Rooney's well overated. I wouldn't classify him as world-class and worth £30 million. If he wants to become really good, he should move away from Everton. People only say he is good because England are kinda desperate for another good player to improve their team. Owen's still a much better player and was a better player than Rooney when he was 18.

for me rooney is much better than owen at 18. remener he's not always playing regularly for everton, because rightly his body and mind isn't ready for constant playing in the prem.
