Rooney's world class but he doesn't score massive amounts of goals

Rooney is the lad to build UTD round now, if another striker does come in, I don't want Rooney shunted out left side again, cos if he gets naffed off and leaves, then we are in trouble, never mind this overated crap. Eto at 28 is going to want games, so either him or RussB fave ever player

is on the bench or it's Rooney on the wing.
Rooney was the best player in the Prem for the last few weeks of the season, he has really matured and next season he will start to show what he is about, I think people forget he is only 23, 26-28 when most players hit their peak, I think he is already there.
Not seen enough of Eto to judge, as long as Rooney is first choice, they can buy who they want.
Wonder what he gets paid? I know we have a wage structure at UTD, but the top earners are hardly poor. I assume some of them are on over £100,000? He can't be on much more than that at Barca.

As a side, was just looking at goal ratios on Wiki.....
Rooney P49 S20. Berbatov P43 S14. Tevez P51 S15.
I think Carlos n Kia need to check some statistics before they make feeble excuses as to why they left us.
