Wayne’s in a World Class of his Own
How good was Wayne Rooneys performance against Argentina? How good is Wayne Rooney? And how much better can he get?
Its hard to believe this boy is barely 20 years old. He has awesome pace, genuine courage, formidable power and a superb competitive instinct. Add to that tremendous technique including a remarkable range of passing, powerful shooting and heading ability and a delightful touch, whether hes controlling the ball or trying to chip the keeper.
All that has been apparent for some time now and its more than enough to strike terror into opponents even the Argies. But if the Argentinians believed they could exploit what they perceived as Rooneys fragile temperament they were in for a shock, because it has been evident in recent weeks that Wayne is fast learning to control his aggression. And far from damaging his game, as many who should know better had predicted, he has enhanced it. He is now a player who has everything and can do everything.
And as long as he stays fit and focused, that includes winning the World Cup for England.
