Wayne Rooney… A simple yes or no?

[Eggsyblueskin]

I am not sure if there will ever be a right time for something. In my experience in life if you wait things out and hope for better, sometimes better does not arrive. The stars might align here and could be perfect time for him.

If he kept Derby up maybe Ralf at United would want him to takeover at the end of the season. Small chance but who knows what he wants their football strategy to be.

Trouble is if he does well here and Rangnick wants him next season he’s gone and we’re back to square one,

Imagine having a manager that gets caught in camera getting farted on by a brass

The only plus I can see is him bringing Championship experience.

I take it that you have not been watching Everton for long. Rooney was the best teenage player I have seen at the club, by the way, I watched the teenage Harvey, Royle, Husband etc. they were all good teenagers, especially Royle, but, they weren't in the same league as young Rooney.

I’m talking about Rooney’s last stint obviously.

 

[Buzz Lightroom]

I would definitely give him a chance. I've been saying for a long time that we need a Moyes v2.0. We need a young, hungry manager that can come and prove himself.
Any managerial appointment is a gamble. We've gone for experience in the past and it hasn't paid off. Rooney loves Everton so he'd put his heart and soul in to it. He could have the same kind of effect that Dunc had but potentially long term.
It'll be a rocky road because the club is broken but give him 2 or 3 years and a free reign to change the squad and he could do good things.

It's a yes from me.

 

[Deloodid]

I would like to leave him at Derby till the end of the season, with Dunc in charge for the rest of the season.

Moshiri's "name" appointment. Tick.
Kenwright's sentiment appointment. Tick.
Everton's chaotic, ridiculous choice. Tick.

If it's between Rooney and Lampard, I'd go for Rooney, knows the city ?

 

[everton1953]

So did Rafael "know the City"
No to Wayne. Will never forget his debut goal against Arsenal. The Echo said the ground levitated.

Rooney or Lampard - Rooney
Rooney or Martinez - Rooney
Dunc or Rooney - Dunc

Superb

 

[Johnnytotal]

what an utter shambles this is

 

[kenada_blue]

No discernible playing style, off field scandal will be a regular occurrence, no track record in the transfer market.

Big no for me. Despite the job he is doing at derby.

Playing style ----- win games.

That's the only style I want.

 

[Del-boy]

Be Rooney. Derby be happy as they are desperate for compo to stay afloat.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

Yes.

Given the choice between the two I'd have Lampard, but I don't think Rooney would be the worst shout personally.
