the 'myth' that wayne rooney is world class!!

[Factamondo]

surely over now.......................put him in a struggling side n he is average!

[TBLOCKRANGER]

He looked p****** if you ask me

[OldSchool]

Our biggest mistake, all this "Rooney must play" rubbish. Him and Young were the worst two players, woeful. Got what we deserved I'm afraid.

[W12_Ranger]

Carroll and Defoe would have given more

[QPRDave]

Well i have said before i don't think he is, to me worldclass is messi, maradonna (although a cheat) Pele, Best..... Wayne scores goals some great goals but that is it, to be world class you have to be able to beat players etc

[Factamondo]

he is a school yard bully.can beat us/wigan/fulham up............once a bigger kid gets near him.......nothing!

[scuberry]

Who actually says he is world class ?? oh yeah,dreamed by the media,we did better without him in the side,what are they not seeing ???

[bushcelt1]

agree about defoe but carroll is two-bob.

[QPRDave]

I think Carroll was quite effective, shame defoe never got a chance or ox

[Factamondo]

yes the media sky/talk****** all carry this 'rooney is brilliant' torch...ive never subscribed to this fable!

[Sminky]

Wayne Rooney is far from World Class, last time he did anything of any note for England ... he was 18.

I like him, causes havoc which is more than can be said for Rooney

I dont think the average punter ever has either facto,it's a myth !!!

Not anywhere that league as the ones you name are the best of the best, I think Wayne is 10 leagues down, I would say zidane, moore, kaizer and cruyff are at the top with thise you name mate, below are hagi, van basten, Baggio and stoichkov etc and 3rd tier gazza, Riykard etc

Wayne Rooney not even in top 500 players of all time IMHO
