Wayne Rooney

Wazza, or Wayne Rooney, is what you'd have to call a complete footballer. Passing, tackling, shooting & heading are all things that Manchester United & England's most prolific goalscorer had in his locker.

UNTOUCHABLE: Wayne Rooney's game was based on his power and speed.

As a 16-year-old, Rooney scored a world-class goal against Arsenal to let the Premier League know a future star was on its way. His ball control and instincts on the pitch made him one of the most dangerous strikers to ever play for Manchester United and England. Rooney played alongside some of football's greats but it was his partnership with Cristiano Ronaldo that saw them both score goals galore.
