Don Sepp 'Corleone' Blatter is on a different level.

He wasn't even voted in....All his opponents withdrew.

Only God knows what sort of dirt Sepp has on the elite in FIFA.

295 career goals for where?
na yam?

185 - EPL
19 - FA cup
6 - carling cup/capital one cup
33 - european games(UCL + europa)
4 - others(CWC, etc)

how did you arrive at 295? grin
I included international goals.

Even if we're to remove internstional goals, then we see that Rooney's goal output and Tevez's goal output are very similar over a similar amount of games.

I'm even disregarding the fact that Tevez career totals include goals in argentine and Brazilian leagues, whilst Rooney has been performing non stop in one of the biggest leagues in the world.

It is extremely fraudulent to call Tevez a baller and rooney a fraud than.

tevez has 248 career club goals
rooney has 247 career club goals.

cheesy grin cheesy

and this is tevez that has moved from club to club(many of them mediocre) - someone who has had to acclimatise to different leagues from the plains of south america to europe.

rooney moved 30 miles from merseyside to man utd. he's never had to learn a new language, adapt to a newer league or learn a different culture. it has also taken tevez less games and he has scored more. cheesy

case closed!
Rooney has 295 career goals.

That's Tevez down. List your next striker.

rooney's career is in it's 13th year.......
we should compare it to the career of aguero that is way less? grin

when people run out of things to say, they become sentimental. 170 EPL goals is super-low for an elite forward that has consistently played in a top team for 11 years.
You listed Tevez, Bergkamp etc.

Oya Numbers please. Thank God Tevez and Rioney are around the same age.

List Career total goals!

you blame me & then went on to complete type a whole lot of rubbish.

rooney? top 5 in the EPL? when? how?

if we are talking about EPL since it was established then strikers like.....

•shearer
•henry
•ruud
•drogba
•bergkamp

are all heads & shoulders better than rooney.

in recent times.....
•aguero
•tevez
•RVP
•costa
•suarez

are all better than rooney!

so when exactly was rooney in the top 5 category? he has scored 170EPL goals but he has been scoring them since he was 17. rooney would be 30 in october. it has taken him 13 years to score 170 goals. that's about 15 league goals per season....... that's the level you would expect from benteke, berahino or bony.

ruud scored 95 EPL goals in only 5 seasons. how many do you think he woulda scored in 13 seasons? abeg, if you don't have anything meaningful to say, kindly crawl back to your thread of numpties.....where the population ratio of the rêtards to the intellects is about 30 to 1.
How many of the strikers you listed have a higher CAREER total than Rooney.

Not even EPL now. Career.

How can you compare Rooney with Ameobi? Did you see me compaing Rooney with Welbeck. I mentioned Suarez, Messi, Torres, Ronaldo, Zlatan etc. Those are the people you compare with Rooney. How the fúck do you compare Rooney with Ameobi? huh
You clearly don't even know what your point is.

Rooney's output is not solely down to longetivity else Ameobi should have matched him.

It's not down to 'Hype' because he has outscored every other striker bar Henry who played in his era.

If in this day and age, you think that wages are solely tied to number of goals scored, then I tire for you.

Ameobi? LOL.

Compare Ameobi's playing time with Rooney.
Compare his wages with Rooney

WTF are you talking about? How can you be comparing Ameobi with Rooney? Was Ameobi over-hyped? Ameobi is a well-known flop!! Is Ameobi compared to Ibrahimovic, Messi etc? Rooney earns €300K a week and gives me one away goal? Ain't you ashamed arguing this? huh
Why do you think Rooney earns 300k a week? Because the glazers like his face?

Rooney lasted in Man Utd because of the over-hype!! He's an England son, you can't just sell him. What happened to Casillas? He lost his prowess, Mourinho benched him, but Carlo didn't because he's Madrid favorite son!! Same thing applies to Rooney!!
Ameobi is English and lasted at Newcastle too for over a decade.

What are his numbers? You think it's simply enough to be English to command a starting spot at Manyoo for over a decade?

WTF is wrong with you?!

Sheva overhyped? Because he flopped at Chelshit? He flopped at AC milan too? huh Can Rooney lead the line for Liverfool the way Torres did? Abeg, this is getting funny.
Especially because he flopped at Chelsea. He came with the reputation and the goal tally. What Ronaldo and Messi are doing now in the CL, he was doing with Raul...came to EPL and couldn't even trap the ball.


Nobody worth his salt will doubt that Sheva was overhyped.

Rooney however...

I can't convince you and you can't convince me. So let's agree to disagree. For me, any striker that scores 12 goals in a season playing the same number of games as Rooney for Man Utd is wack!!
You're trying to hide behind faux objectivity and its a sham.

