"Rooney will end his career as the top goalscorer for England ever...by a considerable margin too. He will also be the top goalscorer ever for the best English club side. And some people say he's the best of a bad bunch. .... " They do say that, and believe it! If only his strike rate was as good as Peter crouch's!! | |||

"Why is he on 330k a week if he aint world class How much is Falcao on for Man utd? And his only got one goal?? Think players like Ronaldo, Messi, Neymar have always produced at the World Cup finals where Rooney has failed to shine takes the shine off his career to date." I think Ronaldo is the best footballer in the world, ever...but he has never shone at the World cup....nor has Neymar yet....or Messi come to think of it | |||

He does have a strike rate that is almost twice as good as rooney's though. Just to be clear, I don't believe either are world class. I do believe that Rooney is amongst the best of a bad lot. | |||

Sorry....youre wrong. Crouch scored 22 goals in 42 games...a strike rate of 0.52 goals per game. Rooney has 46 in 101, a rate of 0.45 goals per game.....that's nothing like double. | |||

Rooney averages 172 minutes per goal. Crouch averages around 92 minutes per goal. Not quite twice as good so you are right. Rooney is world class and an all time great. If I were to pick an all time England squad though Rooney would not be in it. | |||

Rooney is still partly living on the hype of being very good at a young age. | |||

"Until Rooney performs at a World Cup or Euros, he can only be considered average. He is a bottler in the big games. Personally I dont think goals in friendlies should be counted. His record, without the last couple of games below Games Goals Friendlies 36 10 World Cup 11 1 World Cup Qualifier 22 16 European Championship 6 5 European Ch. Qual. 22 9 Other Tournaments 2 2" Apart from the first European campaign 2004 when he had a fantastic competition he has repeatedly failed on the world stage. He is a good player and a fantastic premier league player but world class is something else. I honestly think that the premiership cant produce real world class players from this country at the moment as they're not hungry enough. The vast majority of them think they've made it when they step onto the training pitch with the first team, when that's just the first step. But that's for another thread | |||

"I thought he was very good last night and very fit. I'm a scot and we were well beaten by a good looking team with younger players. As a team you look better and sharper than when you were in the World Cup. England has been blessed with many really good strikers. Greaves, Shearer and Liniker were great but when Rooney is fully tuned up he is a force to be reasoned with. I've seen them all and Charlton although not a striker was exceptional. As Scots we work with very limited resources your teams do have loads of potential. With the right mentality you could win this cup. Jim" I think you left out Stevie Bull when you mentioned the greats | |||

So he is playing for Bayern Munich Real Madrid, Barcelona or even Chelsea, Man city? No he isn't he is captaining a mediocre team! As you say statistics don't lie. | |||

"Lineaker, Charlton, Shearer and Greaves all played in England teams that were better than the teams Rooney has played in, Lineker , Greaves and Shearer were out and out strikers, Rooney covers more of the pitch, and comes looking for the ball. When people talk about the greats of the game, Bobby Charlton will always be mentioned in the top 10 of all time. Is Rooney world class YES Is Rooney one of the world greats NO Oh and I'm not a Man U fan SOTV " I tend to agree with this and my fellow Scot above. This particular team are better than the World Cup squad Wayne Rooney is not a penalty box striker, he is at best an attacking midfielder who has an eye for goal. The Press built him up to be some kinda supergod and then crucified him when his team mates let him down. Football is a team game and yes one or two solo players shine, but they need the rest if the team behind them to show their skills In the international scene Rooney doesn't have that, he is expected to play the striker role where he is uncomfortable. At Man Utd Ferguson knew his strengths and weaknesses and played to them. He built the team around them. The England squad are built on winning every game they play and this mentality is more often than not their downfall. Build a team around the likes of Rooney and Wellbeck and be a more successful unit | |||
