I don't think Rooney is fat. You can't be at that level.

Rooney is not fat, definitely not. The man is built like a bulldog. He doesn't go and work out in gyms because he doesn't need to. And with all the conditioning it takes to be a pro footballer, Rooney can't be fat.

He is a tank, and yes, maybe one of the strongest also.

Ronaldo 9 in his prime was pretty strong on the ball as well.

Yeah, the real Ronaldo was strong! I was watching some videos and I didn't realize how much he grew outwards during his career!

Ah well, still one of my favourites and very very good.

Yes, he did get "bigger" on the ball didn't he.

Whatever, he still was a scoring machine.

According to fifa, John Terry appears to be one of the strongest in the game.

Idk, but I've seen a video where Oguchi Onyewu EASILY benches about 265lbs 5 or 6 times. I know that doesn't mean hes the strongest, but it gives one an idea.

Onyewu gets knocked over by wind, he has no balance.

The one, the only Momo Sissoko; he's a tank. Need I say more?

Carlos Tevez ? He's very strong and a tank as well....... Likes elbowing jostling and knocking everyone off... His arms are big too.

Whoa, his legs are big, and he has a very solid build. You should see Roberto Carlos' and Ronaldo's legs.

A lot of soccer players have legs like that. Its crazy. I was suprised when i went to this DC United camp, and our coaches had massive legs even though they were retired.

I would say that Adriano or Essien are the strongest players.
