    I just looked at who the record goal score is and it says Rooney.

    You can't alter them facts

    So you think being a clubs record goalscorer also makes them their best ever player?

    There's been plenty at OT that were better players yet scored fewer goals and spent less time there, but yep, its good to see a scouser break the clubs scoring records in the league and Europe.:emoticon-0105-wink:

    Doesn't mean he was their best ever player.

    Ah, leave him alone. It's nice that some people have such a simplistic view of life. :)

    "is"?

    You reckon Roonaldo is their best ever based on his breaking the scoring records, as an individual player and not based on trophies won I'd say Best, Law, Charlton, Cantona, Ronaldo, Giggs to name but a few.
    Or....is Traore better than Cantona and or Ibra based on him having a CL winners medal?

    No, you gave a list. Afraid to put your view down without a list of escape clauses

    Don't think any united fan would put Rooney near the top of best players list. Even in his prime few years we're still better players than him in that team like ronaldo, giggs, scholes. Thats before you even go back to some of the oldest like Keane, schemeichel etc

    Saying who is "The Best" is a silly game anyway.
    Like saying what's the best film or piece of music - there's no definitive answer and it's just one more thing to argue about, for those who get off on such things.

    Best is generally accepted as the best player.

    Before my time so can't really judge though.

    my opinion Charlton
    i would argue that it is by some way as well. Best may have been the more "talented" (though i'm of the opinion people mistake style for substance) but only managed to produce at the top level for a few years - i remember seeing him & Bobby Moore play for Fulham which was just bizarre

    Have all you lot not missed the fact that PJ is living vicariously through Rooney's achievements as they reflect on Everton marginally?

    Its not like anything in his own club could possible make him proud so stop denying him this thrice removed feeling of pride.....

    So, we should be proud of him four-times removed because he's a fellow Scouser (and went to the same school as me), even though he's a bluenose/manc, bad-tempered birdbrain with a face like a puckered arse?
