Player’s union chief Gordon Taylor believes that Manchester United star http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Wayne-Rooney-c36736 has much more to offer than just goals and has hailed the front man’s maturity this season.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 International Rooney has often been criticized in the past for being a hot head, which has lead to him being sent off or booked consistently.
The 26-year-old was given his marching orders against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Montenegro-c2959 during the Three Lions’ match with them and is also set to miss the opening stages of this summer’s European championships.
Furthermore, his attitude has affected his performances on the pitch and Rooney had been on the decline during October and November.
However the player has rallied back emphatically and has seemingly answered his critics after inspiring United to the title once more.
The club lay in 2nd position behind Manchester City in the standings only a few months back, but the former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Everton-c39043 forward has been in fine form and has netted 31 times this season, to send the Red Devils back to the summit of the Premier League.
With his goals, he is also set to match his highest tally ever in a professional season but according to Player’s Union boss Gordon Taylor, the attacker has more to his game than just scoring.
Speaking to reporters, the official said that while Rooney was one of the world’s deadliest strikers, he could still influence a game with his on-field efforts, which was down to him maturing a lot in the past few years.
"I think there has been a maturity coming into his game - you could fit him in various areas, like many top players,” he said.
"His goal scoring is his top quality but he does have that ability to do a http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684 for the team and I think his commitment is top class. You still tend to think of him as a young player, like a young bull when he is rampaging through a defence - there is no
better sight - because he has everybody on the back foot."
With Rooney in their ranks, Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson’s men are closing in on their 20th title and should lift the trophy come May, if things remain unchanged in the standings.
