Leaders command respect.
Unbeaten records demand admiration.
To take control, your rivals must fall.

One wrong pass and Wayne Rooney could go from a glittering international career to life in a trailer park.

Something Wazza must fight to avoid if faced by Franck Ribery in the battle to Write The Future.

Timing is Everything

sinyew.tan — Mon, 01 Mar 2010 20:35:58 GMT

You’re the club’s talisman and star striker with 27 goals in all competitions; this is the first opportunity of the season to claim some silverware.

But you find yourself on the bench, rested because of a niggling injury.

You watch your team go a goal down, from the dugout, and you watch the player in your position score the equaliser.

You watch and you wait.

You wait on the sideline as your number’s shown on the board.
You watch as the ball’s floated in from the right wing.
You wait, timing your jump perfectly.
You wait as the ball loops towards the top corner.

You watch the ball hit the back of the net.

If you’re Wayne Rooney, it’s not a matter of “if” you’ll make the difference; it’s when.

Rooney Silences San Siro

sinyew.tan — Wed, 17 Feb 2010 17:41:25 GMT

A great match between two great teams. The one difference was Wayne Rooney.

But it didn't start that way. Ronaldinho had Milan on top after just 3 minutes and controlled much of the first half. But Manchester United woke up right before the break and tied the game, setting up a second half primed for The Rooney Show.

Deadly accuracy did not disappoint. Two goals in ten minutes. Two surprise headers caught San Siro silent, and even a late goal couldn't bring them back.

To England now - will it be any different in the second leg?

King of Old Trafford

sinyew.tan — Sun, 24 Jan 2010 08:59:14 GMT

His first four goal haul.

Another world class performance.

Wayne Rooney's been in deadly form so far this term.

Focused and firing on all cylinders, this is his best season yet.

Can he break the 30 league goal barrier?

32 nations, 1 mission

ManishTilwani — Thu, 10 Dec 2009 08:52:31 GMT

The groups are drawn, the matches set and history awaits.

The chosen 32 have earned their tickets to South Africa. But belief and an appetite for glory will now be put to the test on the world’s biggest stage. Who’s hungry?

Expect danger and perfection in equal doses when Drogba, Fabiano and Ronaldo clash in the early stages. All three lethal finishers will aim to change the game at all times. Backlines brace yourselves...

England will go into their first match against the USA with plenty of confidence, having blazed to the top of their qualification group. Combine Rooney's ruthless eye for goal, Ferdinand's strength and Theo's lightning-quick pace and you have a team ready for business.

But no longer considered inexperienced upstarts, Landon Donovan's side have proved they can hold their own, finishing second in the Confederations Cup – expect the unexpected.

And it’s not just about the big guns. The smaller nations will also be eager to shake things up this summer.

Michael Essien, Muntari, Song and Obi Mikel will be holding it down for the African nations and baring their teeth with the best of them. While South Korea and Australia provide the giant killing potential and look to cause 2010 upsets.

As 2010 draws near, one thing’s for certain – everyone believes they can win it, one team will prove it.
