The result of 'Ronaldo vs Rooney' England 'legendary choice' was 'unanimous'

Talk Sports, a British media outlet, reported on the 16th (Korea Standard Time) that "Shearer and Lineker were asked to choose between Ronaldo and Rooney. They both chose Rooney."

Shearer is a former soccer player with English nationality. He is currently a soccer commentator for BBC. He is the "most scorer (260 goals) ever" in the English Premier League where Son Heung-min is active. He is a legendary striker who is indispensable in the history of English soccer.

Lineker is a former soccer player with English nationality. His position was striker. He is the 10th highest scorer in a single FIFA World Cup. He was the top scorer at the 1986 World Cup. The two legends preferred to play with Rooney.

Rooney is a former Manchester United striker and England striker. Currently, he is a manager for Plymouth Argyle FC. He is the highest scorer ever at United. He was the third highest scorer in the EPL and fourth in assists, behind Shearer and Harry Kane.

Ronaldo, who was not chosen by the two commentators, also played in the English Premier League as a member of Manchester United. He is still playing for Saudi Arabian professional league Al Nasr F.C. He has been awarded the Ballon d'Or, the highest honor awarded by a soccer player. Many soccer fans call him one of the "God of soccer" along with Lionel Messi.

Why did Shearer and Lineker choose Rooney? Here are the reasons why the media reported. If he played with Ronaldo, he didn't think he would get the pass. Lineker said, "I choose Rooney. I prefer playing with Rooney over Ronaldo."

Shearer said, "I'm Rooney, too. I might not get a pass from Ronaldo." Lineker added, "Ronaldo is definitely a superstar. But I just answered who I want to play with."

In fact, it cannot be said that Rooney is ahead of Ronaldo in terms of career as a player. As mentioned earlier, Ronaldo is a five-time Ballon d'Or winner. In the history of soccer, only Messi (eight times) has received more awards than Ronaldo. In addition, Ronaldo's first Ballon d'Or was awarded in 2009 when he played for Manchester United along with Rooney. Rooney has never won a Ballon d'Or.

Ronaldo has played for five other clubs and played in 1,232 matches. As he is currently active, he is constantly setting new records. He has scored a whopping 896 goals. This is 60 more than Messi's. Rooney also played for five clubs while he was active. He only played in 763 matches. The figure is much lower than Ronaldo's.

However, Rooney can play multiple times. Ronaldo specializes in side wingers and strikers. Rooney can play both striker and center forward. In other words, he can play the role of a front-line striker and second striker.

Lineker and Shearer are strikers. If they play with Ronaldo, their positions will definitely overlap. Then, as Shearer mentioned, Ronaldo may have more opportunities. This is because he is like a "bomber" who can score points all over his body including Heather's feet.

On the contrary, the two commentators thought that playing with Rooney, who is a center forward, could create more opportunities together.
