you are a goat!
rooney received 50 passes in total. he lost the ball 9 times in possession due to dispossession and lack of ball control or even brain färts.

rooney's passing stats is a different thing entirely. the stats i work with is straight from OPTA, not your dodgy stats pulled out of the arsë of a baboon. how many passes did rooney receive, how many did he give back?


were you not lying through your teeth that rooney played slightly behind mata in the midfield. so he played in the midfield and he refused to make a tackle for full 90 minutes? you are a disgrace.

coogar:
it's not even debatable anymore, wazza is uber-useless.

passing stats
89% - mata
82% - RVP
76% - rooney

mata received 52 passes in total and managed to pass 49 of them accurately to a team mate. it means he was dispossessed 3 times.

RVP received 15 passes in total and was able to pass 14 of them to a team mate. he was caught in possession only once.

rooney received 50 passes, he was only able to pass 41 of those passes. rooney was dispossessed 9 times. fat bästard lost nearly all our good moves with his idïotic football brain & his lack of technique.

di maria made FIFPRO11....

what an achievement!

coogar:
rooney outlived ronaldo then rooney must be better than ronaldo too. you see why many people here think your brain is made of yellow pap?



so being a captain now means what?
a captain that cannot lead his wards to victory. the most overrated player in the universe. his peers were at the ballon d'Or adding glory to their clubs. rooney is probably at home now adding more calories to his obese self.

rooney is our most useless player.

coogar:
this is the most ridiculous claim ever.....
so you think rooney woulda won anything at arsënal if he was there since 2004?

RVP didn't win cos arsenal were wack. henry didn't win anything in 05/06 & 06/07 and he's 100 times better than rooney. arsenal won last season cos they brought in few decent players after RVP left.

yet again, another world class cross from daley blind. a striker with common sense & anticipation would be loitering at the near post to add a simple touch to mata's miscue.

hernandez scored plenty of those goals for us at anfield & stamford bridge(i think last season under moyes). wayne rooney was behind the play and watching like a spectator.

coogar:
RVP & mata had many attempts, rooney had zero.

RVP & mata held up play and provided incisive passes in the game. every final ball from rooney was a faulty pass.

rooney played the last 30 mins of the game as a striker & he registered 0 shots, provided 0 key pass and he made more wrong passes in that period than anyone else on the pitch.

rooney is the problem with the team. he offers nothing creatively or defensively.




ekwe sample, RVP had left the pitch by the time mata had those 3 chances. this is how to know fans who actually watch the game and the ones who heard 3rd hand news from larry izamoje.

rooney was hiding yet again & mata(CM) was our most advanced player in the box.

coogar:
rooney was rubbish!
he was poor in every aspect of the game & when we needed him to lead and take the game by the scruff of the neck, he disappeared from the game & it passed him by. it was mata popping everywhere to take our chances - rooney was neither doing the build up or shooting on target.



they are all on the same line.
rooney played as a striker in the last 30 mins of the game. how many shots did he attempt(let's even ignore shots on target)?

rooney was useless, abeg.
i saw his performance stats and i was enraged. if rooney cannot make attempts against southampton's defence, why is he even starting games for us?

another beautiful cross from daley blind.......

This is wat someone said on dailymail

"So.. If the world cup is that important why are both Brazil´s Centre backs, who took 7 goals from Germany, in FIFPro World XI?" and in i add

Why would a low win the best coach for a tournament that is not highly regarded (according to FIFA selection for awards) as achievement in European football.. why is Simeone not taking that award?

I remember messi n 2010 world cup... FIFA sha

coogar:
they play on the same line. whenever rooney plays rubbish, you quickly offer an excuse that he is too deep to influence the games. what happened when rooney was moved upfront? did he even scare the goalie?



football is fluid.....
you are the one offering stupïd excuses for rooney's performance. was he not in the midfield 4 when he got a brace against newcastle? and it was mata that was ahead of him that was supplying the key passes.

rooney was wack last night - don't offer any cheap excuses for his poor performance. his passes were wack



the pass was wack & it was from rooney. at least VP took a good shot that was blocked. if rooney had treaded the pass diagonally instead of placing it behind VP, he would have gotten a better chance of scoring.

