Original thread http://www.thisisbigbrother.com/foru...d.php?t=248448 The Evidence being his legendary big game performances vs Bayern Munich and last nights epic vs Italy Considering the evidence I think he is even further away from being world class then I thought when the question was originally posted Thoughts???

Easily England's worst player last night. I think others have overshadowed him to such an extent that we need to seriously consider if Rooney fits into the style of play. He is definitely not World class atm

Agreed with Stevie and Leighton being a close 2nd and 3rd respectably. When Jordan Henderson makes you look like Tom Cleverly you really should think about your footballing career sadly for Stevie

For me, last night showed that England have enough similar kind of players to play this system without Rooney. Roy would be very brave to drop him though.

Baines who did an Andre Santos impression all night and Steven 'He can be our Pirlo' Gerrard were worse. Last edited by Ryan57; 17-06-2014 at 06:34 PM. |

It was the same on both sides of the field because until Sterling went out onto the right hand side we had no right midfielder either, but Italy didn't attack down England's right as much as the left, so Baines had much more defending to do compared to Johnson. It was good tactics by Italy to attack down Baines side because that meant Baines didn't get the opportunity to get forward because he was always defending. |

The modern day football fan is so negative, always looking for the negatives in players, always singling out and blaming an individual in a team game.

A team game it is but in most cases individuals win you games and with Wayne he is more likely to win the game for the opposition then his own team

Sorry but I have never rated Wayne Rooney,I don;t see him as world class.
No doubt he has talent and the skill but for me he just rarely delivers in the big games. Having said that, now watch him bang in 4 goals against Uruguay. |

What you have to remember is Rooney is the main and maybe only threat to the opposition and so is usually a marked man. To free him up England need another World class threat to the opposition, I just don't think teams fear the likes of Sturridge and Welbeck, maybe putting Barkley in from the start would give Rooney a bit more space. |

Shag the ball was good but let's be honest with the time he had to do it and the proximity of a defender to him I would expect Ashley to do likewise the real special moment came with Sterling's ball the Wayne
And don't give me any of this rubbish about him marked closely lol. I watch United week in week out and Wayne has not been man marked/marked tightly consistently for 2 years. With England I have genuinely never seen him man marked as he doesn't have the pace or touch to put fear into the opposition simple as

All because it's Rooney... criticise. Telling me if this was Nan Bread for United you'd be criticising? No... You'd be saying it's not his job to run back. Where is your criticism of Nani's pathetic performance for Portugal? Where was your criticism of the world class Ł28 million man Marouane Fellaini last season? The 'Toure destroyer'?

Fellaini doing so well yesterday was a real kick in the teeth for a Man U fan like me who watched him do nothing all last season.
My only hop is that it's added to his price tag so we can sell him for more than 15 million. Getting back to Rooney. He is the only player that other teams & managers always talk about when referring to England. So if he is not world class he is the closest we have to it. If he did not play for United he would not get so much hate. It was the same with Beckham. Steven Gerrard has not been on form but the media gloss over that. The Liverpool-love-in from the press is way over the top. Welbeck played really good Saturday yet got no credit. It's always about Sturridge. |

Again another pointless comment. If you actually watched the games you ould know that Nani does more then his fair share of yards helping the fullback so what's your point BRA. Nani who has had little to know gametime the last 4-5 months in bad game SHOCKER lol facepalm. Is this the same gam his team were 10 men down whilst getting hammered 4-0 with the WPOTY also having a "pathetic performance"??. The fact is if you ask any Portuguese fan about Nani they will tell you he is one of there best performers regularly outperforming Ronnie One bad performance against Toure (was still our best midfielder) does not change him dominating him the last 2-3 years so again pointless from you

I didn't put them in the same sentence as Rooney. You mentioned Ji-Sung Park can track back therefore any player can. I gave three players who wouldn't do that. Again, you jump to your wild conclusions.
So, okay for Nani, who's played in Portugal's last three friendlies, but not competitive games for a while, to put in a stinker... however it's not alright for Rooney, who was fooked up by the world's greatest manager in David Moyes, to put in a bad performance when played out of position? Also, I'm more on about what Nani did prior to Portugal going down to 10 men. Last edited by Ryan57; 18-06-2014 at 09:33 PM. |

Actually, yes, he was fooked up by Fergie. Fergie fooked up his 2010 World Cup due to the over reliance on him.

And the three players who you mentioned give 50-60% THE ATTACKING OUTPUT Fatty gives as I pointed out.
I used Ji as an example as that is the sort of class player Fatty is among (dis-service to Ji tbh as he shows up in big games) so he really has no reason not to help back
