Same for me I was playing fifa before I actually started watching club football cause I didn’t have cable back then and he was on every cover of fifa lol
@@Randomasf24 same here too I was playing pes and he was my favorite player, very reliable in game. I felt like watching him in real game and he was even more than reliable. That how I started following Manchester united.
His technique, versatility, tenacity and hunger make him such a unique player. He looked like a plumber, he ran like a bull, he fought like a bare-knuckle boxer, and he played like an artist. What a player!
Loved watching Rooney play. Gave everything for the shirt. It's kinda sad that we'll probably never have a player like him at United again..Legend!!!!!
we will genuinely never ever see a player quite like Wayne Rooney ever again. We've seen players come in that have similar qualities, but none of them have ALL the same qualities. He was the ultimate attacking footballer.
Saw him play many times. Saw him score a hat trick on his debut. Saw him score a worldie away at Newcastle saw him play injured away at west brom and Blackburn. Absolute legend. Never gave up. Played for the badge.
For me, watching him play out of position was probably what impressed me the most. Of course an AMAZING striker, but what makes him untouchable as the best in England and definitely one of the best among legends is, he was just so good at everything else too. He could really do it all and better than most.
Brilliant video He deserves everything he’s got , I went the same school he’s always been destined for greatness. Seen his goal against arsenal I was right behind it in the upper bullins. Still loved him even when he left
Most underrated player of all time.. the most well rounded animal I’ve ever seen.. people really forget bro dropped goal scoring roles for Ronaldo, berbetov, teves even chicharito
He's not underrated. He's thought of highly by anyone who's ever watched the game. Did you not watch the video? It is literally a 'whose who' of celebs waxing lyrical about the great man. He is not underrated at all. Is he overlooked when people mention the greats, especially when talking about the Premier league, or players who left a lasting impression on the game? Absolutely.
a footballer with a nasty streak from the 60's playing with the skills of today, he had everything you need to be a top ten in the world elite player . a true premier leauge great
Rooney is the only striker to cover the entire pitch almost every game and still come up with great goals and assists. He was a player who only cares about the team winning. He was never interested in individual awards. He was as good as any player in his generation. He work so hard for the team so much that people forget how good he was.
Rooney and Ronaldo has to be one of the best combinations ever in football. The goals they scored, the assists, the speed, everything. Being able to watch then in their prime was such a privilege. How lucky were we to be able to watch them live. Sensational!
Thank you for the video. You made my day. I was always sad that he is underrated and undervalued but now I see the best players in football history chose him as favorite. Pele, Maradona choosing him is something special🔥🔥🔥
I was 6 years old, didn't knew a thing about football, couldn't even watch it since I had no cable tv at home but what got me into football was watching Wayne Rooney play for Manchester United on the tv at the MacDonald's near my house.
Beautiful compilation, reminiscent of what some of the best players in the world used to say about Scholesy , albeit totally different players. Wayne was a genius. I remember being in Miami that summer visiting my dad ( a huge Utd fan and the reason i support the club) telling him " dad dad we have to sign this kid he's something I've never seen before " . There was no actual bid or even media interest from Utd for Roo but i knew he was a Man U player that young. We got him ahead of Newcastle and the rest is history! Up there with Best as one of our greatest ever players.
One of those players we didn't quite appreciate until they are gone. As an englishman there are others, the likes of ashley cole and even players like ledley king etc. As for foreign players busquets comes to mind.
Still remember that entire game to this day. The legends on the pitch. Maldini Seedorf Kaka Scholes Pirlo Rooney Ronaldo Giggs and Rooney and Kaka were the best players that night. United won 3-2 but it’s a shame they lost the return leg 3-0. But next year in 2008 they won the UCL.
Ohhh the nights I stayed up just to see him play. A complete Team Player. You would see him all over the pitch. Greatness that has not been given its due. Sad 😞
Special player. Simply sensational. People can disagree if they want, but as a United fan, I can’t praise him highly enough. 18 years old, coming to one of the biggest clubs in the world and scoring a hattrick. And then going on to be the all time top scorer despite years where he was more of a creator than a goal scorer.
Rooney was his own player and was undoubtedly one of the greatest legends to ever live and he played for 2 clubs in the prem in Everton twice and MU throughout all his career and scoring one of the greatest overhead kick goals against Man City and to win nobody has ever done that again and to score from basically the halfway line while David Beckham was watching was magnificent lol even Beckham was in shock from that goal from Rooney
