I was only 11 at the time and couldn’t watch it not only due to me being a kid but also the late night kick off times. Remembered it like yesterday how every single kid even both the juniors and seniors along with some of the adults at school were absolutely raving about his Utd/Ucl debut. Rooney from age 18-27 was an absolute freak of nature. A player that more or less isn’t just defined by the goals but also well defined by how he’s any managers’ and players’ dream to play alongside. Insane desire and hunger to win,always putting his team first and giving the balance for other players to shine as well plus incredibly clutch and talented. Of all the modern era English or British players,Rooney absolutely gets into the top 3.

[@derek4177]

Basically he had a great advantage because he was premature and had way more strength in comparison to his age group. But with time that advantage faded away and his body type isn't really made for longevity in soccer, where endurance and other things matter way more. His body type would be perfect for rugby, american football, boxing..............with very high force, strength and power and at the same time a very high intelligence in terms of perceptoin of fast moving physics, like a ball, a fist or whatever.......my english is too bad to elaborate on that. 😂😂

This was after Alex Ferguson left, so I am guessing it was when we had Van Gaal managing.

[@andrewmarsden1970]

Yep. I worry Hojlund is not good enough and never will be.

[@lukecowell1854]

@andrewmarsden1970 I mean rooney got the delivery he needed but he also made his own chances hojlund doesn't get the service he needs we need a whole new team. But rooney was definitely a different beast world class from the start

[@really8930]

No doubting that Rooney was close to world class. His big problem, and what stopped him from getting there, was his undoubted world class love of alcohol.

[@bestfc100]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 World class

[@Winterwood768-yx9kx]

If 18 year old Rooney had not broke his toe early in the Euro 2004 quarter final against Portugal, then England would have won that trophy, with Rooney leading them to victory against Greece in the final.

[@bestfc100]

I agree with you. 100%

[@TheJ607]

Even Bellion looks great here

[@bestfc100]

Yes, Rooney's presence inspired everyone

[@pandadoublexl]

Lmao no he doesn't

[@GavinHitchens]

Disturbingly underrated in any tier lists, he gets talked about sure, but he's always forgotten when it comes to rankings.

[@bestfc100]

True, he's never ranked

[@fegasd]

9:30 He should pass the ball, and bc he did not, nobody knows who he was. Ferguson really had a monster team back then...

[@bestfc100]

Quality and individual brilliance stood out clearly

[@trollMASTER1980]

Back when it was actually enjoyable to watch a united match

[@bestfc100]

Legends everywhere fighting for the badge

[@CasperLD]

Rooney was never a boy. He was always a man.
