But Tamuff, given that Rooney only scores in qualification games and qualification is pretty much assured already, do you not think we would be better off playing someone else who might be able to score against the bigger sides at finals? Because for some reason Rooney can't.

Iran, Nigeria, Bosnia, Serbia, Peru and Mexico. The teams Messi has scored against in competition. His only KO stage goal was in a 4-0 win v Peru 7 years ago. This is the supposed best player ever. The list of teams Rooney's scored against is certainly far more impressive. Who are these players who're going to score against top teams? There aren't many in the World, let alone England.

 

 

except Thomas Muller its probably hard to find any player that consistenly does it against the top teams

Rooney played really well against Switzerland, football is about much more than just scoring goals. Besides, who created the first goal? Oh yeah... it was Rooney who collected the ball, made a perfect run before he passed it to Sterling. Most players would have done something in that build-up which would have destroyed the attack before it even became one.

Sterling and welbeck both **** up identical breaks in the same game...

If that's the way we're going to play then Rooney in possession, sterling and welbeck running past him is definitely the way you want it

Sterling / welbeck / sturridge, especially sturridge IMO showed in these 2 games that for all their talent greed gets the better of them and they are too indecisive in passing in the final 3rd
