Rooney retires from international football

[The_One]

With immediate effect rooney has announced his retirement

Great timing and done in the right way imo

Will prolong his playing career and everton will get the benefits, international break will give him crucial weeks to rest his ageing body

Thanks for the memories wayne

greatest player my arse, what did he ever do for England on the real world stage when it counted like in world cups or Euros ? He did nothing, he should have been dropped from England years ago but none of the managers had any balls to do the right thing and effectively put the national squad back years..........

Blinkers....

What has any england player done on the big stage? Infact its his goals that got us to tournaments!

At euro 2004 he was our best player until he got injured then it scuppered our tournament


14 years wearing the 3 lions

Greatest ever england scorer

Says it all show some respect

F

which is what I said earlier, he was a very good club player and that's it. He was never and will never be world class. World class = players like Maradona and Pele who actually lead the respective countries to sensational world cup wins. Rooney has done nothing for England apart from belittle and abuse the very fans that pay his wages. To any of you that have your tongues buried up his arse please justify how he is world class when compared to people like Maradona, Pele and even Ronaldo who has more international accolades in his cabinet than Rooney.

Your argument has no basis

Paulo maldini
Roberto baggio
Zico
Marco van basten
Platini
Johan cruyff


None of those won world cup

Guess they werent world class either?
