Rooney - Wake Up And Smell The Glove!

Last updated : 19 June 2010 By Footy Mad - Editor

The England striker trudged off following an ineffective performance before turning and saying to the ITV cameras: "It's nice to see your home fans booing you."

It was another nothingness performance from the England striker, rated in the top three in the world prior to the competition.

Just as he did last Saturday against USA, he looked out of his depth and very unfit, huffing and puffing his way through the game and producing nothing that a Sunday League player would give.

The commentators claim he is doing well to curb his temper, but the fact remains ... nobody has tried to wind him up yet! That day, I'm sure, is just around the corner.

Slovenia only need a draw to go through - and knock England out - and THAT is when the tempers are sure to fly.

Unlike USA and Algeria, who showed Rooney some respect, Slovenia will be sure to try and get the England striker to throw his dummy out the pram.

Then we will see how good he is!
