"Rooney is different. He's a hard worker. He enjoys physical duel. Honestly, I'd rather be. Defender I like duel versus a striker," he added.
"But Rooney would complicate mobility. You do not always know to what extent should come out to suppress it. He fell down or widened over and you are wondering whether to follow it," said the Spanish international defender.
"Communication with the midfield so vital. If he (Rooney) down, there is a point where the defender can not follow and responsibilities to switch to the quarterback. Leaving the post too much will leave a hole in the back," said Ramos.
"But it's not just them, the whole team. You have Chicharito, who played for half an hour and scored two or three goals at any time. And it is no coincidence," he said.
