Rooney appreciation thread (self.reddevils)

moaetaMartial が 投稿

Every single game, today included, match thread is full of comments about how shit Rooney is and how he shouldn't play.

And every game Rooney delivers. Goal vs Bournemouth, assist vs Southampton, another crucial assist today.

And what an assist. He made a run on the side, a kind of run that we'd expect from Martial. He dribbled through a defender with a nutmeg. And made a perfect pass that Rashford just needed to touch into a goal. All of this after running his heart out for 92 minutes and participating in several dangerous attack, including that header shot on goal.

I know he is not perfect, and he gave away possession. I'm not blind. But he delivers the result, and I am happy with 3 points today. Let's be nice to our captain for a change.

Thanks Wayne!

Ironically Rooney delivers when out wide. Twice.

People always say he's been wasted out there a lot but I think he's played some of his best football out wide where his flaws are less pronounced and his good delivery and work rate can have a good impact.

We have a very fluid attacking 5.

Martial/Rashford can move into the box from LW and Mkhi/Mata can move centrally from RW. Ibra can drop deep and Rooney can make the runs in behind instead, Pogba can move forward and Rooney/Ibra can move deep

he delivers

He delivered an assist. Can you be fucking real for a second? If he hadn't been on the pitch but a fast, skilful player who can control and pass a football (coughMkhtaryancough) had been, who's to say we wouldn't have played better?

We played with ten men for 90 minutes until Rooney did something. That doesn't mean he deserves his fucking place.

Bit of an overstatement. No worse than anybody else in the first half and was good in the second

He was one of the worst players in the first half, the fuck are you talking about? The only players I can say were as bad as him in the first half were Martial, maybe Ibra and maybe Pogba.

Mata and Fellani weren't anything special either and the defence/goalkeeper didn't have much to do.

I personally don't think Mata played all that well but apparently he did so there's that. Fellaini has been one of our best performers all season long and that continued through this game. Who cares if the defence and Dave didn't have much to do, does that make their performance worse than Rooney's?

It think its strange when Miki and Rashford came on he started to become way better. Maybe because Miki and Rashford provide pace upfront which Mata and Ibra and Rooney lack.

Yes he did give us the vital assist, but the rest of the game was really quite poor.

His performance was cringe. Mkih showing what a proper no.10 can do.

    There were plenty when he had that decent run of form last winter, in particular the game away to Newcastle. Problem is his decent runs of form are few and far between these days

    So, he was playing like a sunday league player for 91 minute and we should appreciate that? No.
