2017/18 Wayne Rooney

[Niapper]

I agree with this - he lacks positional discipline. Make him wear a traffic cone on his head so his position can be easily spotted from the bench and if he does stray - make him do 50 burpees.

This will sort the problem

lollollol

“It was not difficult [Rooney leaving] because he deserved that it was not difficult. He deserves what he got and what he got was our desire for him to stay and our respect by letting it be completely clear that we would like him to stay."

And you actually believe that?

Needs some time on the bench. Was awful yesterday.

We look better without him in the team for me. Any formation he is in, never has proper shape because he doesn't stick to it. He might pop up with the odd goal but Sig has created more chances even with his poor form.

Because United knew when to get rid of him, like a sensible club would.

We got rid of him far too late apparently, some people said he's been finished since 3 or 4 seasons ago.

He was ok till 14/15. 15/16 showed that he is done.

That’s alright, we’ll take your cast offs, then pay them silly money and make them bigger than the club.

The man literally talks the most rubbish in football

Nice trophy room though

Easily our best player and people doubt it, class slide through ball for Lennon. No one else is on his level in this team. Yes he is not what he used to be, but still our only true class player. Never thought I would live to see the day when fellow blues have turned into Geordies. Always was proud to say our fans were clued up and informative, what happened??

Years of substandardness mate.

Swapping arguably one of the best strikers in the land for Rooney.

Don't get me wrong, I am not opposed to Rooney being here, but he's not Lukaku's replacement.

These are bad days and I was a youth in the days of Walter Smith.....

Pros: His best attribute is definiately his finishing. Still the top scorer at the club. He is definiately the best finisher from our long list of "strikers". He can sometimes pick a good pass like the one to Lennon yesterday. He actually will have a go at refs, something our captain(s) failed to do. Plus he is a very experiened pro...young players will benefit from his presence.

Cons: He consistently made some crap pass/gave away the ball in dangerous area and the opposition made counter attack from there. I think he did that quite often since he re-joined. He does not seem to stick to a position he just show up in anywhere he likes. He loses his pace and we are too slow in every attack as he is central to our finial third.

cons: when he gets played as a striker he's jogging around next to jags and piggy trying 60 yard Hollywood balls

again like I said not our worst player and hasn't been bad, but he is trying to do everyones job instead of sticking to his own
