   I don’t agree Joe

   Arsenal still have the likes of Fabregas and Eduardo who score goals and Liverpool have Gerrard.

   I agree,personally i feel united need a world class midfeilder ot go with fletcher and a good left winger to support rooney and lastly simon kjaer to replace evans so in basic terms kjaer,hamsik and di maria must be signed

   Joe the same was said for the previous 2-3 seasons about Ronaldo. The United system is designed to make goals for the spearhead. This year it is Ronny but the rest of the team make the goals and prevent the goals. This year Evans (until tonight) Evra, Fletcher and Valencia have been excellent and as for VDS – tonight said it all.

   One man team and nothing without XYZ is lazy and does not reflect the way a team and United in particular works at present.

   thats so funny every year this is said about one of our players. Its Beckham then it is Ruud then it Roy then it is Ronaldo Then it is Rooney its a joke . Don`t you see the obvious it doesn`t matter which one leaves if it is one or 2 players the neck of the team is always there . There is older player who learn the younger one and bring them the hunger which is the most important factor of all. If you really think that one player is all United is you must be totally confused and maybe watching another sport.

   United without Rooney, AC without Ronaldinho, Chelsea without Drogba, Liverfail without G&T, Real without Ronaldo. I could go on, but time and time again this article comes up and time and time again I find myself shaking my head about such a pointless story. Big teams have big players, that’s why they are big teams. If Barca lost Xavi/Iniesta how would they cope?

   Rooney is finally living up to his potential, United are (much to most peoples frustration) still proving to be one of the teams to beat. I don’t see this article as anything other than provacation to be honest. Yes he is scoring the goals, yes he is playing fantastically at the moment, but don’t you think that United would have somebody or purchased someone were it not for Rooney? Same old same old articles. Tell you what, save this arcticle and replace Rooneys name when another player carries the team. Hughes, Ince, Beckham, Staam, RVN, Keane, Ronaldo. Big players come and go, I’m off to celebrate a great win. United live forever. LUHG.

   Steve B,

   I see where you’re coming from but all the teams you mentioned all have other real top class players.

   AC have Pato, Chelsea have Lampard, Liverpool have Torres, Real have Kaka. If Barca lost Xavi or Iniesta, they still have world class players like Messi and Ibrahimovic.

   If United lost Rooney, United have no one who can score 20 plus goals a season.

    Steve B, I totally agree with you!!! I cant believe that some bloggers still think this is a clever base for an article…

    Cathal: No, you dont see where he is coming from, you are just as blind as the author of this nonsense blogg…. As Steve B pointed out: HUGHES, INCE, BECKHAM, STAAM, RVN, KEANE, RONALDO, CANTONA, SOLSKJÆR, COLE, YORK and the list goes on….

    Wake up!

    its nonsense to say without one player we would be nothing. as many trophies we have won its not about one player. the days of cole, yorke, king eric, teddy, ruud, ole, becks and etc… its was always the story, then one leaves the name changes, we continue to role forward. if anything it sounds like another United hater that is mad that we can let go of the “best player” and still do well. Cheers to Rooney, may he never go to madrid!!!

    Cathal Breathnach, “If United lost {Rooney/RVN/Ronaldo/fill in the blanks}, United have no one who can score 20 plus goals a season”
    Yes we will miss Rooney as much as we miss Ronnie. Your argument is that none of the other players are capable of rising up to the challenge either because the lack the technique or the desire. When Ronnie left we thought the same thing as much as that happened when Nistelrooy left. We have always found another outlet. We haven’t won so much because we were/are one man teams!

    hehehe let s face it, rooney’s a playmaker, and a dream finisher, he creates opportunities and scores goals like CF should, but, if they sold him, i really can’ t think of another who’ d fill his shoes, he’s about the best CF in the world, this from a guy who hates both UTD. and him, i guess i gotta go hands down n give Steve the nodd

    sorry i meant giving Cathal and Steve is right, Utd. keep winning to the frustration of most, but, hehehe, huffing and puffing against an AC Milan side which have to stop and change their dentures every twenty minutes..and winning of course..is something..!!!

    Just as many years people have said this about us, if we sold roo, we would have someone else. we always do. Fergie knows where to go. when cantona they were worried, when we sold RVN they were worried, when Ronny was sold they were worried. We always have world class players, we have a world class team. United will always be a force.
