After his struggles with Manchester United this season, Wayne Rooney has not been the world's most popular footballer.

With that in mind, some of the reactions to the announcement that has been voted England's Player of the Year for 2015 shouldn't surprise us. Here's a quick look at how Twitter reacted to the news of Rooney's latest award: Some found it hilarious... https://twitter.com/CraigFarquhar92/status/684326800068067328 Whereas others were simply in disbelief... https://twitter.com/mborooo/status/684326864337371136 https://twitter.com/MattProsser94/status/684326984244158464 https://twitter.com/GraemeBandeira/status/684328791704006656 Even some of his supporters found it difficult to justify... https://twitter.com/PhumlaniNKO51/status/684330236180312064 There were plenty who believed the accolade should have gone to others... https://twitter.com/DaryllK7/status/684318324092747776 https://twitter.com/Adz_Dawkins/status/684318403394408449 But in a year when he overtook Sir Bobby Charlton's all time goalscoring record, some clearly believe that Rooney is still the best option for his country. https://twitter.com/DeGeaed/status/684323724984758272 https://twitter.com/Rooney_esque/status/684320246363254784
