Shocking stats prove that Louis van Gaal was probably right to take Wayne Rooney off

Another game, another abject Wayne Rooney performance.

The Manchester United captain couldn’t get anything going at the King Power Stadium and was largely a spectator throughout his 68 minutes on the pitch.

Rooney continues to frustrate United fans and, despite a lack of options, large sections have called for him to be dropped from Louis van Gaal’s starting XI.

And Rooney’s match statistics prove that, yet again, he had an absolutely wretched game this weekend.

Wayne Rooney's game by numbers vs. Leicester:

70% pass accuracy
0 shots on target
0 chances created
0 take-ons
0 crosses completed

Subbed.
