"Why isn't Holan the top scorer?"

While Wayne Rooney is one of the top three players in the English Premier League (EPL) this season, Erling Holan is omitted.

With the EPL resuming this weekend, Rooney handpicked the three best players of the season in an Amazon Prime Sports interview. They chose more controversial players than name value. Fans' reactions on social media are also sharply mixed. In particular, Manchester City's Elling Holan, who led his country Norway to the World Cup finals with a crazy performance this season, was not included in the `Rooney List" list.

First of all, Rooney's first choice is Bournemouth's Antoine Semeno, who was born in 2000. Semeno built a solid record with six goals and three assists in 11 games. Rooney continues to be in good form from last season" he evaluated.

Then, he took a picture of Cameroonian winger Brian Mbeumo, who wore a Manchester United uniform this season. "I also want to put mbeumo in it. "I got off to a rough start to the season for Manchester United, but I've been in really good form since then." He picked Arsenal's 'Monster Striker'Victor Jockeres as his last third pick. "Arnall has been waiting for the No. 9 center forward. He is excellent in determination, performance and ball possession. Naturally, he also scored several times."

But on social media, football fans immediately reacted to Elling Holan's omission. Holland, who has 14 goals, has an overwhelming advantage in scoring competition and is the player who makes the difference in every game. Fans also pointed out that the `Rooney List' did not include outstanding midfielders such as Chelsea's Moises Caicedo, Arsenal's Declan Rice and Sunderland captain Granit Xhaka.

Even looking at this selection of players, you can see why Rooney is not successful as a coachThere were also comments criticizing it. He also made a straightforward remark, "To continue to fail as a coach after making such an evaluation..." Rooney is yet to return as head coach, but he is very well received as a commentator. 'Liverpool Legends' Graeme Souness also'Wayne Rooney makes a common sense commentary. "If I pick a Manchester United all-time list, I'll put him first." "He was a true warrior. He has authority as both a player and a commentator. I'd like to hear Rooney, although I don't know what other commentators say," he said, expressing his absolute support.
