TO DC 1989. What you replied was exactly what I was thinking about Rooney. Good on you mate. I have always thought that he was a good premier league player BUT! On the world stage ie Champions league, England etc he is mediocre to say the least.
1.) Yet when Rooney plays well, people are all on here harping on about him being amazing. I personally tired of the Rooney posts. The facts are, he is a very good player, he offers a lot to the team, he scores and makes loads of goals every season, and he has loads of talent, but needs to improve his form, fitness and commitment.

What do you Manchester United fans really think of Rooney. Do you think he is over rated and would be pleased to see him go or would you prefer him to stay. As an Arsenal supporter I would not want to see him at Arsenal and quite a few Arsenal supporters I know feel the same. Thanks.
1.) When in shape he is quality, but he is a terrible professional who let's himself go and doesn't take care of himself. He also seems to be playing without any real passion. A wasted talent.
2.) On top form, Rooney can score and make goals for fun, and he can absolutely unstoppable. However I think he will stay since I think we would regret selling him. The fact that he can score and make so many goals means he can add more to the team than most other striker. He just needs to get fitter and slimmer. Personally under Moyes I think we will see a new Rooney.
3.) Fresh
as of late, he looks very fit
4.) My personal opinion is that his problems go much deeper than his fitness. I think his touch has deteriorated as he's got older (not uncommon) so he's having to think much more about what he does - as opposed to being able to be a purely instinct player like when he was younger. His decision making after that is poor - he wants to be Hollywood instead of playing for the team.
I think he'll still have days when it all comes together and he destroys opposition, but he'll never be the player he was at 23 / 24.

He's not over rated as such. Well he is by the media and at times I think he buys into the media myth of the white pele too much. Its more that he never hit the potential that was so visible during Euro 2004. And that's largely down to his lack of professionalism, drinking, smoking, stuffing himself with crap foods. that's the biggest disappointment. If he had been more professional like Ronaldo or van Persie then what could he have become? If he got his head sorted, got his weight under control, got his fitness back and was willing to work hard, earn his place back in the side and just show some fight then i'd be more than happy to keep him. But I don't think he's commited to United and I only want players who are commited. Not ones who go crying off whenever something doesn't go their way.
6.) My personal opinion is he is not world class an has never been he is to inconsistent to be world class in my eyes he's never been the best player in world or even the best in his position but very good player when fit an playing mostly lower league teams I can't remember him dominating a game against world class opponents in the champions league I would like him gone and replace buy a technical player who is agile an quick of the mark which rooney is not
