Can't find myself in me to 'hate' the man at all, mildly annoying occasionally but that's it for me. Don't really understand why he's become one of the most hated players in the league. There are plenty out there who are just downright unpleasant on a regular basis whereas he doesn't seem to be.

I don't understand why he plays in a number 10 role. He's a striker for me, always has been.

Because Falcao and RVP are better in that position and he's now the captain so undroppable.

How long does this thing about 'Rooney questioning his own performances' go on for.. As far as I can see, he's 'not performed' for ages now! He's never performed for England at a World Cup. Man Utd were well off the pace last season and the 300k per week they are paying him is nowhere near value for money. In fact, it's scandalous.

i've always been a rooney fan and stuck up for him in england and champions league threads etc but today he was absolutely diabolical. mata must be sitting on the bench wondering why the f uck this chimp is getting game time in mata's preferred position with performances as shocking as that. 

 

ps it was all down to esteban's magic marking though. shadowed him all game.

The bloke is over rated massively, was talented as a youngster, but his ego is bigger than his talent.

He is a good premiership player, but the way the press go on about him is over the top, he is no where near the top 20 players in the world

Totally agree probably one of the most overrated players England have had. For some reason no manager as the balls to drop him. Rooney you know is only three caps away from 100 scandalous i know.

17 league goal last season and 27 two seasons before that is  not a bad return really.

I'm in a minority but I don't get the complete hate towards him. He possibly had some dodgy sexual partners in the past and he doesn't appear to be the most intellectual guy around but he's been a good player for club and country.

 

His post match interview was balanced and fair. As for his salary it isn't really his fault is it? If any of us were offered 300k per week to stay in our job I don't think many on here would turn it down. The players are easy targets in this but if the clubs as whole stayed firm and said 25k is the maximum wage (for eg) then we wouldn't have the obscene salaries paid to players but this isn't ever going to happen.

Spent more time in the ear of the referee today than I got from my first wife in ten years of marriage

 

Didn't shake the hands of all the Leicester players at the end of the game

 

Didn't go over to the United fans at the end of the game

 

Don't agree with booing the England captain but on that display I am not surprised interest in football is heading toward the club and away from the country 

 

Nuff said

 

Yes he did on both counts. He went straight to the ref after the full-time whistle then as he walked to the tunnel he shook a few players' hands. 

 

And he was 1 of only 4 who did go to the Utd fans.

 

And he was a mouthy cvnt today.

Rooney is very average i think, certainly in comparison to other big names in the United team let alone hum being World Class.

 

Actually think he has been a slow decline for years now,  clearly talented but never improved in ten years i would say

Its all a bit hard on him to be honest, He was a good striker, the best weve (england) had for a few years, but because the rest of the England side has been short on talent, the expectation has fall onto him and he is not skillfull and gifted enough to carry that expectation.

 

 

Hes a bit psycho, always has been. But, his reaction after the goal is exactly what (as a supporter) i would like to see, he seemed to care and wanted to win.... we all rave when Kasper does his post goal outbursts,  :thumbup:

 

A good player who has had too many expectations placed on him.

 

but who cares.... Lestoh 5... a small northen club 3   :)

Di Maria is world class united payed $60 million for him Rooney is worth less than $20 IMO and i dont think there would be a que of clubs lining up to sign him like 5 years ago

I used to like him. I liked his aggression when he fought hard for a win. But these days he looks average, sure he runs around a lot, but other than shouting at people he isn't taking the game by the scruff of the neck like he used to.

 

The managers and staff are to blame. I think it is amazing they won't consider dropping him, let alone that they made him captain! He can't be blamed for his salary either, we'd all take it.

Beautiful. I love to see him pissed off. Like a petulant child.

I like the fact Blind is just walking off shaking his head while Rooney is ranting away then, after Rooney finishes his first rant, turns round to tell everyone to keep calm, then Rooney goes off on one again.

No problem with a player being angry after a goal and giving someone a bit of a rollicking on the pitch but that was over the top and completely unnecessary I wonder if it had any impact on the later mistake by Blackett trying too hard...

I don't think that his wage is the biggest issue, it's his attitude and ego that goes with it.

We've all come to accept that footballers are on silly money- (some deserved, others not) having your annual strop to demand more money then say that you love the club is one of the reasons I don't like him
