Ashish Seth yep, he has always sacrificed himself for the team if he had just played he’s whole carrer up front as a main striker non stop he would have like 300 premierleague goals now
@@hoppeananc not at the same level not now for sure. A bit better? Dude he's a playmaker not just a goalscorer.And you are wrong rooney was up there sadly the sacrifices he had to do and fitness cost him
The bible says a prophet isn't welcome in his own home country...it's so right that book about everything on life...look at scholes disrespected by his own country, CR7 disrepceted by his own countrymen the most look at mourinho as an example, look at Messi disrespected by Maradonna. I have seen Tamil people disrespect other tamil people the worst.
@@smullaney84 actually the majority of our laws and constitutions here in the west were founded on the bible and its teachings. The west had a pretty strong christian foundation. The faith has millions of followers around the world who would beg to differ. My point was that people in their own countries are not respected in portugal when CR7 did not win the world cup in 2022. They burned his jerseys in the street. Messi also prior to his world cup win had his family members harassed and his jerseys burned in previous world cups to me there is a fine line between passion for football and being ungrateful that these countries were given the best players arguably in football history is sad in of itself.
I miss him, my childhood was Wayne Rooney. That amaizing player. He gived every match the best, that is why I like him so much. Amaizing player, for me the best..
There have been some of the finest players in football and indeed rooney as well as ibra are among them...but wayne has proved time n again that he is the one who can make other players develop all along n be a true team player ready to sacrifice everything..
Is true, Rooney never get credit he deserve in Europe n that's why stars prefer it here in states cause everybody been treated equal with level of respect
No, the stars don't prefer it in the states. When they are no longer good enough to play in Europe, they either retire, move to China for money or move to the MLS to be able to live in America. The MLS will never be even close to the top leagues in Europe unless things drastically change. I mean they aren't even in the Champions League. The MLS is literally a retirement home for footballers.
What are u saying . Rooney is the most known English player and everybody credits him. Do u know united had the biggest fan base in the world ??? Nobody cares about players in the states they are Already forgotten and over declined . The league is a joke over there
Rooney is the most versatile player I've ever seen....play him as a defender and he won't disappoint you...and we've all seen him in front scoring goals or creating chances. He was a lone front man in Man Utd when David Moyes took charge. It was sad to see Rooney play with other useless 10 players at the later stage of his career.
and people call Zlatan arrogant. He is actually very down to the earth guy who respects and sees true values. he is one of the greatest of all time, but above all of that he is amazing person. I love him so much 🥰🦁
Zlatan is a very good person, a quality in his character, him and Rooney are friends now , that time at Utd went very well when they partnered up then he retired .
People still call Ibrah arrogant? They dont understand when hes a clown and when hes serious. This is a serious Ibrah talking and theres absolutely no arrogance to be seen. The thing with Rooney is that he stayed in MU for better or worst. Had him transfer to lets say Bayern, Juve, Milan when MU started their transition period he would had lot more trophies to show and more people would recognize him for what he was, even by having CR7 close by took a lot of his shine away. But even during ups and downs in MU he always played at top lvl. Starting pro so young and keeping it up as a star for so long is something only the greatest do.
Call that sacrifice? Wayne never wanted recognition or anything extra other than his big wage and the buzz of winning lol He just plays to his strengths. Still my fav player ⚽💪👿
1:35 I like how zlatans having a go at Cr7 coz he’s his long time rival but even he knows that’s not true because sure Rooney sacrificed for Cr7 defensively but going forward all the work was most certainly not done by Rooney. First of all Cr7 assisted Rooney plenty of times so it’s not like Rooney was never given the chance to score goals alongside Cr7. Secondly , if you look back and you watch cr7’s best goals at Man Utd , most of them don’t even involve Rooney. His classic goals,free kicks and long range strikes etc. Of course Rooneys assists are part of the reason Cr7 scored so many goals in his last 3 seasons at Man Utd but still the main reason was Cr7’s own ability and most of the work was done by himself.