RVP needed an extra touch cos the original pass was slightly behind him. rooney can't make short passes, he's too fat to measure and place short passes. ronaldo will be 30 in 3 weeks time and he's still beasting his peers. rooney at 30 is worse than giggs at 37.

shame!

Ibime:
You musta been watching with your eyes closed. He was personally at fault for 2 goals against PSG, and we lost 3-1 in the next round, so which game did you see him playing well? Against Galatasaray?

And Iniesta going strong enough to finish in FIFPRO11? You must be joking! Iniesta lacks vision or decisiveness, and cannot control games like Xavi. Since Xavi's ankles gave way, Iniesta has been treading water. I'm personally offended that Iniesta was put on the same pedestal as Xavi for many years, even finishing above him in voting for player of the year. Xavi would sit deep, control the game from start to finish, dictate tempo, create 17 assists per season from a deep position whilst Iniesta would be in the attacking midfield, do a few dribbles and some apes would be chanting, then create only 5 assists for the season and some geezers would be calling him the best, when Xavi dey there. SMH.

coogar:
idïocy at his best....



we played 3-1-4-2. the four behind the front 2 included valencia shaw mata and rooney. mata wasn't anymore advanced than rooney in the game - and he played the game of his life even when the formation was tweaked and rooney moved into top striker position. mata wasn't any AM, stop lying.



we are talking about yesterday's game - don't dig up the past. rooney lost us the game was the statement you are trying to rebut. don't bring up games that was played in 1985 that had a different circumstance or personnel in the team.

rooney was uber-useless.



how would RVP score when rooney kept making idiotïc passes all game. everytime we broke, RVP made intelligent runs and rooney the cow offered an idiötic through ball. RVP at least had an attempt that was blocked - rooney did not make a single attempt in 90 mins at old trafford - what a shame!


let's look at rooney's performance.....

exhibit a:

LVG decided to tweak the formation & moved blind to the wingback position, this was a chess move to allow accurate passing from the left channel to the strikers. blind supplied heavenly crosses into the box but what did rooney do with them?

https://giant.gfycat.com/DevotedElaborateDolphin.gif

from the position rooney made the first touch, you would expect a world class player earning £300,000 per week to destroy the defender and make the goalie work. rooney thought otherwise and ran into traffic......and then lost the ball foolishly.

where's the football intelligence?

FIFPRO 11 is a joke!!!

WTF are David Luiz (who embarrassed himself all year) and Iniesta (living off Xavi his whole career, and has failed to carry the Barca midfield since Xavi disappeared) doing on there? They both had poor seasons.

SailorXY:
what's the point playing two strikers when we can't even spot their movements or create even two chances for each per game?

even against minnows like Yeovil, see the way we were struggling to create anything - diagonal passes & keeping useless possession by returning the ball to de Gea! what is exciting about such displays?

Rafael & Shaw are very good full backs & should continue as such. the excuse was that he's forced to play this system because of injuries, what's his problem now?

4-1-4-1 or 4-4-2 diamond was clicking nicely, I'm sure 4-3-3 will do just fine - we must make the UCL so he better drops his arrogance. see how we've wasted multiple opportunities to close the gap @ the top with very winnable games; yet we are falling even more behind

SailorXY:
there's no problem facing him, in fact this is an easy choice to any keen eye who sees Man United games.
the line up today was perfect but the formation was useless & has been too static since van Gaal employed it. the average chances created with this formation is less than three, why exactly is LvG persistent on this 3-5-2?
compare our game to the days 4-4-2 diamond were employed, or even the formation against Chelshit & City. there's no point being arrogant over nothing, LvG should accept this formation doesn't suit his players right now & do the needful.
nobody is saying he's not doing a good job resurrecting the club so far, but the current experiment is not even as pretty as the discarded ones! why is this so hard to see for the coaching crew??

SailorXY:
see how it is affecting Shaw & Rafael, forcibly converting players! is this why we paid £25+m for Shaw?

PietroRico:
I thought u meant deeper in the 352 context.

Odunharry:
elampiro gist me about the match and players performance..

PietroRico:
then what happens to carrick and blind?

This 352 should only be used in desperate times, not when we have everyone fit.

PietroRico:
Everyone's fit and this man has refused to do away with 352. Wth?

And di maria,
I'll revisit his issue at season's end.
