nothing. when rooney was a number-10, he never topped any assist chart.

what exactly is rooney good at?

sinizia:
Kai!! This is annoying!! Look at Rooney stats upon he's been playing for 11 seasons for Man Utd. They make him a striker, Rooney sucks. They said he's winger, he sucked!! They said he's a midfielder and yet he over sucked. Please can someone tell me where Rooney has been outstanding?

sinizia:
In 2011/2012, Rooney scored 27 goals as a defender? Go and sleep please. Rooney outperformed Falcao, what has that got to do with the fact that Rooney is wack striker? How many minutes did Rooney play compared to Falcao? Mind you, Falcao was more prolific than Rooney whilst at Porto and Ath Madrid!! Rooney can never be good like Falcao if he's in Ath Madrid!!

coogar:
rooney is not in the top 20 AMs in europe. which rooney? the same rooney that has the first touch of a rapîst?

see how common david silva completely destroyed in every known stat attached to creativity. the only stat rooney did better was goals scored from penalty.

silva played less minutes & yet he did better than rooney that played more minutes, played half of his games as a striker & even got the bonus of an awoof penalty.

how else should we prove rooney is a liability?

chrisley024:
elampiro prefers CF while you say SS.

Both of you should pls tell us his best position.

sinizia:
Rooney beat RVP in goals because he played more than RVP, Rooney amasses the highest number of playing time in Man Utd, yet Lampard who's not an attacker bests him season after season. Messi played on the wings this season, CR7 plays on the wing every season, but right from 2004/2005 when Rooney has been striking, he's yet to score up to 30 goals. Something that wingers like Cr7 keeps achieving. Give it up, a striker is known for goals and Rooney sucks at it!! Rooney rules at Man Utd no doubt,but compared to striking elites, he sucks!! RVP has won EPL highest scorer twice, where was Rooney then? A fit RVP gave us the EPL, something Rooney can't do.

Neymar will easily outscore Rooney in this current Man Utd squad. Can Rooney spearhead Liverfool's attacks with aplomb like Torres and Suarez did? If Rooney wasn't England's golden boy, he'd have faded away. English press over-hypes him!! Chelsea brought a mere £30 mill when they wanted to buy him. Shameful!!

Rooney has now outperformed Falcao.

Now you guys say common Diouf. Is Dioud better than Falcao, RVP, Wilson, Chicha?

Abeg, if you are starboard resurrected pls shift. Good night finally.

so we finished mid-table this season that rooney played in the central midfield? arsenal finished 4th last season & ramsey scored 20+ goals from the midfield. we finished 4th this season & rooney scored how many goals?

what do you have to say to this stat about rooney?

coogar:
predominantly a central midfielder? from that central midfield, players like aaron ramsey & yaya toure scored 20+ goals per season.

of the 33 games rooney appeared, only 14 of them was in the central midfield. he had 19 games in the forward role & he produced nothing meaningful from that position.

admit it, rooney is wänk!

sinizia:
It took Rooney 4 seasons to reach the 20-goal mark, something that Lampard achieved with relative ease for many seasons. Something that Kane achieved in his first season, same as Costa. Rooney is over-hyped!! Elampiro is just grasping as straws.

sinizia:
Somethings are not worth arguing. Anyone that looks at Rooney's goals return, then compared to how much he's paid and the fact he hardly misses any match and doesn't find that dude as low grade striker, then the person is sentimentally dumb!! It took Rooney 4 seasons to reach the 20-goal mark, something that Lampard achieved with relative ease for many seasons. Something that Kane achieved in his first season, same as Costa. Rooney is over-hyped!! Elampiro is just grasping as straws.

coogar:
rooney
12 goals in 2872 mins
1 goal in every 239 mins

van persie
10 goals in 2111 mins
1 goal in every 211 mins.

van persie still has a better rate of scoring than rooney.

coogar:
that's exactly the point.
xavi has the better football brain than messi & ronaldo put together but he gets ignored cos he doesn't score 300 goals in 280 games. if zidane, nedved, fat ronaldo, etc were around now they wouldn't get near ballon d'or.

football is about goalscoring - messi & ronaldo are the richest footballers in the world. you think it's because they dribble or because they have pace? hell no - it's because scoring hatricks for them is easier than slicing a loaf of bread.

coogar:
so why are messi/ronaldo the best players in the world. if they don't score goals, who would rate them? compare xavi who is 100 times better than zidane and yet he has no ballon d'or to his name because messi/ronaldo wouldn't let anyone near that trophy.



that's the point.....
rooney was 18 then, he had just destroyed the toughest defences in euro 2004 back then & he was by far the most talented teen in europe as at june 2004.

his goal stats @everton didn't matter cos he had done it against some of his best teams in europe. if he didn't break his metatarsal during the competition, england would have gone all the way. he had scored 4 goals in 5 games for england already before his injury.

as a striker, if you are not scoring - you are worthless!

sinizia:
Darkrebel66, i hope you are seeing the Rooney I'm talking about? 1 away goal for one full season. Jesus!! I'm ashamed of my Man Utd. It will never be well with that Moyes. Imagine a Zlatan scoring one away goal, he'll burnt to death. It's a taboo!!

Take a look at Rooney's goals in Man Utd since 2004/2005 and see that lad is over-hyped.
