it's very sad to hear people talk this way about rooney.

who gives a fuck if he doesnt score as much as ruud.
this guy gives 101% everytime he plays for us, in doing so he's had horrific injuries and guess what? each time he returns, he plays with the same passion, hunger and never ending desire.
When he broke his foot before the world cup, we were 3-0 down at chelsea, yet he still had the will and desire to try and rescue the game, with the belief that "we never give up". name another united player that does that... none! (not even ronaldo)

Fine. he may not be the best finisher, but FFS his abilty to read and dictate the pace of our game IMO is second only to scholesy.

People said the same thing about him last season, shifting the praise over to ronaldo (deservedly so), but come on they had the same amount of goals, and almost the same assissts.


This season, the best comparison would be drogba. they've both been in and out, and in total rooney's had 13 goals and 8 assissts(highest united player), to drogba 10 goals and little or no assists. how come no one is calling for drogba's balls?


Get off his dick, he's trying his best to get sharp, and reading these unfair comments certainly wont help him!
