Nick, Rooney is clearly superior to Defoe, as simple as that, period.
As a player, maybe so as a goalscorer no way. Then again I watch my National team and the premiership week in week out, but hey what should I know. Speak to 95% of the English and they would say Defoe deserves the nod ahead of Ronney in the national set up. Why is that?

95% huh? You polled them one by one did you? :D

And ooh, this supposed big scoring advantage of Defoe, its what he is better at right? When Rooney is waaaaaaaaay better then him in every other way, this scoring ability, it oughta be a huge difference if its supposed to make up for the rest, shouldnt it?. Well, have you glanced at the goalscoring chart recently?


1 Didier Drogba Chelsea 13
1 Jermain Defoe Tottenham 13
3 Wayne Rooney Man United 12

4 Fernando Torres Liverpool 11
5 Darren Bent Sunderland 10
5 Louis Saha Everton 10​


OMG what a hugely superior scorer! :eek:

One goal or not he is still ahead, Rooney plays for Manchester United, Defoe bagged goals for fun at Tottenham and Portsmouth hardly awesome teams. Have your opinion Os and I'll have mine. For me Rooney should never ever don the England shirt again after his disgusting acts at the Euro'. For me I hope he breaks his legs and does not travel with England to the World CUp because we will do better without him.

I will continue to stick to my beliefs with Defoe being better than Rooney.

Now, I've to go find the appropriate thread :D

Just like most foreigners who take note of the EPL only ever hear of 4 or 5 players.
Yes, surely that must be why Rooney is considered to be considerably superior to Defoe, I mean, in my case, that must defenitely be it, I havent watched EPL weekly for 14 year or something right? Who cares about that. It must all be the hype, nothing else. Silly me.

I did not mention names, because I know certain posters on this site follow the EPL alot, Alas you and Fred. You just took my post out of context and took it to a degree I cannot be bovthered going to. Rooney is overrated by Foreign people and Manchester United fans. FACT. People on here underrate Defore I put that down to not watching him thats what my statement was aimed at. Try coming to England and talking to a few English people Osman and see what you find.

Heck most English Manchester United fans, were saying they don't need Ronaldo anymore because they have Rooney and he is better. If you ever come to Manchester Os, I'll glady take you into my local pub when United are on and show you what I mean.

I rate Defoe for who he is and said so often ( even if he is not a top player, and not proven in top level, not comparable to Rooney at all). Its not about nuances and overrated this or that, its FAR FAR from being overrated to be deemed better then Defoe. And Rooney has had the brand of being overrated so much that he gotten so much stick for it, to the point he was bit underrated. He is partly overrated, like many top players (doesnt deserve to be in top 10 balon), but fact of the matter is, he is a real quality player, as simple as that. Defoe doesnt reach up to him, and goalscoring is not much of an advantage when he has 1 goal more. He has more goals then Torres too, and that doesnt mean squat in valueing the players.


As I said, its about nuances, and you clearly shown you have intense dislike and biasm against him, illustrated with the above post. Not liking him, for whatever reason, is ok, I dont care, but trying to belittle him and say Defoe is better, is another matter.
