    He, apparently, is better than Messi.

    The closest he is to Pele is in the colour of his skin. ;)

    He's a bumbling fool! Did anyone count how many times he ran too fast for his legs and stumbled over during the Algeria game? Or how many times he gave the ball away?

    He is so shockingly average, where does all this praise come from that he is one of the best?

    Rooney the thug isn't fit to kiss Pele's feet, let alone be compared to a genuine football legend.

    Does not give 2 shits about England, therefore should not play.

    Wayne had an awful tournament, no question of that. He was pathetic throughout. But he went in not 100% fit and spiralled downwards from there. He is still top3 best players in the world.

    He's repulsive. The only good thing about England losing is not having to see his face everywhere anymore.

    Erin(sic) Cantona had a dubious international record.

    I wouldnt expect you to understand.

    At least we can look forward to the end of the world cup soon and it means we won't have to read rubbish like this. I guess that's you for 4 years now?

    too bad scoring against Burnley is not the same as scoring against an international side.

    When it comes to the crunch, Rooney fails horribly.

    Pity then that Rooney hasn't scored any goals for the national team then recently.

    Stick to Old Trafford Wayne ... as an England player you're a f***ing disgrace.

    He reminds me of norman whiteside in that he was a prodigy and so much was expected of him as he got older. Whiteside turned out being much better as a teenager/early twenties player and didn't develop into the player most thought he would. Rooney seems to be heading the same way

    Oh boo hoo....you fickle lot....your own fault for placing the hopes of the nation on his shoulders, he is a brilliant player, too much shit around him playing long ball instead of ball to feet, no technique AT ALL with the English players. He has not been fully fit since the Munich game. The manager should not have played him on that alone.

    The England team play the ball as if it is on fire, even Alergia have better technique than England in holding and passing the ball!! But to blame it on Rooney? Give over....you're havin a laugh!!!! Upson-shit, Terry-Shit, Barry-shit, Johnson-Shit (at defending, which is what he should do Lampard-Shit (unless he has 3 players behind him like at Chelsea)...the whole tournerment was a shambles for England!!

    Top 3 in the world? I don't even rate him as top 3 in the England team.

    Rooney has been so awful in this tournament.

    Lost count the amount of times he gave the ball away.

    Let me settle this:

    To someone who watches football for 2 weeks every 2 years (or only watched him playing injured this summer) he's poor.

    To people who watch football every week - they see how great he is.