Give me a striker that has lasted as long as Rooney in the top flight and compare their numbers.

Let's start with Shola Ameobi

Rooney is over-hyped!! Rooney took 5, not 2, five whole seasons to get past the 20-goal mark!! Rooney scored just one away goal this season. C'mon!! The lass is an expired good!!
We've seen Overhype.

Sheva, Torres, Santa Cruz, Kezman, Alves, Robinho, Falcao,Carroll,Soldado.

They came with big price tags, and big reputations to flop on the big stage.

I don't see how one could logically class Rooney as being overhyped. The only people Rooney is compared to are Messi/CR7 and Ibra.

The first two are the best that ever did it in the game, Whilst not too long ago Ibra was also labelled a fraud never turning up in Europe.

Those 3 are the best strikers in the world at the minute and nobody can keep up. But hyping Ibra should also come with caution, Rooney would easily score 30 in that French league

Sometime back, i read Goal.com's top 10 best EPL strikers of all time, Rooney was 6th behind Bergkamp. Now take into fact that Rooney has scored more than Bergkamp and has played more games than him. Rooney has been in Man Utd for 11 seasons now and was behind Bergkamp. If Rooney was worth the level people makes him to be, he'd be way above Bergkamp!! But he's not.
I even thought you would mention a decent site. Goal.com is one of the most useless sites on the planet.
And even at that, that list is most likely a subjective piece of nonsense that's not based in fact.

Strikers are judged on Goals...and Only 2 people in the history of the EPL have more goals than Rooney.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Nihilist: 8:14am On May 26, 2015
170 goals in 340 league appearances is a goal every 2 games.

A GOAL EVERY OTHER GAME...since 2004

Some of you fans are just ungrateful idiots.

By all means, yes Rooney has declined. But to say he's overhyped? Overhyped?

You misunderstood me. I mean Rooney will never make top 5 EPL striker of all time for any credible site. I'm not saying for this season only, i meant for all time since EPL inception in 1991 (i stand to be corrected).
3rd highest EPL scorer of ALL TIME won't make top 5 on any credible site?

Rooney is only two goals away from being 2nd highest goal scorer in the EPL of all time, but he won't make top 5 strikers list in the league?

What 'credible' sites are you reading?

This Elampawa guy is shameless arguing this.
Rooney is not among top 5 best EPL strikers of all time neither in the midfield area after 11 seasons and counting. I'm done arguing this Rooney ish, it's getting stale. The truth will keep haunting Elampawa and Rooney, that's all i will say on this issue.
The only person I can blame for this post is Coogar.

No objective footy fan will name his EPL top 5 strikers and leave out Rooney. It's just not possible.

I completely agree that Rooney is not the wrecking ball he once was, but you can't be superman forever.

Someone said Rooney ONLY scored 170 EPL goals. ONLY?

How were we better off when the whites were around? Go and educate yourself and stop talking rubbish. We generated 270 mw at independence courtesy of imported industrial generators that powered a few selected GRAs. There were no power plants at independence. Most Nigerians had not seen a light bulb at independence. There was not a single university at independence. Most of our grandparents were stark illiterates stuck in the village at independence. There was mass malnutrition at independence. Most Nigerians walked around barefoot at independence. Children walked around naked at independence. Cars were only for the super rich at independence. There was not a single expressway in Nigeria at independence. The bicycle was the symbol of affluence at independence. A bush path led to your village at independence, not the nicely tarred road of today. The colonial rulers exported our resources for 63 years and left us with an undeveloped wasteland and bush at independence. We are 10000 times better off today than at independence. You could not live ONE WEEK in 1950s Nigeria. THANK YOUR LUCKY STARS FOR INDEPENDENCE.

You are lucky you've got the white man's education to be aware of the ills plaguing ur society and even know the right way to behave by tryn to correct another Blackman.

I have seen first hand why d white man looks down on us. Some of us are soooo uncultured a little better than animals in behaviour and u wonder "are these humans? ".

In Nigeria I lived in a 4 flat house and a white man was my neighbour we both occupied the ground floor. When the white man moved in, his part of the house was remarkably different in neatness and in style.

Take South Africa for an example, since the whites gave back power to the blacks.(am not saying aparthied is good) The Country is on a downward spin. See Burundi.

Even the not so whites are improving see Dubai.

The difference is that the white man lives life in pursuit of excellence. The Black man lives life in pursuit of immediate gratification. Just like animals they don't plant they just harvest.
In other words, the average white man is neater than a black man no?

I'm not sure whether to laugh at or cry for you. You are pitiable clown.
