I'd say Rio, Ronaldo and Rooney are our most influential players. In that order.

Part of his job, yes. And I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up with not far off 20 goals by the end of the season. And a shit-load of assists.Which means he has being doing his job pretty fecking well.
And that's before we even mention the fractured metatarsal and the ankle-knack he got playing head tennis.
There's a time and a place for a gripe about the contribution of certain players. I don't think anyone can whinge about Rooney's contribution to our season as a whole.
