Guest firetotheworks Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Schmeichel Neville Ferdinand Stam Irwin Ronaldo Keane Scholes Giggs Van Nistelrooy Rooney Bench: Van der Sar, Vidic, Beckham, Cantona, Cole. Cantona's exclusion will probably get me some heat. I'm not even a Man United fan and I find Cantona's exclusion laughable. He was in my all time PL team ffs, not just my Man United one. Ludicrous that he's not in your Man United team when he was voted like 7th best Man United player of ALL TIME by Man United fans. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Froggy Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 He was unreal like but I'm not dropping either of Rooney or Van Nistelrooy. Rooney will be considered our greatest of all time when he retires so who can you drop? Keane? Trying to get some balance here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Froggy Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Will Rooney fuck be considered your greatest of all time FFS He's already up there like. If he hadn't asked for a transfer request a lot would probably already have him top. You have a Man Utd bench without fucking Solskjær on it? What? He's my favourite player. Big difference.

You have an all-time Man Utd bench. It's prime material for a Solskjær inclusion on so many levels, even if he's obviously not one of the all time greats.

Froggy Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Just because he's been about for ages, he's not close to loads of your players just in my life time It's not just longevity ffs. He'll be our all time top scorer and assist holder while being one of the most hard working and versatile players we've ever had. He's incredible. He'll break England's records as well and has a small shot at becoming the all time Premier League top scorer despite barely playing as a striker.

ponsaelius Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 You've had like 5 Ballon D'or winners or something and probably plenty more who have been close to one, Rooney has never come close.

Not doubting Rooney's quality but he's been playing since he was like 16, he's nothing on George Best, man. You're talking about lists where you say he's on top, but I"ve just had a look and on he's nowhere near in most of them, he's like 15th. Most have either Best, Charlton or Giggs at the top...

I know Man Utd fans that would have him sold tomorrow tbh. I don't think you should look at that award for justification. We've had many players that are considered among the best and have never come close. Rooney has actually come closer than the likes of Giggs and Scholes I think, while a lot of footballers consider Scholes to be the best player they've ever played with.

Froggy Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 Surely you know about how ridiculous George Best was though? Of course. It'll always get heat from some people going against the Holy Trinity but I just think Rooney will be considered our best ever by the majority. It could just me absolutely loving Rooney and his style of play of course. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
maybe_next_year Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 I like the idea of this though, an all time XI for each team. It would have to be Barca for me, Messi, Cruyff, Maradona, Ronaldo, Xavi...that's 5 of the very best players of all time right there. Madrid would be class too. Zidane, Ronaldo, Hierro, Di Stefano, Owen. Best XI to play together has to be Milan though. http://i3.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons/original/000/010/334/U-WOT-M8.jpg Good to see Colback looking well.
