generation lmbo (darraghmac), Monday, 24 October 2011 18:40 (fourteen years ago)

He already gets more touches than any other nominal forward in the league. I don't think dropping deeper still would be a good idea.

His side needed a different kind of midfielder yesterday but Rooney wasn't it.

boxall, Monday, 24 October 2011 18:42 (fourteen years ago)

atm he is a nominal fwd

were he to be dropped deeper officially he would be a midfielder and utd could play one of the actual forwards they employ

Amateur lip readers online saying it looked more like "are you crazy you son of a whore/bitch"

He definitely said that. The bit that Holgate reacted to was afterwards - when an Everton player’s head was blocking the view of the camera. If Firmino did say anything else he was pretty close to the ref when he did so.

At the weekend, one of Depay's former United team-mates, Wayne Rooney, revealed a failed attempt to help the Dutchman ingratiate himself at the club.

"He came on at Stoke away and messed up for their goal so (manager) Louis van Gaal made him play for the reserves the next day," said Rooney, who now plays for Major League Soccer franchise DC United.

"I said, 'Look, it's a bit difficult [for you]. Just don't come in with all your fancy stuff.'

"And he turned up for the reserve game in his Rolls-Royce, wearing a leather jacket and a cowboy hat. And I just thought, 'What's the point?'

https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/45565907

The point, Wayne Rooney, is that you're a cockfarmer.

He's a million miles away from Lampard, Gerrard, Ferdinand or any of those in terms of myth vs reality vs salary vs harnessing an entire footballing infrastructure around.

A million miles. Each of the above was a player that significantly improved the teams they played for consistently throughout their long careers. Everything United or England have done since Rooney became their completely white hope has been despite the heaving infection.

I'm not a football fan, but when I think of Wayne Rooney I always remember the plan to make a five-volume autobiography of Wayne Rooney, because ghostwritten football autobiographies were so hot back in 2006:
https://www.theguardian.com/uk/2006/mar/10/books.bookscomment

"Everyone knows Wayne Rooney has a way with words. Usually very short ones, consisting mainly of asterisks, like this recent verbal sally aimed at a Premiership referee and faithfully recorded by the tabloids: "You f***ing t*** ... you're a f***ing disgrace."

Computer screens were really narrow in 2006. Rooney was apparently given a £5m advance. This was back when the biggest-selling author in the UK was Katie Price. The joke at the time was that he was only 20, but that didn't seem particularly bad, and I imagine that nowadays there's easily enough material for half a million words about Wayne Rooney. His story is the story of Britain in the early twenty-first century, and also the 1960s, because I always felt there was something 1960s about him ("local boy done good", that kind of thing).

"Rooney's deal comes a day after Alan Greenspan, former chairman of the US Federal Reserve, signed a $9m (£5.2m) deal with Penguin for his memoirs. That deal eclipsed Pope John Paul II's $8.5m for Crossing the Threshold of Hope in 1994, but remained behind the $12m Bill Clinton is rumoured to have received for his memoirs."

I don't know if the moderators can see it, but notice how I put the italic tags inside the quote marks. Because the quote marks aren't part of the quote, they define the quote. The words are italic, not the quote marks. I may not have progressed to CSS and Javascript etc but I do know how to write clean HTML. If anybody needs someone who can add italic tags to blocks of text, email me and we can come to a deal.

It seems that one volume came out later the same year, My Story So Far, but four years on the whole thing was scrapped because England did poorly in a bunch of international tournaments. It was ghostwritten by Hunter Davies OBE, who also went on to ghostwrite John Prescott's autobiography, Prezza, My Story: Pulling no Punches. "And then I hit him" probably features in both books.

he did ok at Derby, maybe he's only any good at crisis clubs who aren't paying player wages and teetering on the edge of bankruptcy etc. His record has been just as bad as Darren Moore's and he wont get sacked. Then again we weren't in a playoff place when the useless fucker got the job.

Cook said: “Wayne’s role here is to be a leader, to drive a successful, ambitious and winning mentality.” This is another milestone for Birmingham City. With it comes great expectation.”

looking into his time at Derby, a lot of their fans consider that Rosenior was the brains behind the operation and the way their respective careers are going bears this out, well the latter is doing ok at Hull while Wazza likely won't get another job at this level.
