Rooney Argues Arsenal Lacks World-Class Players - But Reveals Team's Strengths

Wayne Rooney, a legendary English national team striker, commented that Arsenal's current squad under Mikel Arteta has no world-class players. Arsenal currently leads the Premier League, though no player in the team has scored double-digit goals in the English Premier League. Rooney stated in 'The Overlap Fan Debate' program: 'I agree with the fact that Arsenal doesn't have true superstars or world-class players who can carry all hopes.' 'However, what I've seen over the years is that they know how to win matches. They've shown that you don't need superstars. What I think is happening is that Arsenal fans and former players are destroying them.' 'They should stay quiet and let others speak. I heard Martin Keown say that leading by 6 points is better than 9 points - what was he talking about? Is it experienced players being worried? Mikel Arteta handles things well, with his communication style and media approach, trying to keep players calm.' 'Arsenal has quality, but do they have superstars like Ronaldo, Drogba, Aguero, or players who can make a difference? I don't think so, but they know how to win and have shown this consistently over the past 3 years.'
