True talk

Mata used to be great.....the guy seems to be suffering from Torres syndrome

RuuDie:

codedguy1: @ coogar I totally agree with your analysis of Rooney. He seems to lead us to nothing everytime he his made the main man. Rooney has been steadily declining in his performances in this club he just flatters to deceive by either scoring a goal when he is also having a stinker of a game and that blinds everyone.

But ought to also agree that your defence of young in that United team is becoming a joke! Young is the greatest scam in the history of Man u. This was a guy I personally felt was a united player with his exploits in AV and was happy he came to United, to say he has been a disappointment is an understatement. The Id1ot gave us sterling perfomances in pre season only to start showing himself in the first game of the season under LvG.

Granted almost everyone was piss poor today, I just wanted to talk about these two cos Elampiro can kill for Rooney while you always find a way of blaming Rooney even when a defender is at fault for a goal.

I feel both of them should even go considering what we expect of them and what they serve!

Nihilist: Same Rooney that is only a goal away from equalling Henry's EPL total flatters to deceive?
Wetin man no go read for this thread?

coogar:

misleading statistics....

how many minutes did it take henry to reach that milestone? how many minutes has rooney played to reach his?

if worker A takes 100 hours to finish a task & the other worker B took 500 hours to finish his.....in your logic, worker A = worker B as long as the job is done?

no wonder you support chelsea.

Shola Ameobi was in Newcastle 1st team squad from 2000 till the end of last season...Why didn't he equal Henry's record?

Carlton Cole made his debut in 2001...why is he not in the top 10 all time EPL scorers?

Rooney is currently 4th all time EPL top goalscorer despite being shunted left flank, right flank and central midfield...and is still only 28 years old....

What else do you want from a nigga?

coogar:

if rooney isn't english, he woulda been sold aeons ago. baffling that a player that has spent close to 11 seasons cannot make accurate short passes to the side. more than 5 attacking moves were ruined today cos of rooney's underhit passes from 5-9 yards.

when rooney is on his game, you could mistake him for messi or ronaldo but such moments are once in a blue moon. when rooney is out of form, patience jonathan has a better football brain than him. his bottom level is the worst in the history of association football!!

coogar:

shola ameobi & carlton cole are not regarded as pele. they have never played for the best football club in england in the last 11 seasons, they never played under SAF. the comparison is laughable.

rooney has played 28,992 mins in the premier league & he has only 174 goals to show for it.

henry played 21,303 mins in the premier league & he scored 176 goals.

with a difference of 7,689 minutes translating to 85 league games, rooney couldn't outscore thierry henry.

and you think they are equal?

Dadehmola:

Elampiro, This your obsession with pace, power, endurance and "agidi" is a cause for concern.

I know you would gladly pick Kevin Nolan over David silva anyways..

codedguy1:

Rooney flatters to deceive joh.

For someone shafting United of 300k/pwk he should atleast be doing what Suarez is doing/did for liverpool.

If Rooney has kept on coming 3rd in the last 3 Ballon d'or behind Ronaldo and Messi with a ridiculous amount of goals and excellent performances better than what he has been dishing out. Nobody will complain.

If you want to go that way:

Shearer had a career total of 379 goals in 733 appearances...That's 0.51 goals per game

Henry has a career total as of today of 353 goals in 764 appearances....That's 0.46 goals per game

Rooney has 234 goals in 520 apps including today...that is 0.45 goals per game.

So this goal scoring record in the league is not a fluke...but is actually consistent with the career goal scoring rate of some of the legendary goal scorers....including the aforementioned players and Robin Van Persie(202 in 431, 0.47 goals per game)

Well, the results are important, what am just saying is that, the boy is creative and talented, he should be given a chance! 'Once in a while' featuring won't be bad for him.

Meanwhile, you said his effort didn't help, no problem! Thank God the season is just starting, you will see more and more of the boy. Watch out!

coogar:
the second goal was conceded because our defence was caught napping. somebody should have taken the yellow card for the team by blocking bony's quick freekick. that freekick got the defence in a disarray, young was isolated at the far end, but young isn't a left back......there's no way he should be blamed for that goal! if evans & shaw were fit, young wouldn't have been in that position.

coogar:

this is man utd thread, not chelsea's - we don't count appearances, we count number of minutes. number of appearances is for the novices in football statistics.

a player that played 1 min & the one that completed 90 mins all have the same number of appearance. how's that statistically accurate in the grand scheme of things?

nitrogen:
@bolded, you are very right, see silly short passes, Rooney killed us today jare!

Lol at Mama peace has a better footie brain than Rooney (when the nigga is at out of form).

Meanwhile, Young too isn't good for United, infact, we should sell all English brats (that are above 25 years) in our team, they are useless!

once in a while featuring for what? Januzaj should be the third name on the list behind de Gea & van Persie every other match day bros; leave matter for mathias

Nihilist:
Rooney's in the upper echelon of all time goal scorers in the EPL and his goal per game ratio is very similar to some of his elite peers in that list.

It's no fluke that Rooney is in that esteemed company....He is simply one of the greatest strikers to have ever played in Europe.

Don't mind me jare, Januzaj is a very good player, he deserves more playing time!

Coogar is just one eccentric person, where others are facing, he prefers to back the place. All his Cleverly, Ashley Young, and others' hyping are just hillarious! The way he compares his buddies (dem Cleverly) to the likes of Kroos, is baffling. I hail you o, Coogs.
