The Guardian<\/a> quotes Mourinho as saying of Rooney.<\/p>\n\u201cWayne is, and has been, England\u2019s best player for over a decade\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\nhttps:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=lxqvssg3do0<\/p>\n
In a highly distinguished career Rooney has played 111 times for England and scored 52 goals. Add 520 games and 245 goals for Manchester United and 17 in 77 at Everton and we are surely talking about a true Premier League titan.<\/p>\n
We will probably never again see the explosive Wayne Rooney who used to demolish defences for Manchester United but he seems to be evolving into a top quality midfielder in the Paul Scholes mould.<\/p>\n
With England having so many good forwards to choose from for EURO 2016 we think that Roy Hodgson would be well advised to play him in the engine room where he can control the tempo of games and ping balls around the field with great precision – a talent that no one else seems to possess in the current England squad.<\/p>\n
But it will be very interesting to see where he plays for Manchester United next season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
