He's supposed to have been England's genuine world star for over a decade. Is he fuck. Surely one of the most over-rated and overpaid media footballers in living memory. And a cunt of a bloke to boot. A cheat and a tosser who has always placed the cash above the football. Yes he'll steal records from proper players on the basis he was pre-printed onto every team sheet, big deal. Nobody will be talking about Rooney in the same breath as Charlton or Best, not even at Man Utd.
