I dunno, I just think people are too eager to **** off rooney and minimize his achievements as if to prove we didn't lose the best player everton have produced in decades.
This is a guy who's won eight major trophies and scored 250 top level goals.
There's not many english men to have scored more goals internationally, there's none to score more in the european cup, and there's few to score more in the top flight.
So yeah he had a better career than more talented guys like gazza and best. I think that's obvious. He's up there as one of the very best players to ever play for everton.
