Wayne Rooney: A Force To Be Reckoned With

He gave the word temper a whole new meaning. If you can remember, during the World Cup in Germany, Wayne was substituted for another player so that he doesn’t end up aggravating his injury since he had just become fit recently.

Sven Gorran Errikson, former England national coach, did this so that Rooney would be fit enough to play in other more important games, but did Wayne want to know? No.

Immediately he got to the benches, he made it his job to make the World know he wasn’t happy. He threw everything he got his hands on in the air and was seen uttering something that any one can lip read.

In another story on the young striker, he was involved in a scuffle in a night club in England, after a man made some unkind remarks about his girlfriend and Wayne some how saw it fit to punch him in the face.

That used to be the World's view of Wayne Rooney. These days though, he has become a really mature and well-mannered player. I mean the more I watch him, the more I admire him. He has changed and now the goal net is the only thing complaining about him.

In a game Manchester United played against Portsmouth, Rooney managed to lift and curve the ball in such a way that even Portsmouth's goalkeeper, David James couldn’t see it coming. It was a classic goal, and I do mean classic.

In another encounter between Man U and Watford, Rooney did a one two with Henrik Larsson and finally passed it back to Larsson and he coolly finished it. He is not only a goal poacher but also a playmaker in my own terms.

He even lobbed Watford's goalkeeper from close range to score and we all know how hard it is to lob someone from close range and get it right on the mark. He is also known to have a very powerful right foot, which he often uses to get goalkeepers in check.

He is on the fast track to stardom and I say he is a legend in the making for England. I applaud the young man for quelling his anger and also by channeling it in the right way or in the back of the net if I do say so myself.
