What do you mean? It's more understandable that he's done as he played at 16 in PL most games. The Ronaldo example is wrong as he got here at 18 and was rested a lot during his first season while Rooney did play all the time.

He is not the only footballer that started that young. There are tons of footballers who started a year above him and have continued effectively years after his ridiculous decline. This is on him for not looking after himself.

Anyway, this is a performance thread and he has been shocking today

 

[saivet]

He's done better than I expected..

 

[klayton88]

I've seen dogs in better states being put down.

 

[Jazz]

I'm pleased that Pogba has put to bed the myth that Rooney is good at passing, too. Rooney tries those daft passes from deep but they're about as threatening as Heather Mills in a marathon.

 

[NinjaZombie]

It's not. It's an observation. Fire him into the sun for all I care.

Can the folks at Morocco who love him so much stump up the money to buy him or something?

 

[TheReligion]

Can't believe he didn't square pass to Mata for the tap in

 

[Art Vandelay]

Mourinho has subbed people at half time for offering more than Rooney has today, yet he remains on the pitch.

 

[JoaquinJoaquin]

Looks like he is getting 90 minutes. Been crap and gets 90, Not sure how.

 

[Skills]

Why the feck does he get first dibs on set pieces?

 

[Art Vandelay]

Why the feck does he get first dibs on set pieces?

He's decent at freekicks(although not as good as Mata) why he's still taking penalties and corners remains a bloody mystery.

 

[NinjaZombie]

I'd be livid at him if we were actually interested in winning this game.

 

[Kraftwerker]

Waste of space.

 

[Castia]

I've never seen a player fall so fast, he's finished to the point of not even being Premier League quality I think.

Should feck off to America asap.

 

[#07]

Everything about his performance today. Awful.

 

[Cloud7]

He's had a good career. Been massive for United over the years, but today really should be his last outing in the jersey. Time for the sacrificial lamb to be taken to the altar.

 

[11101]

I make that 5 points he's cost us now in the last 2 games.

 

[Ixion]

I imagine he's going to start and probably get the full 90 of the remaining league games as we'll put everything into Thursday's game and hopefully the final.

 

[NinjaZombie]

I make that 5 points he's cost us now in the last 2 games.

Same can be said of Herrera though.

 

[Shark]

Hopefully this is the last time we see him ever start a match for us again. With any luck, it's the last we've seen from him full stop and Jose plays a kid from the reserves in his place. He's one of the most useless players in the league, the definition of ineffective.

 

[opopop]

What if he really does stay next year

 

[dannyrhinos89]

It should never come to it as a fan but I literally hate him now as I expect most United fans do.

He should've fecked off years ago because these past few seasons he's just like a fat pubey turd you can't flush away

 

[ha_rooney]

If I actually cared about the result, I'd be fuming at Jose for starting him & then not substituting him.

He's finished. We'd be lucky to get any sort of fee for him.

 

[Rado_N]

We'd be better off with 10 men.

Definition of counter-productive more like.

You could have said that several times this season, yet he keeps getting games.

Fee? You're serious mate?

 

[AndyJ1985]

He's fit for the scrapheap. It's pitiful to see how bad he has become.

 

[11101]

Same can be said of Herrera though.

I'm not sure how.

 

[Cloud7]

You could have said that several times this season, yet he keeps getting games.

I'm sure if we didn't have the injuries he wouldn't be getting any minutes, it's more a case of a necessity at this point. With that being said, its remarkable how he manages to continue getting worse. You would think his decline would have bottomed out at some point but today was arguably worse than it has been at any point this season.

 

[Icemav]

The usual mix of the good and the downright awful.

 

[NinjaZombie]

I'm not sure how.

Should've trusted his guts and stayed on the line last week.

 

[El Zoido]

Everything just dies when the ball reaches his feet.

 

[MrPooni]

The usual mix of the good and the downright awful.

 

[Moby]

Just fire him before full time. Embarrassing.

 

[kopviolator]

I swear, he makes me miss Cleverley

 

[Jazz]

We'd be better off with 10 men.

We've known that for ages and the manager keeps playing him. As we have injuries and such, I'd rather put a youngster on the field instead of him.

United should have got rid before the start of the season. We are our own worst enemy

 

[11101]

Should've trusted his guts and stayed on the line last week.

Goalkeeper controls that situation, he had to listen.

 

[NinjaZombie]

I still don't understand why he didn't lay the ball off to Mata on that first half chance.

 

[11101]

I still don't understand why he didn't lay the ball off to Mata on that first half chance.

Strikers instinct which is fair enough. He has to finish it though if he doesn't pass.

 

[Icemav]

Yes. He wasn't completely abject. Sorry.