So glad as a United fan to have witnessed him live at a number of games. A phenomenal player and I don’t say that lightly. He could’ve scored much had he been more selfish and didn’t sacrifice his natural position to play in other positions. I cannot praise this player enough and he needs to have a statue outside Old Trafford
He was street footballer. Not an academy type, where they’re taught to pass sideways and backwards all the time. Street footballers you play by instinct. Your mum shouts “right it’s time to be indoors” someone shouts “winning goal” and you make your side wins.
The reason Rooney isn’t always remebered that well is the second half of his career was mid by his exceptional standards. He peaked early, gained weight and ran himself to the ground. He was basically a CM who didn’t score more than 15-20 per season for like 4-5 years and finished at top level by 30. Less talented players like Kane have aged better, peaked later
Agreed. I think 13/14 was the last seriously good Rooney season but at least we got a solid decade out of the lad. I don’t know if it’s even possible to play the way Rooney played for much longer than that - the guy was a human firework from 17-27. Was always going to burn out.
Always gave 100% , even on an off day. A superb footballer who was very unselfish and gave his all for England , Man Utd and Everton. How Man Utd could do with a couple of players like him now.
Been watching religiously since I was 12 (2002). I was amazed by him, he played out of position for many many games in his career. Always wondered if they had just kept him as a #9 how many more goals he would’ve scored.
I have tons of United Shirts, supporting them since 2007 and I only have with a player name i.e Wazza. Wayne Rooney is such a legend......Saw my mate the other day....He said to me, He saw the white Pele❤❤❤❤
He had everything a player must have, bro this man he was not laughing too much.... Thank haven I watched him...... We don't have these days like him... Tell me who?
I have been a Manchester United fan all my life I have seen players play for this club and players playing for other clubs in the premier league but without a shadow of a doubt wayne rooney for me is the greatest premier league and English player of all time he is my idol alongside David Beckham and Cristiano Ronaldo but Wayne Rooney is the greatest in my opinion
He was the reason I started supporting Manchester united.
Giggs was my reason cos my family knew his family, but rooney is my favourite player of all time! ❤
Same for me I was playing fifa before I actually started watching club football cause I didn’t have cable back then and he was on every cover of fifa lol
As a culer he is the only reason i support utd in prem
Me too bro❤
@@Randomasf24 same here too I was playing pes and he was my favorite player, very reliable in game. I felt like watching him in real game and he was even more than reliable. That how I started following Manchester united.
With so much talent n skills but still the ultimate team player.
As tears run down my cheeck , at moments like these I wish we would never age and could still enjoy these days😔
I cried when he left United. He's my own 🐐🐐🐐.
My own White Pelé.
He deserved more than he got!
generational talent
grow up
He was a Complete Player. He had everything you would want in a player. What A Legend!!!!
His technique, versatility, tenacity and hunger make him such a unique player.
He looked like a plumber, he ran like a bull, he fought like a bare-knuckle boxer, and he played like an artist. What a player!
@@kh7688 100% agree with you.
Only thing missing was his taste in women
@@FranticRSI'm sure he liked your mom
We will never get a united player like him again
Never be another player like him mate never mind for man u. He was a different breed right from an early age he had it all
Beckham, Giggs, Scholes, Best, Law, Charlton, Edwards, Robbo, Cantona, Rooney. Etc Etc..
I agree 💯 even today I wish he could lace it up still and perform
True
The old women of Manchester dont get harassed as much now that he's left 😂
Loved watching Rooney play. Gave everything for the shirt. It's kinda sad that we'll probably never have a player like him at United again..Legend!!!!!
I don’t think England will ever get somebody like Rooney. He was truly out of this world.
we will genuinely never ever see a player quite like Wayne Rooney ever again. We've seen players come in that have similar qualities, but none of them have ALL the same qualities. He was the ultimate attacking footballer.
All of the goals he scored from roughly halfway were first-time strikes! No control, just sheer brilliance.
Different breed.
Rooney was similar to tevez. But Rooney was a little better at everything. I loved both
Saw him play many times. Saw him score a hat trick on his debut. Saw him score a worldie away at Newcastle saw him play injured away at west brom and Blackburn. Absolute legend. Never gave up. Played for the badge.
You lucky man. Jealous ain't the word.
For me, watching him play out of position was probably what impressed me the most. Of course an AMAZING striker, but what makes him untouchable as the best in England and definitely one of the best among legends is, he was just so good at everything else too. He could really do it all and better than most.
He was better than anyone. An animal. Pure aggressive talent was rooney. Legend.
Wazza is my all time favourite player ❤

