Time up Rooney? England fans react to his absence against Germany

England produced one of their best performance in a while against Germany on Saturday, coming from two goals down to defeat the World Champs 3-2 in Berlin.

England and Manchester United captain missed the game due to injury, however in his absence, the Three Lions were effective on the night.

Rooney has not been spectacular for United this season, scoring seven league goals so far.

Here are the  views of English fans on Twitter reacting to his absence.

Would be very dispiriting after adventure and fearlessness of that if we see likes of Milner/Rooney start the first game of the Euros.

Roy Hodgson & Louis Van Gaal could both do with dropping Rooney & stop picking him based on past achievements. He's on a rapid decline.

Good night for #England.
Bad night for Rooney, Sterling and Wilshire.
Enjoyable, encouraging stuff. Even when 2-0 down.
#GERvENG 2-3

Rooney shouldn't be anywhere near the squad let alone the team. Stones in for Smalling, Hart back, otherwise as per
@ annochiecottage

@SkyFootball
if your going on form, kane vardy and rashford! We always take the big names and get nowhere! Let the youngsters have a go Roy!
@ darrensales

Rooney is a pundit for ITV for Wednesday's game against Holland. Getting some practice in for the
summer.
@ HylandIan

@HylandIan lol cant see it, Roy loves Rooney so he will start every game which, based on form shouldn't happen
@ bringbackLB

@HylandIan @NicBhriain is it wrong if me to hope he's not going to the euros
@ steviewych

@SkyFootball what role? Joe Hart or Wilshere as Captain and Wayne Rooney on the bench in his garden.
@ PatrickDCullen

@SkyFootball Rooney has no role he's done" younger better players now'
@ PackmanScouse

@SkyFootball Rooney officially has no role. I love the man but he would've slowed way too much
down tonight. He'll be in China soon
@ jameswoods1992

Rooney can stay in bed tho still
@ JamzLdn

England brilliant win over Germany inspired by Kane and Vardy proves Hodgson must ditch Rooney for Euros #eng #FA

To be completely honest I sort of want Rooney's injury to stop him from going to the Euros but I also want United to be able to sell him...

If England play in this formation in the summer, there's no case for Rooney's inclusion on current form. It would actually harm the team.

@ SebSB

The way Rooney often slows down play for Manchester United in their rare pacy moments?
That's why we don't need him for England at the mo.

Very impressed with England tonight, and to think Sturridge hasn't even got a look in. I'm afraid Rooney will hold England back in July.

Please don't bring Rooney back Roy. Pace,verve, urgency - this is what we wanted to see...
