Compared to Giggs its nothing. The current trial Giggs is under is a very bad thingWhat do you think of Rooney's activities off the pitch?

Well I could list several things I didn’t like about him, so could others I am sure, but this is not the thread for this. He 100% deserves to be among the first few inductees.The amount of stick Rooney got in his latter years with us, suprised everything is so positive in here. But i absolutely loved him, one of the most unselfish players to wear the shirt. The level of sacrifice he gave us, playing in every position rather than being an out and out striker, he was so damn good we needed him everywhere.
It's going to be Fowler (Liverpool fans), Wright (Arsenal fans) and Terry (Chelsea fans). Kompany vs Agüero could be either one of them I think.Aguero and Terry are nailed on but the other four places could go to any of them.
DWayne Drooney!Wayne Rooney!
Wayne Rooney!
Damn it. You beat me to it.My favourite player along with Scholes. Absolute legend
Scholes is a certain pick for me.Was formed last year. First two inductees were Alan Shearer and Thierry Henry with Eric Cantona, Roy Keane, David Beckham, Dennis Bergkamp, Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard closing 2021's lot.

All of these nominations for the Hall of Fame and still no Denis Irwin is shocking!Was formed last year. First two inductees were Alan Shearer and Thierry Henry with Eric Cantona, Roy Keane, David Beckham, Dennis Bergkamp, Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard closing 2021's lot.

It isn't purely fan based.It's going to be Fowler (Liverpool fans), Wright (Arsenal fans) and Terry (Chelsea fans). Kompany vs Agüero could be either one of them I think.
The last two slots could end up ours, but Le Tissier/Les Ferdinand could get in if their fans rally, a one-club man and a 6-club man, actually not sure which one is most beneficial here.
Remember it's a fan vote.
Scholes should be picked as the next inductee before them two. It is pretty shocking that he wasn't already picked before Gerrard and Lampard to be honest. I find it ridiculous that a player that never even won the PL was picked before Scholes who won 11 PL titles.Was formed last year.

Deserved. What a legend.
Scholes, Schmeichel, Vidic will be my biased choice. Not sure who should be fourth.Was formed last year. First two inductees were Alan Shearer and Thierry Henry with Eric Cantona, Roy Keane, David Beckham, Dennis Bergkamp, Frank Lampard and Steven Gerrard closing 2021's lot.

He was the best striker in the world between 2009 and 2011 IMO.He could have been the best striker in the world if he didnt shag a granny.
Indeed he was but he could have cemented his place as the best ever by scoring against supermodels, which he was capable of. Not a granny.He was the best striker in the world between 2009 and 2011 IMO.
Why would Denis Irwin be in a PL hall of fame? He was an excellent player for us but he was pretty much a run of the mill fullback. He’s massively over hyped since SAF made his comments on him. I watched him Week in week out and never came away from a single game thinking ‘Denis Irwin wow he was unbelievable today’ .All of these nominations for the Hall of Fame and still no Denis Irwin is shocking!
Should have been one of the first inducted
giggs is shamed at the moment isn’t he, probably won’t happen while he’s a women beater. Let go from Wales etc, hardly going to award him with anything.Giggs is still not in this is he?
Hmm im not sure that was the reason. Unless she sucked the life-force out of him. Which given how Rooney looks you might actually be onto something.He could have been the best striker in the world if he didnt shag a granny.
I agree - that being said it was incredible how he tailored his game: his 2009-10 season, when he suddenly turned into a top-notch header of the ball, was just incredible to witness.I loved watching the young, explosive forward version of Rooney, who ran at defenders and smashed the ball straight into the top corner and who loved going for chipping the keeper.
The all-rounded version that Sir Alex moulded him into was just as good but not as fun to watch. I miss the days when he smashed full volleys in against Boro and particularly Newcastle.
It’s not really.This "hall of fame" stuff is a bit cringe IMO
His top-10 goal compilation will be up there with the very best. Just off the top of my head: screamer against Newcastle; the volley in that same season against Boro; the bicycle against City; the chip over James; his first goal for Everton; his goals from inside his own half (one for United; one for Everton); the freekick against City (we were getting destroyed but what a goal); the one where he and Ronaldo went the length of the pitch; the winner against Milan (always underrated I felt, the way he shot so quickly on the turn.)Thoroughly deserved. He was a great player.
Special mention for the chip on David James, it even brought a wry smile from him as it sailed over his head.