He deserves everything he’s got , I went the same school he’s always been destined for greatness.
Seen his goal against arsenal I was right behind it in the upper bullins.
Still loved him even when he left
2nd in all-time prem goals and 3rd in assists or something mental like that... Different animal...
3rd in all time premier league goalscorers
Wayne is up there with Sir Bobby, Georgie Best, Duncan Edwards as absolute world class legends. I am thankful that I’ve seen all 4 in their prime!
@@TheBlebski really? I didn't see the other 3. How does Wayne compare?
United fans worshiped him, everyone else feared him. The best English player in my lifetime by far. Great video.
One of the most complete forwards of all time could play every position on the park better than anyone
Thanks for expressing my thought about Wazza

Complete Striker. Hits the ball well with both feets. Fearless . LEGEND.
Briliant compilation..
@@srijandgupta Thank you! :)

Thx for putting this video together. I followed his whole career, and im shocked that so many ppl think he was overrated these days.
Lol really they should look at this video Pele Messi so many legends talking about him he was a monster
Thank you for the video. You made my day. I was always sad that he is underrated and undervalued but now I see the best players in football history chose him as favorite.
Pele, Maradona choosing him is something special🔥🔥🔥
Rooney deserves a statue at Old Trafford.

The phrase world class is used too often, but Wayne was the definition of it.
bad as manager ,
beast while playing .
remember his name . Wayne Rooney ! 🔥
Imagine Pele saying that about you.... 🔥😍
As a 90s kid growing up in my prime Rooney without doubt is the best player and my favourite
3:01 Rest in peace Kev!
❤❤
very good video mate
@@bornamriki Thanks very much! 👍
ONE OF THE BEST EVER
Rooney is the last of a dying breed that we'll never see again. It was a privilege & a honour to have watched a supported his career.
MUFC We ❤ U 🐐💯
Thank you for this video very very much you made my day week months everything....lots of love❤❤❤
Nicely edited video, you have real skill.
Liverpool fan here amazing player never seen a striker work so. Hard for is team wish he played for Liverpool
Please more videos like these. Love the music background and content for each player.
One of those players we didn't quite appreciate until they are gone. As an englishman there are others, the likes of ashley cole and even players like ledley king etc. As for foreign players busquets comes to mind.
Great video
Thank you 👍
Truly a generational talent❤ I just knew he was special the very first time I saw him play. Absolute legend❤
Ladies and Gentlemen, ..... WAYNE ROONEY
GReat video. A,ways been my favourite all time England player
4:47 the last minute goal vs the great AC Milan in the 2007 UCL semi finals for me was Rooney's best goal ever.
Big night gets a big finish from Wayne Rooneyyyy
Still remember that entire game to this day. The legends on the pitch. Maldini Seedorf Kaka Scholes Pirlo Rooney Ronaldo Giggs and Rooney and Kaka were the best players that night. United won 3-2 but it’s a shame they lost the return leg 3-0. But next year in 2008 they won the UCL.
Remember watching that game at my neighbours, we all shouted when he scored !
@@mbatonakamuaruuma2674 But I watched the return leg at San Siro in horror. Lol
Ohhh the nights I stayed up just to see him play. A complete Team Player. You would see him all over the pitch. Greatness that has not been given its due. Sad 😞

Brilliant editing well done!

