Further evidence that Rolling Humour isn't even worthy of being in the same sentence as Scholes humour. The poor lad's gone downhill since he took a battering a few days ago

No, I understand the game more than you cunts. You lot would struggle to name aspects of the game in which Tevez is superior to Rooney but I could come up with shitloads such is my insight and observational ability. Just wait until later. |

Tevez biggest quality is workrate and Rooney matches him in that, there probably equal in terms of finishing as well but everything else Rooney is better at. If you asked all the defenders in the prem who they'd rather face at least 90% would say tevez |

Areas Tevez excels in more than Rooney: * More of a winner * More instinctive * More adept in tight areas * Better at reacting to loose balls * Better at poaching * Better at holding the ball up * Harder to dispossess - defenders are scared to commit to him and Tevez is very comfortable in possession like this * He's more efficient in his donkey work, pressuring defenders much more effectively * More emphatic in front of goal * Doesn't lose possession as cheaply * He allows himself time on the ball due to my seventh bullet point, giving him time to produce neat passages of play, as evidenced with several clever flicks over the two legs When the score was 3-3 on aggregate he nodded a loose ball on and turned into space in a flash only to be denied by a last ditch Rio Ferdinand block. Such a sharp piece of play from Tevez, picture in his head seconds before he headed it. |

Lol it's not workrate, he's great at that and gets all the plaudits from MOTD for it (hence why most of you cite it as his best attribute), but his best attributes are his strength and turn of pace. |

It's a very close call but Rooney just takes it for me. |

I think Scholes has turned a corner with the wizard and remembers why he dubbed him world class 18 months ago.

Yep, great turn of pace, really sharp off the blocks and can shift the ball quickly too. Rooney beats him in crossing and long balls though. |

No, he was never great for United, last season especially when he was shit, but for City he's a different player. You'd never see him churning out the performances he is now in a United shirt. |

Rooney. If this was done when both were United players Rooney would walk it. People hate United and hate Rooney so those people will vote for Tevez even through their own idiocy. |
