Yes sorry I must have no idea what i'm talking about. Rooney plays amazing football every time he plays and performs every single match he plays... bounce

I've watced Rooney since his early days with Everton. I watched all his FA youth cup games with Everton in 2002.

so we are kids because?.. we dared to say that a guy who scored 53 goals last season as compared to (rooney's 17 it was ?) and who is regarded as the second best player by the majority of people is better than they guy who scored 17 and was more in the news for scoring off the pitch than on it? yeah man,.. intellectually challenged kids the lot of us

Rooney scored 2 free kicks + a penalty against Arsenals kids. He must be better than Ronaldo Laughing

no it wasn't about saying he's not better then Ronaldo, it is about your comments of his form last season...you don't see lots of goals on wikipedia so you assume he had a poor season, meanwhile if you had watched United you would see that he was the centerpiece to everything they did, that all the movement went thru him, he is and was the linchpin in the attack....i didn't call anyone intellectually challenged but if you think you are then fair enough :coffee:

so why does he always fail against barca?

'always fail'??

penalty goal in the league clasico where he performed quite well and messi didnt outshine him and it was honours even.. cup winning goal against barcelona was it? .. and the equalizing goal at the cam nou when were 1-0 down? .wow what a failure..i would love to fail like him

Ronaldos first fail against Barcelona: Missing a penalty and being second best to messi.

Ronaldos second fail, being anonymous again when we played Barca at Old trafford.

Ronaldo's third fail, coming back from injury and missing a one on one against Barca, with Ibra soon after winning the tie for Barca.

Ronaldos fourth fail, Being anonymous in another Barceona game and RM lose 2-0

Ronaldo's fifth fail and by no means his last. Getting outshined by everysingle Barcelona player on the pitch and getting a huge dose of MANITA. Tito on the sidelines played better.

Ronaldo sixth fail. Scoring a penalty goal against a barca side that had already wrapped up the league after once again doing sod all all game, in a home game.

Ronaldos seventh fail, doing sod all in the copa but taking the headline after di marias hard work. Story of his life. hopefully ozil will take this away this season.

Ronaldos eigth fail. Being absolutely anonymous in the two classicos, when Messi ran through REals entire back line. and in the second game where barca had to just play keep ball.

Ninth fail: Ronaldo doing nothing apart from his tap in in the super cup, when agan, his "equal" messi, made pepe fall on his kness and beg for forgiveness and ripped Madrid apart again.

some other notable fails: Leaving united to win just a copa.

Winnning the pichichi after the title was over. Messi won CL top GS third year running, had highest assist in la liga, won 3 trophies and battered RM. COMINGSECOND BEST TO MESSI CONSISTENTLY FAIL

Coming third to xavi and messi in the new awards getting voted by 3, yes 3 people out of 53. So he is third best now. THIRD BEST TO MESSI FAIL

Scoring 5 freekicks after taking 60+ in a season so convering a 1/12 th and somehow managing to be called a free kick specialist. DISGUSISED FAIL

Final fail, scoring 3 tap ins again and getting the headlines against zaragoza. FAIL

One of the greatest rants in here. It's even funnier because it's true. Congratz man. Thumbs up

No one here has come up with a reason why Rooney in any spectrum is better then Ronaldo.

He can fit seamlessly into tikki taka football.

this still going on

ronaldo is a better goalscorer, rooney the better footballer

rooneys technique, awareness, touch..everything is top notch atm

if you were to teach ronaldos style of football, youd have kids running straight lines and shooting from 35 yards

rooney can be the brain of a team, cr7 cant. footballer.

but hey, who are utd fans to judge? we only watched them play week in and wek out for 5 odd years together

scoring v osasuna..thats how you can really tell

ronaldo is one of the most intelligent footballers around imo.. you cant just score 53 goals a season with intuitions that the ball is going to come to you wherever youre positioned... youre the most biased poster ever.. i remember when rooney was doing all that drama about contracts and all on the old forums you were the first one to say that you dont need him and hes not that great for the money he wants , blah blah

Reading up old posts is often pretty amusing Very Happy

Wazza ended up losing it after he turned 30, then struggled for the next few years before calling it quits at 34.

Ronaldo still is being Portugal's goat at 38, and won several trophies well into his 30s. He's currently playingin a retirement league, but it still being a goat for the Portugese national team.