Rooney was the engine going forward. If you watched all the games and not just the highlights you can see it more easily. Rooney would play out wide some games to accommodate CR7. CR7 was not lazy, but he was individually driven, Rooney was team driven! Instead of secretly disliking and competing with Ronaldo's ability he nurtured it. He said for ages that Ronaldo was the best player in the world, when I still believed Rooney was the best player at the club. Very unselfish.
@@DirtyJamesUK not saying Rooney wasnt unselfish .of course he was. I’m just saying he doesn’t deserve most of the credit for what Cr7 did at Man Utd. Cr7 himself does.
@@shaghilathar3588 definitely doesn't deserve most of the credit. He didn't give CR7 his talent. He did inspire him though. I believe Ronaldo got so good at finishing because that's what he had to do to steal the limelight from Rooney. He also helped him, by assisting and playing out of position, and showed CR7 a proper workrate. He let Ronaldo take the free kicks, when Rooney was good enough to have scored a free kick on his debut at United at just 18. Rooney was more lethal than Ronaldo for about 3-4 years and was a year younger.
@@DirtyJamesUK Up until 2006 I think you could say Rooney was the better player. From 2006 onwards it was cr7. I dont think the free kicks are an example of rooney being selfless though. cr7 didnt take free kicks back then for the same reason he does now. Back then he was a free kick specialist . Thats why he took them.
@@shaghilathar3588 so how did he become United's free kick taker when Rooney was the one taking them? Only because Rooney saw what Ronaldo could do in training and didn't compete against it. He was happy enough to step aside to let it flourish.
Only football people and those who have the technical understanding of the game will speak of Paul Scholes. We fans don't have a clue what a player he was my god!
Rooney was literally all over the pitch like Gerrad from a young age. He paid for his sacrifice because his legs had gone by Ferguson's last season. Whereas Messi had the luxury of just being an outlet player. He had no intention of defending. Hence the text to Pep and removal of Zlatan - while Zlatan was scoring for fun - from Barca.
Rooney was really let down by the England team and manager post 2006 World Cup by 2010 he wasn’t as explosive at the same time You had rob green as number 1
cristiano ronaldo at the age 33 and play highest level fan of ibra and rooney but ronaldo as something else at united his free kicks header long range shorts fast counter attack disappointment of ibra statemens rooney is not 50 % of ronaldo
When Zlatan says you are the perfect partner...YOU ARE A THE PERFECT PARTNER
One word that sums up Rooney is 'Sacrifice'
Ashish Seth yep, he has always sacrificed himself for the team if he had just played he’s whole carrer up front as a main striker non stop he would have like 300 premierleague goals now
100%true
That's true...who taught him that? Ferguson....
Rooney's more than that! He's passion is more! That overhead goal at City! Magic
Unselfish, sacrifice, modest. It all sums him up
Rooney a living legend. One of the greatest ever to play the game
I agree.
But it is important to consider the team as a whole also. Keepers, defenders, midfielders.
Rooney is actually a true team player⚽
Zlatan is a sincere person, his observation is right
You know rooney is world class when even zlatan is complementing him
He is the man of United who sacrificed a lot for the club not a selfish player did a lot for club long live Wayne Rooney
A 16-20 year old Wayne Rooney had the potential to be right up there with the likes of Messi. I don’t care what anyone says. He was unbelievable.
Ahhh SalmonSkinRole he had potential to be up there with Ronaldo, but nah Messi is magical. That’s a whole new tier
@@jermainefosu nah i belive messi too. Messi plays in la liga remember. PREMIER leauge is a different tier...
@@jermainefosu Ronaldo and Messi are the same lvl, w Messi being a bit better. Then there is the rest. This is fact. Not other level bullshit
16-20 Rooney was the best ever
@@hoppeananc not at the same level not now for sure. A bit better? Dude he's a playmaker not just a goalscorer.And you are wrong rooney was up there sadly the sacrifices he had to do and fitness cost him
It's insane how much Scholes gets talked about by elite players from other countries. Criminally underused and wasted by England.
