10
Yeah I know, I was just more going on a rant than anything else. It really erks me how protected he is, seems we will do anything possible to have him in the team no matter if he's good or bad.
He's least detrimental on the bench! he's either got to play as a 9,10 or nothing. If he's not performing in the 10 then bench him. Being shifted around the team is not helping us at all. No other top class team in the world would pander to 1 player like we are, it's pathetic.
I honestly don't think any fans of City, Chelsea, Arsenal, Spurs, and Liverpool would want him, even if we were giving him away. I was reading a Rooney thread on a Sunderland forum after England had played Slovakia, and even those lot could see how poor he's become. He shouldn't be anywhere near the United team.
In the land of the blind, the one-eyed man is king.
Carragher is spot on. We need to stop shoehorning Rooney into our starting 11 we have better options.
At least somebody has the balls to say it. We're seeing people come out here and there and say that Rooney shouldn't start and it'll only grow this season. He just gets in the way. Even if he puts in a great performance, it's still kind of getting in the way of others and not letting us play as well as we could. Basically, we can be a good, solid team under Mourinho and will probably challenge for the title, but we won't be a truly top team until he's dropped. That's all we need I think. Let him be a squad player, but he shouldn't be starting.
sure the last thing carragher said was Rooney was poor in the derby, surprised he actually said that
He still tipped him for the Grand National though.
How's that saying go, jack of all trades, master of none.
I wonder if Buyern, Barca, Madrids etc tried to lure him away the last few seasons but we refused their £75m bids because he's not for sale or is it that he's shit and everyone other than a few muppets on here don't want him
No way! Did he really? Someone is getting their Colleen Rooney Xmas party membership revoked!
Phil Nevill isn't making sense. Rooney has to play because he's flexible. Look at how he suggests he can play either side. Wishing the space of 12 months,different pundits have suggested he should play, up front, No.10, midfield and out wide. I'm tired of this shite. Carragher is bang on.
They aren't even waiting for him to be terrible for months in one position before championing another any more, they are pushing for him to constantly be moved because even they realise how ridiculous this has gotten.
"I always studied Nijinsky closely in training..."
"Amazing dancer...but then again he had four legs."Wow, Carragher has to be the first English pundit/analyst on live TV to ever call out Rooney. You 100% certain he said that?
said Rooney under pressure getting in the united side now, more than the England side because of the quality options. It was mainly about how poor and ill disciplined Pogba was (its bad!) and basically come to the conclusion Pogba and the side need to play 4 3 3, which means Rooney in trouble
Souness did a couple of weeks ago. Keane has on a number of occasions. I'm sure there are a few others.
They took his passport off him immediately after.
Yep those were his exact words. He also said "it'll be easier to get into the England team" and a few other remarks, but the main thing was he clearly stated he thinks rooneys future as a first choice player is under threat.
Oh feck me, when will this end...
Shearer and Redknapp too. If Shearer criticises you and you still play for England, you really are fecked. I reckon Redknapp only changed his tune because it's starting to affect England now.
