Wayne Rooney’s 53 Quickfire Questions

I feel old saying this, but kids today will never appreciate how good this dude was.

[@goatclips2222]

mate he really was unbelievable the man sacrificed his body and legs by pressing every single game till he was exhausted. played injured pretty much every year. without rooney pressing running channels, making opposition players work the full 90 minutes, without him doing that people like ronaldo wouldnt of done nearly as well. Rooney would be every managers wet dream especially in how todays game is played

[@cachedreamer]

@@goatclips2222 Completely agree, same sort of thing we saw with Benzema having to sacrifice a lot of his game to play alongside Ronaldo. I genuinely think that Benzema and Rooney would both have another 100 goals on their career tallies if they hadn't played with Ronaldo. Obviously it goes both ways because you would argue that they wouldn't have the same sort of trophy cabinets, but it's still quite a mad thing to say about one of the best wide players of all-time, usually you'd say the opposite.

@@UserKR13park was a good footballer because he was so selfless where as Rooney was talented enough to not be selfless but chose to help the team there’s a difference he sacrificed part of his legacy for it.

@@daquaviousbingleton9763 so you are basically saying Park wasn’t good enough to be selfish? Messi is the GOAT and is still a team player. Football is a team sport FYI

[@skybluestrings8398]

​@UserKR13 I'm sure he means one of the reasons Park probably got as far as he did and achieved what he did was because he was selfless. Rooney without being disrespectful to Park was on a completely different playing field as far as ability goes but still chose to be selfless for the sake of his team.The Messi statement was off course in my opinion, he's 100% the GOAT but he's not a team player in the same way Rooney is ,for example you wouldn't see Messi chase back and filling in at full back where Rooney would.

[@Reypstraptor4269]

@@daquaviousbingleton9763 A lot of young strikers would throw in a hissy fit and probably leave if the manager asks them to play on the wing to accomodate somebdy else, to make them do much more defensive work so that somebedy like Ronaldo could be free from those duties. Wazza was like if its good for the team its good for me, i think nowadays most are only thinking about themselves and they sign for the club most likely to benefit them.
