Should have kept Rooney

[Parker]

Bayern paid $22M for an MLS player this January. Guess its feeding champions league clubs now, huh?

The Croatian league produces loads of brilliant players, would you say they play at the highest standard?

A team taking a punt on a young player means absolutely zero about the league.

 

[Jimmy Grimble]

No we absolutely shouldn't have.

Our squad is looking youthful and exciting. Brands has done an amazing job completely refreshing our ranks.

Rooney was ok for us last season but nothing more. He wouldn't get on our bench now everyone is fit.

I seen the thread title
And I think did I imagine a slow paced 40yr old in the body of a 31 year old patrol our midfield and attack last season yes he scored some brilliant goals but the fact is at his level he’s finished ,can’t we be excited about our attack now,so much pace and creativity compared to that last season

No chance should have kept him. Legs had gone which was plain to see but the most scary thing is I'm pretty sure if he was still on the payroll we wouldn't have got Bernard in. Hmmm Rooney or Bernard

Nah mate.

Where’s he fitting in between the players you mention? Certainly not in place of Siggurddsson.

Nope.

Tosun would score about 50 in MLS.

1 or 2 belters here. Anyone care to reconsider in the cold light of day?

How has anything thats occurred this season changed the fact that Rooney is utterly finished at the top level? Poor attempt at a vault.....

Erm no....not at all.

I am rather perplexed by this to be honest.

No. Rooney would not be any better than the dross we currently have

You seriously think Rooney would have changed the outcomes of any of the last 4 games? He is past it and would have made us even more disjointed and slower than we have looked anyway.

 

[phildp]

Reconsider what? Bernard or Rooney? Bernard all day.

Oh I see what you have done, waited for a dip in form to vault (nice one).
Will stick with a 26yr old with potential to be a cracking player for us thanks.
Banging the drum for a finished Rooney (at prem level)is not really the way to go, but each to their own.

What a peculiar time for a vault attempt.

And no, he's still gash. As he has been for the last 3 years, no amount of goals in a semi pro league and lack of results from Everton is gonna change that. Move on.

Absolutely not, no.

Nothing has changed unless you are a huge knee-jerker.

Hahahha no lad.

We're clearly better off here.

Stop this now it's getting embarassing.

No, and don’t call anyone a belter.

 

[AdaBrummieblue]

I'm going to be nice about this, but anyone seriously thinking Rooney should still be here needs a psych eval. Stat.

 

[Papa Shango]

He should never have come back let alone still be here!

One of the worst vaults I’ve ever seen to be honest.
