Rooney just acts like he's the biggest toughest, most skilled person there is, haven't you noticed when he loses his temper he blames his team mates? That aint right, at least blame the ref, it's always the ref. WHat if a referee scored a goal?
Having watched almost every one of Manchester United's games since December (and a lot before then too)... no, I haven't noticed that at all. In fact, he doesn't lose his temper very often at all these days. Maybe you should stop living on long-past reputations and see him for the person he has grown up to become. The same one that every player who has known him (your lovely Michael Owen is a good friend of his, you know) to become. And Rooney doesn't act 'big' or 'tough' at all (although he is big and tough - to say otherwise is to be ignorant, hell, he was going to be a boxer at one point). In every interview I've seen him in, he's a very modest guy that has loads of praise for his teammates as well as the opposition.

I won't claim to know Beckham, but if you think he left England so he could find even more fame and meet more journalists, you're incredibly ignorant.

Methinks you have issues with Manchester United players. Just appreciate players for the players they are, and quit reading gossip columns.
