Blasphemy. Rooney was a much better player than Ribery in most aspects. In his early career he was absolutely unstoppable as a winger. Then he became a number 9, then attacking midfielder, and eventually a deep lying playmaker. I just think he was a more gamebreaking and talented player, while Ribery was merely an elite winger that played his role in a dominant Bayern side.

I’d have Ribery over Rooney for a wide winger
