When you have someone as good as rooney you cant be saying the team is benefiting overall when he's not being used properly imo.
No one would say aye zidane's been sacrificed for the team...its a nonsense. He's at his best as good as anything we've got. But ronnie is on a different level these days due to our mis use of him.

Effectively you can, if Rooney's misuse has in some part lead to Ronaldo be able to play off him and score 40 goals. The team has then benefitted.
The ideal scenario would be Rooney playing off Saha but for large parts of last season that was not possible.
