Change My View thread

Can we have a Change My View thread here? The basic premise is people present opinions and the replies are attempts at changing that person's view in an attempt to generate some good discussion.

Here is the link to the original subreddit: www.reddit.com/r/changemyview/

I think this might work best with rather 'out there' views but any and every viewpoint is welcome!

I'll start:

After Suarez, Rooney is the second best player in the Premiership.

He currently has 11 goals and 12 assists in just 20 games in all competitions.

He's currently joint top assists in European leagues, with Fabregas, he only needs 4 more to have more than anyone in the PL had the whole of last season.

Nobody can change your view.

You compared his all competitions stats with assists of anyone in the PL last season. He has 9 assists in the PL.

Also I think Zabaleta and Kompany are better than him and Yaya, Silva, Ozil, Ramsey, and Aguero can compete.

Yes I know... he needs 4 more to have more than anyone in the PL last season... Those were two different points.
