are people seriously questioning Rooney's quality?

Have you noticed that Cavani is more or less useless for Uruguay? A poacher isn't going to help Tabarez's system, with a central midfield dedicated entirely to destruction, the dynamic duo of Forlan and Suarez is exactly what they need.

like I said, the overall play would be worse, but they'd score more goals. because he'd constantly be leading counterattacks in behind defences. the kid almost singlehandedly gave United their swagger back just because he could stretch teams out and finish clinically.

Because you put it in the definitive calculator of yours?

yup.

the way he runs in behind and works the channels would blow the top off defences, and Alvaro & Forlán would constantly find him in space.

I hope he doesn't play against us in August :). No Gerrard and no Suarez means we might actually win that one.

Nice try. Luis can't even lick Rooney's boots.. That's for another debate.. another day.

That's like me comparing..

Bebe > Pedro

Gibson > Iniesta.

Yeah we know you have the thoughts. Only not putting them forward to avoid embarrassment. dirty brain dirty thoughts FFS!

Nope, not questioning his quality, just saying there are a few ahead of him when discussing the best players in the world. Certainly think Rooney is the best UK player now that Scholes has hung up his boots

Eto'o is a much better scorer and passer, look at their passing completion rate and tell me. Eto'o is also a much better dribbler.most successful dribbles in Seria A with 94, Sanchez came second with 93, Eto'o also has the better vision, 37 goals 17 assists last season says it all.

Rooney is shit FFS stop comparing him with class players. He is no way near Eto and Suarez is alot better too. Rooney is an overhyped englishman who gets tons of press by the retarded english media.

there's only one striker better than Eto'o and that's David Villa.

Rooney can't equal Eto'o unless United continue to dominate and win at least a couple more CL's with him. technically and mentally he's a match for Eto'o - he scores, assists, plays brilliantly, and rocks big games (when played in his correct position) - but he's not achieved what Samu has achieved and that will always hold him back when you compare the two. that and consistency of goals scored; but then Rooney counters that with a much more balanced skillset, plus he's still only 25, Eto'o was just a season or two into being prolific at 25.

but yeah, it's hard to knock Rooney for not matching Eto'o's achievements when you consider he's English (so internationally he stands NO chance) and he plays for United, not Barcelona. I mean his goal against us in the CL Final was a big fuckin' deal. coulda been his version of Eto'o's goal in Paris. except United buckled where we pushed on. but then United had much more competent opponents than we did.

anyway what does this all haveta do with Luis "The Cunt" Suarez?

I agree to a point in the assertion that there are a few players who are better than him but no way is Rooney shit. He is a good player
