JoeAman08 Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 I think he's got a good tournament left in him as long as he isn't asked to be a lone striker like he is at Man U. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Welcome To The Jungle Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 Has been past his best for a long, long time. He was 16 like 11 years ago. Euro 2004 he was amazing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Super Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 If LVG is going to persist in that formation then they need a new front man. Ridiculous how much money he has spent yet they resort to route one football to Fellaini late on. United used to be great to watch now for me they are one of the most boring to watch.

BCFC Jordan Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 He was 16 like 11 years ago. Euro 2004 he was amazing. I genuinely think that was his best years on an individual level. Probably should have gone to Chelsea a few years ago. He's won everything at United. There's a reason Ferguson wanted rid. Personally think he's held the England national team back in recent years. May have a good goalscoring record but vast majority were tap-ins against the likes of Latvia and San Marino. Not performed in an England shirt for a long time.

Ridiculous how much money he has spent yet they resort to route one football to Fellaini late on. United used to be great to watch now for me they are one of the most boring to watch. Indeed. For an alleged managerial genius, his plan of boring everyone to sleep trying to break the oppositon down, and then bring on Fellaini to lump it towards if that isn't working doesn't seem particularly inventive.

Northern Red Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 You have to remember that Rooney was essentially a manchild, i.e he was fully developed physically at about 18. Therefore it stands to reason that if he's fully developed a good 3/4 years before most players, he'll be finished a good 3/4 years before them too. And given his shape and stature, I suspect he requires quite a bit of work to stay in condition too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Offside Posted August 30, 2015 Report Share Posted August 30, 2015 Pretty sure Russell Osman patented that (apart from the Fellani bit, it was Wayne Allison). Not sure if it was when Osman was manager, but I also recall us putting Junior Bent up front in a game and lumping it to him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess what, funnily enough we play more games against these sides! Sturridge up top with Welbeck and Sterling. Rooney held us back last World Cup. Was also very poor in 2010. Roy Hodgson gets wins against the lesser sides. Doesn't mean he's cut out for the job, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
