This picture makes me laugh way more then it should

He's remarkable and we don't always appreciate that. There's so much maturity in his game these days but he still is willing to sacrifice himself for the team wherever we play him. Doesn't always play as an out and out striker but his goalscoring is good enough to set records. While he's on a hot streak we need to keep him higher up the pitch.
 


I thought he said that! That whole interview was a cock up from start to finish as the presenter on sky said we had an experienced defence and that we had more possession of the ball.
 
How can you possibly watch that game and want him up top alone? He's doing half the midfields work.
The midfield won't have to do as much work with him up front because when the ball goes up there, something will happen, when it goes up to RVP, it just comes straight back.
 
Chipping the ball with your wrong foot isn't easy. Doing it at a vital moment at full speed against Arsenal after putting in a shift like he had, man that's brilliant. The man is a genius.

Yeah, that finish doesn't seem to be getting the praise it deserves. It was absolutely fantastic.
 
Must be an absolute joy to play alongside him. And he almost always does the right thing in the final third (when he's not trying those chips). Hoping to see him as the main man up front soon, I'd be delighted to see a midfield of Carrick, Fellaini and Herrera behind Rooney, Di Maria and one other (preferably not RVP).

Apart from hard work, Rooney offers nothing in the midfield role that Herrera, Di Maria or Mata doesn't. He's a striker for me, and he'll always be. I want him to spend all that energy of his on hassling defenses, running into space, creating goal scoring opportunities and being at the end of balls.

But that's just my opinion. I don't like seeing Rooney drop deep.
 
Rooney is brilliant at almost everything, but his very best is scoring goals and creating assists. He needs to be as far forward as he can to be doing that. Against Hull at home, in the form he is in, he could be bagging a few.
 
He was crap when he played striker at the start of the season, after being moved in midfield I can't remember him having a bad game.

I am very impressed with him this season, not only his form, but how he conducts himself after being made captain.

Let's hope we have Mata in there then next time. Would be a sight to behold giving Wilshere free reign of CM because Mata tackles like a 13year old girl. Can't wait!
 
I was one of his biggest critics as a 10 / midfielder at the start of the season.
But hes been brilliant in that role since playing there and hes getting better too so i'd be reluctant to move him.
Just think hes long overdue having a settled position in the team instead of being shunted around and i think leaving him will reward us more in the long run.

Can see the attraction obviously. Matas been pretty good (at least where goals are concerned anyway)
and Van Persie hasn't really but i'd leave rooney in midfield personally.
 
Glad he is starting to get the praise again. Some of the stick he was getting around the time of the Leicester game was crazy.
 
I've started to like him again this year. After the transfer request nonsense and the fallout with SAF Rooney just sort of diminished a little in my eyes. But he clearly has a lot of passion and seems to be doing a decent job as captain, hope he keeps it up.

I think it was more his reaction to it, when one of their goals went in he was screaming at the players more in a negative way rather than positive, glad he is on form though and he is settling into the role more now.

But they were using stuff like that to try and add weight to their argument on his performances.
