      The grit, the determination. Didn't know when he was beaten.

  • @chrissilvester5663

    Rooney was an absolute gem one of the best all round players. He scored a club record of 253 goals a tally that no doubt would've been far higher had he been more selfish but that wasn't Rooney. He was always a team player often playing out of position to accommodate others. His winning mentality, work rate, desire, will to win, selflessness etc he was incredible. One of our greatest ever players. One of a kind totally fearless

    Here in Kenya, he's always been the best to us after Ronaldo and Messi. Not Henry, not nobody. He came to our neighbors in Tanzania more than 5 years back against a club from our country. Our club won against Everton but Rooney scored a screamer. I've never seen such adoration for a person here, he means a lot to a lot of people

    If anyone who questions his status as a legend, He ELBOWED Pepe in a friendly match. And made us feel like Pepe was nothing.

  • @lwandomadikizela2213
    @lwandomadikizela2213 Před 21 dnem +5

    My favourite Manchester United player of all time and my favourite player ever to play the game. His anger fueled him to reach levels that most players can dream of. At one point he was better than Ronaldo but we all know what happened post 2006 World Cup but Rooney was scoring goals and making assists when he was needed. That volley against Newcastle, the overhead kick in the Manchester Derby and his half way goal against West Ham isn't by accident. Yes his last 3 years at Manchester United was extremely painful due to him declining before turning 30 but he still pops up with goals and him becoming our all time top scorer is a testament of how great Wayne Rooney was at Manchester United. We'll never see a player like Wayne Rooney ever again.

    • @DirtyJamesUK
      @DirtyJamesUK Před 20 dny +1

      My fave 3 are Ronaldo R9, Henry and Rooney.
      IMO R9 is the most amazing talent I've seen, Henry was my old prem favourite and then Rooney appeared.

    Excellent video and tribute. That's what I loved about Rooney. I know I speak for many united fans who grew up in the peak Rooney era when I say that he is what we refer to when we say the United "identity." He fought every game to the death. He could never walk on the pitch when we are 1-0 down. He literally led from the front and others followed suit. He is my choice for best United player ever.

    I remember that bicycle kick he had against City. I was laying on my couch watching the game, and when he scored I remember jumping up like a wild man excited like a kid!

    Brilliant video.
    He was the reason I started following manutd as a kid. First saw him in the 3-2 AC Milan UCL game where Kaka destroyed us. Already knew about Kaka but Rooney was a first for me. I immediately loved his energy. He developed into one of the most complete footballers, able to play so well in different positions. That versatility, for me, is what made him so invaluable to the team

    Wayne was just a footballer, just like Scholes, all they cared for was football, not the media.

    If we observe Rooney's career from a broader perspective, it was an incredibly successful career: Winning everything at club level, being country's top scorer along with a lot of personal accolades.
    However,
    Considering Rooney's talent and how good he once was, he didn't live upto his potential.
    The last of the original Wayne Rooney was lost after the 08-09 season. Numbers suggest otherwise