Hands down the best player I've ever watched. Yes I've seen Messi at OT in 08 and watched Ronnie on a regular basis
Great work on this video!
What a fantastic video. Thank you
Loved Wazza. Was a key signing to keep Fergies success going. World class. Thank god he loving in the north west of England! 🙏🏼
Great video 🙌
So glad as a United fan to have witnessed him live at a number of games. A phenomenal player and I don’t say that lightly. He could’ve scored much had he been more selfish and didn’t sacrifice his natural position to play in other positions. I cannot praise this player enough and he needs to have a statue outside Old Trafford
Grow up watching him as a Man united fun rooney my childhood friends used to name after him 😂
Argentine here, i loved rooney.
He was street footballer. Not an academy type, where they’re taught to pass sideways and backwards all the time. Street footballers you play by instinct. Your mum shouts “right it’s time to be indoors” someone shouts “winning goal” and you make your side wins.
My favourite united player. I also have plans of naming my kid after him
Best striker the world has ever witnessed.
The beginning of my move affair with football and United is all due to this man. Absolutely irreplaceable.
Wazza is my 🐐
what an amazing player, i hated him growing up cos he scored against us every game, but what a monster of a player
Broke my heart when he left us and went to UTD but he's one of the greatest players of all time. He's top 10 of all time.
i really good directed video. Congrats.
Thank you very much!
The way wayne rooney is treated these days is crazy
-He had everything you need to ball

He doesn’t get the credit he deserves. He was the best English footballer by a mile. He could do everything!
Song @5:30? Great video
The legend Wayne Rooney, not only a world class player but also a real world class teammate ❤ GGMU
Always gave 100% , even on an off day. A superb footballer who was very unselfish and gave his all for England , Man Utd and Everton. How Man Utd could do with a couple of players like him now.
Been watching religiously since I was 12 (2002). I was amazed by him, he played out of position for many many games in his career. Always wondered if they had just kept him as a #9 how many more goals he would’ve scored.
It was a priceless to see Rooney in a Derby Co shirt, totally world class even at the end of his career.
“Its Wayne Rooney, it’s inevitable” pretty much sums up his career
the impact on the pros or legends is incredible
Ronaldo was allowed to be so good because Rooney allowed him to be so good and did the running and hard work for him
A true united fan won't put anyone over Wazza, he was that good. Best player to ever wear United Shirt❤ Rooooooooney!
Pele talking about Rooney like that as a Chelsea fan he was special talent 🙌🏾
What a player
I have tons of United Shirts, supporting them since 2007 and I only have with a player name i.e Wazza. Wayne Rooney is such a legend......Saw my mate the other day....He said to me, He saw the white Pele❤❤❤❤

Ultimate beast. One off
That’s my 🐐, love that lad 💯🙌👹🔴⚪️⚫️
There are few players who can be classed as great. Rooney was a great. Theres very few strikers better than him. Very few. Ronaldo R9 prime only
Wazza 🔥🔥🔥
When he broke Sir Bobby's record, I was so emotional. ❤ I know united has become shit now but I'm glad I fell in love with this club. GGMU
Rooney can do everything
I love Ruud's manc accent! 😂👊
I have been a Manchester United fan all my life I have seen players play for this club and players playing for other clubs in the premier league but without a shadow of a doubt wayne rooney for me is the greatest premier league and English player of all time he is my idol alongside David Beckham and Cristiano Ronaldo but Wayne Rooney is the greatest in my opinion
Just imagine what it would feel like having players like pele and George best singing your praises 😮 go on Rooney 🫶🏻
The best 🔥🔥🔥
He was the Brock Lesnar of Football. Absolute Beast👊