The bible says a prophet isn't welcome in his own home country...it's so right that book about everything on life...look at scholes disrespected by his own country, CR7 disrepceted by his own countrymen the most look at mourinho as an example, look at Messi disrespected by Maradonna.

One great quality about Rooney is that, he can play through stress, through bleeding n through everything u can think of in sports.
Chambers Heros not broken bones
He was a pit bull. THE pit bull
Im with Zlatan(100%)
I miss him, my childhood was Wayne Rooney. That amaizing player. He gived every match the best, that is why I like him so much. Amaizing player, for me the best..
Zlatan never lies.
Beuken Phom lie never zlatan
Right...
Wazza... legend... end of.
He's gone up against Rooney now once and it was a glorious match ! DC vs Galaxy for the MLS cup would be a dope match
There have been some of the finest players in football and indeed rooney as well as ibra are among them...but wayne has proved time n again that he is the one who can make other players develop all along n be a true team player ready to sacrifice everything..
Rooney is a team player, and it's actually amazing to still have the stats that he has.
Painful to hear him say “When it was big United” 🙁
Is true, Rooney never get credit he deserve in Europe n that's why stars prefer it here in states cause everybody been treated equal with level of respect

This bloke right here is world class.
I never see Rooney happy in his life as he love it here in DC.
Wayne Rooney is truly a legend,hero and a perfect team player he will forever be my hero
and people call Zlatan arrogant. He is actually very down to the earth guy who respects and sees true values. he is one of the greatest of all time, but above all of that he is amazing person. I love him so much 🥰🦁
Did Zlatan just say "noone is perfect" o.0 MINDBLOWN
Rooney is a world class legend...
Zlatan knows best
I've loved Rooneys playing since the start. For me he is one of the greats.
I hope he comes backin English premier league,he still can win champions league and i trust him,he can do it,he's genius
Zlatan is a very good person, a quality in his character, him and Rooney are friends now , that time at Utd went very well when they partnered up then he retired .

Miss you Wayne Rooney 💔💔💔💔
I love the way Rooney plays, always did.
this is the longest Zlatan has spent talking about someone who isnt Zlatan.
That is what I am saying. This is the second time I have watched this interview.
Can someone get this man a glass of water for god sake
Lol.
I will be die, if Zlatan says something like that to me
**i will be dead** that's what you were trying to write. Have a good day 👍
And we are lucky to have him at DERBY CMON YOU RAMS and he has improved derby so much in midfield and our youngsters
Just a great guy
Zlatan, you are perfect!
Zlatan best striker in the world
That’s true Rooney didn’t get credit
Must be from before he joined Man U. Maybe add a date to the description?
Indeed.
0:29 - Ibra mention didn't have luck to play with Rooney.
Really appreciate if uploader to edit/put interview date.
@@nizam_mr old interview
@@nizam_mr 7:12 - thats even better right?
Rooney the only striker who can play as a perfect 8 master pass while he is never trained as midfielder💪
Without zlatan there would be no footballers. Thank you for Rooney and making this a sport!
Call that sacrifice? Wayne never wanted recognition or anything extra other than his big wage and the buzz of winning lol
He just plays to his strengths.
Still my fav player ⚽💪👿
Zlatan said its a ....fact.
This video is dated Oct 2018 but must have been recorded before 2017, because Zlatan played with Rooney 16/17 season at United.
1 words for RONNEY is TRUE PLAYER 📢📢📣📣⚽⚽
It is that interview when he was in another world..no ego, no GOD like self appreciation..🤣🤣
Ibra rooney...respect 🙌 legend

“Bald Rooney” version is my most favorite Rooney.
if this was a few days back, how come Zlatko says that Rooney is still playing @United? wut 6:50
I think it's a recycled video 😹😹😹
zlatan could pass for 27
rooney could pass for 47
lmfao you did not just
This is the truth
Didn't Zlatan and Rooney play together for during the 16/17 season? Why does he keep saying he doesn't know him personally or has never met him?
