He sure gets some protection from Sky doesn't he. Sent the half time focussing on Mata's shot when he had 2 defenders bearing down on him and didn't really have anything to say about Rooney's slow ponderous play when he was clean through on his right foot.

Yeah it was awful when he got that hat-trick. At 3-0 I was sitting there with my head in my hands.

I get your point, but do you not agree he isn't good enough to be our main forward?

I struggle to see how anyone can think we're fine with Wayne as the main man this season.

Not just sky, same here by the presenters in India.
 
Now his touch has cost us a goal, and who knows maybe even points.
 
Maybe he should start cleaning LvG's boots and cook him nice dinners the coming weeks because he sure aint in the team on merit. It's a joke.
 
How is he our captain... and why does he always play?
I'd rather see us start without a striker and an extra attacking midfielder than him. When he is bad, which is way too often, he finds a way to have a net negative contribution..
 
Everyone who says "he will score goals" totally forget other parts of his game that has become detrimental to the team. He's constantly ruining attacks with a sloppy pass or touch.
 
Not sure I can take it any longer. Woeful. Still a good player on his day but utter garbage most of the time. He can't be our main striker this season or we're fecked.
 
He's been shit for a while. He needs to go. He's not a thirty goal striker. Never been one. He's barely been a 20 goal striker throughout his career. At the rate he's going, he'd be lucky with 15. Which is pathetic.
 
Darmian has charged up and Rooney has given it away. We're 2 at the back. None of the centre backs are to blame there. Too much space for them to cover. Rooney is inexcusable to give the ball away so cheaply when Darmian has gone forward and not to bother chasing it back. Lovely work by Swansea but Rooney's negligence handed it to them on a plate.
 
Must be a proper kick in the teeth for the rest of the team to see their captain play so shite and not have to worry about losing his place
 
Him being dogshit might actually get him out of the side.. being half decent is more worrying.. it would mean he continues to be first choice and get stuck with a mediocre striker.
 
Absolutely shocking. Took too many touches, muscled off the ball and flaps for a penalty.

Get rid.
 
Finished as a premier league striker, has been for a long time.
 
shooottttt

Kyle Walker wasn't around to put it in for him this time

f'cking shoot when you get that glimmer of the net!! garhh
 
Why does pause in those situations? Did the same think against Spurs.
 
Great play to make the chance himself and then ruins it with his reluctance to use his left foot again
 
I am sure we will get top four. Not because we are very good but everyone apart from City are shit. Rooney would not get anywhere near any of the top teams in and across Europe. I cannot believe the kind of shit we have produced this season and Rooney is a big reason for that. But LVG would say he has done well and will sell Hernandez saying he misses chances.
