Wayne Rooney is so overrated it makes me mad!?

[Nickdh7034]

I think he offers the team a lot, and is a key elemnt in why we won the league.
He has a perfect understanding with players such as Ronaldo, Tevez and Giggs, though i can see why you may think he is overrated
Its hard when Ronaldo is always taking the praise
He scores many goals though not consistently, but he will learn, he's fair young.
He probably just feels annoyed at the lack of attenmtion he is getting and got into a rut...
I do miss his long shot goals though... far too much chipping attempts these days

Do you want your money back off Everton now that you are fed up with him?

Some players are playmakers and others are scorers. Even though he doesnt get the primary assists even, rooney is a very instrumental part of opening up many plays. And i HATE manchester united, so this is out of pure respect.

He is not the same player he use to be and you have a point when you say his goalscoring record is not great but his workrate and his overall game has improved over the past couple of years. I agree that he is greatly over rated by a lot of people

im an arsenal fan but i dont think rooney is over rated. far from it actually. he got 12 goals and 10 assists this season which isnt bad. he is an incredible talent so dont ever say he is over rated. plus u shouldnt base everything on how many goals he doesnt score for england etc. there is much much more to come from him dont u worry. arsenal are still gona win the league next year though!!

hes not over rated hes amazing

Your clear dislike of him, just as clearly clouds your judgment. If you just judge a player on goalscoring stats, then take into that the fact that he missed 16 or so matches. His stats would have been far better if not for injury and the fact that many players had their games altered to suit Ronaldo.