Mehboob Khan cuz this interview was made in 2015
I too had the same doubt :D
A legend, intelligant. Not bling, bling.
Zlatan to DC
Rooney Rooney Rooney
They played together at United for a season this was recorded before that
Premiership is hyped cos it’s the best end of…
Only football people and those who have the technical understanding of the game will speak of Paul Scholes.
We fans don't have a clue what a player he was my god!
I always thought about that. The partnership between Wayne Rooney and Cristiano Ronaldo was something else.
Then Carlos Tevez came into the scene.
Possibly the best front 3 they have had. @@GWOTKoolAid
Good men I hope to meet you one day in los Angeles
wHEN zLATAN SAYS YOUR THE PERFECT PARTNER he is actually looking into a mirror
True because he sees zlatan only nothing else. ..
But the timing is not good. If ibra. work with Rooney in early years, their chemistry is perfect.
Only if we signed Zlatan instead of Berbatov that time then it's possible
Give him water please
They did end up playing together after this interview
Somebody give GOD glass of WATER please!!!
INDEED SAID
I think LA will meet DC. I bet u it would be game to whatch. Stars on clash if DC meet LA. It would be fun to whatch
Chambers Heros and its the original MLS rivalry. The two winningest teams clashing. LA all day tho baby!!!
Its mad how much he seems to rate Rooney!
He seems to think he was as good as I did 😳. Blatantly a fan.

If Rooney join Barca in his prime and played with Messi that would of being magical
Why did he say he don't know him ? They played together in 2016-2017 season...
@Juha Nieminen bingo.
How old is this interview
2015
@@HXNZ99 but it is still worth a look.
Rly wanna know what he thinks after he played with rooney
I knew it, Zlatan is Batman
Rooney could play anywhere in the pitch and be the best player. He is the epitomy of a street footballer.
Facts
Still need permission from zlatan to finish the word
Wayne Rooney never gets the credit for helping Ronaldo to score the goals he did at United
He won more trophies than gerrad lampard and others
Can we just acknowledge that Ronaldo has played in England for a combined 7 years and Zlatan has better English than him.
WHEN WAS THIS INTERVIEW ??
Before Rooney broke england record for goals.
I wonder why Sir Alex did not sell Wayne when he asked for a transfer... any other player would have been sold on the spot
Why does he say he didn't have the luck to play with Wayne in the same team? Am I slow?
Rooney was really let down by the England team and manager post 2006 World Cup by 2010 he wasn’t as explosive at the same time You had rob green as number 1
How old is this interview?
Almost 7 years
Goodness Oyewale thought he looked young.
GoldenDelicious78 this interview is in 2015 making of rooney’s documentary so it’s 3 years
Arturs Filipovs yeah 3 years makes sense.
I think all the managers after SAF did him discredit by playing him out of position.
❤️
Kewl
More Legend than Ronny.
For me Rooney is much better than Messi and Ronaldo
If you have to win international tournaments to be considered an England great, there hasn't been a great English player in 50 years
Rooney lost is speed with injuries early, Ronaldo is past his 30s and will run circles around both!!!!
Yeah Rooney had a steep decline because of the position change by van gaal but still mastered passing thus making him world class till 2015
When Rooney famous at 16yeas old, Where is Ronaldo?
Rooney the only striker who can play as a perfect 8 master pass while he is never trained as midfielder
The 103 premiere league assists and over 150 in all competition says it all
Watch Rooney play in America it’s actuallly awful ho the players treat him. Celebrating but if it wasn’t for Rooney a ball they would never of scored.
Ew he is gross 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮
cristiano ronaldo at the age 33 and play highest level fan of ibra and rooney but ronaldo as something else at united his free kicks header long range shorts fast counter attack disappointment of ibra statemens rooney is not 50 % of ronaldo
