tevez is argentinian, but rooney in the last 2 years had increased his creativity, he has a lot of assists, maybe because fergie played him a lot as an ss. He is better than tevez in every day of the week, and when i'm thinking at his age, i'm sure he'll be a ballon d'or winner...too bad he's english and won't win nothing for the nt

Perhaps he means dribbling defenders? Tevez has alot more skill and technique in his game.
In terms of taking players on and in terms of close ball control Tevez wins. But in terms of finishing*, hard work, link up play, vision and shooting, Rooney is the better player.

* Even though finishing is not one of Rooney's strong points he is still a better finisher than Tevez

Rooney is in the top 5 offensive players on the planet as far as I am concerned. Along with Messi, Aguero, Ronaldo, Torres. His creativity and flair are both phenomenal for an gritty englishman. Very rare to see such talent in british blood...By far the most technically gifted brit I have ever seen. Its a siblime mix of extreme determination, a serious passion for playing and winning, and world class talent. As with the others on my top 5 list, ANY team would be glad to have him...Nothing to do with hype. My opinion is based on watching him play quite regularly since he was a teenager for the toffees...

Most gifted Brit you have seen? Paul Gasgoine was twice the player Rooney is. Rooney has flair? how do we define flair? because he does not have flair like Messi,Aguero,Kaka and Ronaldo.

Btw my boy is leading the scoring chats, Defoe- 14 goals.

Dude, your list sucks. Zlatan Ibrahimovic is way better than Rooney.
