For Rooney, the World Cup, leaving him perhaps only sigh. Known as the head of the British brand, holding Manchester United [microblogging] top salary, Lu chubby in England [microblogging] Brazilian World Cup opener at the child still can not get the ball, scoring three tournament nine zero war, still in the embarrassing record continuation. Yesterday, in addition to the first half assists for his teammates somewhat amazing dedication, but Rooney frequently wasted opportunity in the second half, and even the face of the penalty area he missed the air doors. Mental balance, the corner was also kicked him on the stands, the fans after the game became a joke. Rooney has yet to "Iftar", England's attack and therefore often caught in the doldrums, this game defeat against Italy is proof. After two group matches, the team has been related to death, whether Rooney and his England will once again make the world a disappointment?
Rooney lost the ball still waiting for the first World Cup
Rooney was 28 years old, for a player, it is perhaps his career in the golden age. Available for the quadrennial World Cup, he has become participated in three World Cup veteran. Although Rooney had already contributed to England national team had 39 goals, but he never had to fulfill the mission of the striker in the World Cup stage, playing 684 minutes crop failure.
Two previous World Cup, did not give him too many good memories. 2006 World Cup in Germany, Rooney stamped on Carvalho sent off, England missed a good innings, he also suffered and seniors David Beckham [microblogging] like condemned; 10 World Cup in South Africa, his performance England fans were more boos.
Plus the game, actually, or 0 goals, such as the identity of its scoring rate is undoubtedly difficult Fifth England striker Wayne Rooney to match the history of the war three World Cup 9. The England on the 10th in yesterday's game, in addition to Sturridge sent assists to show a certain skill, other times completely free in the team's offensive system, the overall performance can only be described as abysmal .
On the shot, Rooney shot the whole game did not hit the goal range; On organization, limited Rooney iconic role in a wide range of transfer, as the team's playmaker, but did not sent a threatening Zhisai; On the ball, dribbling the ball right before the whistle in front of the penalty area he is bent on a plate, forcing the team to use the results of the Italian counterattack blocking foul wasted game time. Even more outrageous is that the second half of England get a great opportunity right corner, but Rooney kick sent the ball directly to the stands. Such a mistake is actually known as the best player in England kicked out, really makes surprise fans worldwide.
Former Brazilian soldiers sent Rooney said, "I am the previous two World Cup affected by injuries, I really hope this is the next part of my competition, I have not had to make progress in the World Cup ball, this time I want to do better This is not only for myself, because I know that if I play well, we can help the whole team. "
For the purposes of the Three Lions, Rooney always worth the wait. For a goal in the World Cup, Rooney also still waiting ......
The next puzzle game to let him play what position
After the game yesterday, Reuters wrote criticism, said, "Despite a good start in England, but Rooney et al in the next game gradually being forgotten." In fact, the use of Rooney, long before the World Cup began, the British media have sharply England coach Hodgson recommend "decisively abandon." However, the England coach chose the trust. However, the England striker was not able to return the trust scored mentor, but failed to block the skeptics mouth.
Therefore, the BBC launched a dedicated "Rooney played what position the" investigation. The results showed that 45% of fans voted "Rooney should not have played," 27% of fans think, "he should play behind the two strikers Sturridge," the remaining 14% of the fans that have "Rooney fit on both sides of the position . " In this regard, world football expert Chris Waddle joked: "If you do not let Rooney play the 10th position (middle), and that simply do not want him playing well."
Doubts before, Hodgson still stand firmly beside disciples. "There will always be surrounded by great players are controversial, but criticized Rooney's performance I think it was too harsh in my opinion, he played well and he is the team assists a ball, we know he can play different positions he was satisfied with his performance. "the coach added," he has to do in the field to their responsibilities, nothing to say. "
Having said that, England array Biruni perhaps there are others more suited to the middle position, the next game on how to utilize Rooney, Hodgson had enough of a headache.
England players worried about the lack of competition experience
Throughout the whole game yesterday, attacking the full impact of the England team, but the organization seems inadequate, two midfielders Steven Gerrard and Henderson hardness more than enough control, which makes it difficult to form a physical decline after the England players threatened attack. Meanwhile, the England team is not solid rear is also a risk.
After all, the lack of defense after England experienced leaders, in a return to the road blocked Hodgson Chelsea [microblogging] captain John Terry, the two main defender Cahill and Yagaierka no World Cup experience, diligence have plus, lack of charisma. Plus two hardened fullback Glen Johnson and Ashley Cole this season because of injuries and not reuse the impact is likely to play in general and even become a substitute, so the whole defense of England too "Cock wire."
On the other hand, this England team also has a weakness, it is lack of experience. In this season, Sturridge, Henderson, Sterling and other young players in the league to shine, to be England fans have high hopes, but they are, after all, was the first World Cup, so it is lack of experience. Rooney also admitted, "The only weakness is that we do not have a lot of competition experienced players."
England players and obvious psychological quality, enormous pressure will make these young players to play mad, it is still unknown. As has always been difficult to overcome, "penalty curse", or so England win the group and into the knockout stage and then consider it.
Observation Three Lions prospects for the future
In 2003, Rooney played for England for the first time, has been for 11 years. He believes that this is the strongest in 11 years next Three Lions. Despite yesterday's loss to Italy, but England still show a proper level, since the real strength of the Brazilian World Cup showdown gave Anglo-Italian war, I believe that the vast majority of fans will agree.
Face 4 Star Italy, this youth-oriented Three Lions played full blood, the number of shots and Shots were higher than the Blues. England manager Roy Hodgson boldly Stirling, Sturridge other teenager, they did not fear in the face of the Italian defense, several tear the opponent armor. In the second half of the race, the young Three Lions once the Italian press in half, creating several opportunities, almost equalized.
Although the young intoxicating rose fragrance, but with thorns. Because of youthful vigor, also means that the players lack of competition experience. Three Lions to break from the group of death, the outlook is not optimistic. After the loss to Italy, England bad-mouthing a young voice after another: Uruguay upset by Costa Rica 3:1 humiliation, the next game will certainly work with England Sike; manufacture big upset of Costa Rica, the last matter qualifying game heroics state whether copies are known, the remaining two games to double kill opponents hard blue sky above.
Another key qualifying, it is Wayne Rooney can prove himself in the big scene. Rooney has been at the club level proved to be world-class players, the World Cup is in the national team level, he proved himself equally good best chance. As England head brand, "big scene" rare as facts embarrass him. After Brazil's opener, he can break through the bottleneck, but also a question mark.
English football writer Simon Cooper in his "Why England always lose" in the England World Cup journey summarized into eight phases: the first is the belief that England will be able to cup and back; England suffered a second stage support in the past war enemy team; third stage began complaining about the bad luck; fourth referee is bullied; fifth is to be eliminated; sixth restore calm; seventh is to find a scapegoat; eighth stage is entered The next World Cup.
After the next game, do not focus on Russia, England will begin after 4 years?
