Rooney started playing at the top at 16. Even if he never played for us again 14 years at the top level is pretty impressive for any player no matter whether you start early or late.

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik (@Rood) was joined by comedian Ali Woods to look back at the best and worst moments of a rollercoaster season with the annual United Hour Awards.
Has Ten Hag been sacked yet? We're not sure and we hope not, but it's looking more likely as the days pass.
Who should replace him and why is it taking so long to make a decision?
He's not bad, is he?
yeah, i think it'll be important that should rashford cool off at some point that people don't forget just how good he is. the kid scores goals pretty much non-stop, and unlike your typical poacher, he is willing to get involved in the build up and takes on defenders. his success is very hard to believe.
Thought I'd put the Belgium game on for a second and saw Fellaini try to swing an elbow at number 8 for Cyprus in a scrap before a throw-in. Back to normality then.
thought he was injured?
No, he traveled with Belgium and was deemed fit to play.
It's just great seeing one of our own doing so well, that's better than buying Pogba for a world record fee.
Damnit, aaaargh!
Ermm, my bad. Should have realised its Marcus Fecking Rashford.Damnit, aaaargh!
I guess we can't afford to miss him playing!
It's embaressing to be a norwegian. Our football is a joke.
Yeah, but your king is a dude and everybody owns a Tesla, so swings and roundabouts.
I thought you were technically, and tactically in so far as in possession, far superior.
Good lord.
Neat in possession and occasionally put someone nice together but largely impotent. After the first 20 minutes England were in complete control and played some really nice stuff, RLC's goal was a lovely crafted goal.
The feck are you on about?
Yeah, it won him 5 premier league titles, 3 league cups, 1 FA cup, 1 champions league, 1 world club cup, the English goal scoring record, and on the verge of the Manchester United goal scoring record. You are right...we don't want Rashford achieving any of these terrible things by playing too much!
For those who haven't seen the second goal.
And all three goals.
cheers.
Highlights of the game.
Rashford post interview.
They weren't clinical, sure, but I can't see how it's so surprising (not your post) to say they were better on the ball. That goal they scored for instance, something we're just not capable of or show enough.
As for us controlling the game, they cut through our lines a bit easily and our possession retention was poor. They just didn't score more because of their impotence.
Anyway, as usual, we're just about the moments at this level. Nice wing play here, a corner/freekick there, and we score. I'd just like to see us try and control the ball a bit more.
Love Rashford but the deflection was hugely significant on that goal. I wouldn't call it amazing.
Belarus are neat and tidy in possession. It is no greater achievement in football than parking the bus.
Im pretty sure players under LVG would have been penalised for delfelcted goals.
Broadly speaking, agree with that. Just not at developmental level, especially when it's consistently yielding the same results and we have the ability to change it, starting with the selection and tactics.
So much media training already. They really suck the personality out of their interviewing techniques.
"Yeah really pleased, hard game the team played well and that's what's important".
