I've touched on this a few times, but I'll wade in here.
England is hard. I would wager that the EPL is the second toughest League in the World.
Second only to (arguably) the English Championship.
Spain is easy, France is a joke, Holland is tough too, Germany has its moments, Italy is interesting and difficult but England? England is hard.
I dont know anything specifically about Rooney, but English players are only recently branching out into other Leagues.
Its a big reason I'd say that Ronaldo is the GOAT over Messi. Messi has skated by in second-rate leagues, Ronaldo has excelled in England, Spain and Italy.
