That's true, Rooney is better than Messi.

Well, Rooney is not overrated. He is a world class player even said by his footballing opponents. If I had to pick a player to for brazil from england then it has to be rooney.
Dont see whats overrated about him.

Some people overrated him, when he was in the best form of his goalscoring life they were comparing him to Messi and Ronaldo, some even claimed he was better.. but he's obviously not.chiboygeorge wrote:Well, Rooney is not overrated.

I only talked about carrick in fa semifinals when everyone blamed him instead of looking what happened before that.
I dont see how I defend carrick to be labelled as his biggest defender

That's true, Rooney is better than Messi.
So claims Mr. Ancelotti.
"Everyone goes for Messi but I would take Rooney. Messi is out of this world and maybe he is reaching the level of Maradona. Rooney, however, is closer to the reality of football. He puts his talent out to the rest of the team and this explains the difference between players and outstanding players."

Basically he knows Messi is better by saying he's reaching the level of Maradona, and he'd take Rooney because he'd do more of a job for his squad... either way it's bullshit and Messi is better than anyone and anything.Scuba Steve wrote:So claims Mr. Ancelotti.

Dont care what people say but id rather rooney play for brazil than higuain. Brazil have player similar to higuain and no true finisher forward like rooneykyro7 wrote:Some people overrated him, when he was in the best form of his goalscoring life they were comparing him to Messi and Ronaldo, some even claimed he was better.. but he's obviously not.chiboygeorge wrote:Well, Rooney is not overrated.

To be honest, I'm like one of the biggest English haters around here, but I'd love me some Rooney for Mexico. Fuck Higuain.

What Carlo's saying I think is that there's no way you'd get another player like Messi, but Rooney is perhaps a more pragmatic member of a squad as he does more for the team.
Or maybe the old cunts just gone senile.

I may be completely unfounded, but I think British clubs are "bigger" operations. Meaning that an average 15th place team in Spain pays less than the 15th place team in England.

About 40million of that is in parachute payments for when/if they go down.

this is part of the reason England's national team is so shit. Teams like Brazil have players in all corners of the world, all learning different techniques and ideas about the game, where in england they all play in the same league.

Does not compute. Last two World Cup winners had teams consisted of players mainly from their home league.

they are just not good enough to player overseas and are comfortable be lazy and content with life in th eir own country which is no bad but they will never truly amount to anything

But really anywhere but Barca or Madrid would be a step down and he wouldn't get in Barca's team.
