Messi is class but plays with Ronaldonio, Eto.
I don't see him in the CL, what is he?
Rooney is a big game player, he raised his game against the best when needed to get a result against AC Milan in the semi finals.
He also scored home and away against Roma in the 1/4 final.
He is in the top 5 assists and goals in the premier league and al ...[text shortened]... e consistently maybe Manchester United, Chelski or Liverpool will show an interest and buy him.
You think Messi would rather play for Liverpool than Barcelona??

Why would he go to the Premier if he already plays in the [b]best league of the world? π[/b]
Our teams always beat Barcelona, have you not noticed.
Real Madrid have won nothing for 4 years.
We have the best players: Rooney, Ronaldo, Schvchenko, Lampard, Henry, Gerrard, Terry, Drogba, Robben, Cech, Scholes, Giggs, Ballack.
English teams have all the money, we buy who we want.
Messi will play for United or Chelski soon if he wants success in Europe.
Spain, you can keep on buying our 'past it' players like Beckham and Van Nistelrooy. Henry will probably play in Spain in 2 years time when he's 30.
Times have changed my friend.
The European order is now:-
England
Italy
Spain (maybe if Ronaldinio loses some weight and Messi does something in a big game and Madrid buy 6 new galacticos).

You're right, maybe Rooney is the second coming.
Remember AC Milan have the best defense back 4 in the world and have only conceded one goal away from home in the CL this season.
Kaka played great against Manchester Uniteds weak defense.
Rooney, on his own, at 21 years of age, against the best defensive side in the world has opened the door to the Champions League Final for Manchester United.
Originally posted by shavixmirLiverpool are a great team with a great manager and a history that betters even Barcelona's. Liverpool are desparate for decent wide players, especially one that plays both flanks. He would be loved by some of the most knowledgable and loyal fans in the world. He could also learn something from Steven Gerrard for whom Messi is just a pimple on his bum.

In saying all that though it is very hard to leave a great club like Barcelona. What a ground, what great fans and what great football.

Rooney is a good player but I must say that Dida was has faults on the first and third goal where he should have been covered his side.
By the way Messi is just another category, comparing him to Rooney is not possible.
He has it all, he is a big game player.
He single handedly beat Ac Milan on Tuesday.
Messi is awesome attacking with the ball.
But Rooney has everything, goals, amazing vision and assists, he tracks back and defends all the time, he scores amazing goals.
Did you not see his second goal against Milan, amazing considering he was competing against Nesta in thr 91st minute, what a strike.
He is so strong you can't knock him off the ball, he can play in any position on the pitch and play at a world class level.
Messi plays in a slow paced league, he would never be able to compete consistently against an English or Italian style team.
The quality of play in Spain is too slow paced.
Any league that Diego Forlan can score goals in must be an easy league to play in.
Where was Messi when Barcelona played Chelsie?
Messi is class, but Rooney is destined to be the greatest player since Maradona.
Be careful though, if Messi gets better, he will sign for Chelski.
Everyone said Carlos Tavez was world class like Messi, but he is just a good talent.
Take Ronaldinho away and Messi will not carry the team.
Rooney can lead any team in the world.
England have the best 4 best players in the world.
Rooney, Gerrard, Henry and Ronaldo.
Originally posted by Rooney Once a BlueMan you’re hilarious! Rooney only got his 1st against AC due to a awesome ball from Scholes and it was a pretty scrappy finish. His second was a pretty good shot but Dida made a mess of it and so did the AC defence. Other than that he really did jack all for most of the game. He is really good but you simply cannot compare him to the likes of Messi, Kaka, Ronaldinho, Henry etc.
