Wayne Rooney – genius or scumbag?

[Sman]

He's neither, Messi is a genius Rooney is brilliant fron time to time but not a genius.

Id call the opposition fans who chant abuse about his wife being a slag etc as scumbags, Rooney needs to kop on and grow up but scumbag no.

[Forrest]

Bad language and swearing on the pitch is just part of the game and in the heat of the moment but running over to the camera like a nutter screaming his guts out just to look as if he’s the man was uncalled for.

Utter boll*x!!! He didn't run over to the camera like a nutter.
He ran to the United fans behind the goal and the cameraman came over to him, as I have already said, looking for a reaction.
Btw, what happened to Stephen Gerrard when he gave the V sign and shout obscenities at the referee in a match?

"Television pictures showed the Liverpool skipper apparently raising two fingers towards Marriner and mouthing an obscenity following his caution for a reckless challenge.
The FA offered the view that it was a momentary show of frustration at the prospect of a ninth Barclays Premier League defeat this season for Liverpool, and that the matter could be dropped"



As for your Rugby comment, there are plenty of thugs that play Rugby. Sport of gentlemen, my hole!!!

Spot on - Rooney is a fine footballer but has some way to go to be called a genius. As to his other antics well he would appear to be easily provoked but calling him a scumbag is OTT.

OK so he scored a couple of goals at the weekend big deal, after all is does get paid £150,000 per week to do it so was his outburst on TV acceptable taking into account all of the stick he’s been getting this season for not being on form? I don’t think so.

I think he’s a vile, disgusting little shit.




Lovely stuff for any child sitting watching his sporting hero live on a Saturday morning.

I’d have given him a five match ban and freeze his wages as well for bringing embarrassment on the club, I’m saying all of this and I’m a United fan.

Thank you JohnRambo.....he realy is a sheet I hate him too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[warmcome]

is he of Irish descent? because the surname is.

Just goes to prove, money can't give you everything. Rooney is a thug, and it seems a lot of premiership players also behave both on and off the pitch as untouchables, but Rooney gets protected because he is a "name" with FA in UK and hence they will just go tut tut, next time you will suffer etc etc. He is no role model and if Man U gave a damn they would saction him. If he was a foreign player there would be an outcry from the FA etal
