SIRcumalot: robbie savage is also a legend in english football. it doesn't take much to be a legend in english football. rooney had the potential to become a legend in the world of football but he blew it. |

Speaking of "Hidden hazard"....

funlord:I know of someone who scored 45 goals in a season and scored 19 the next....... I don't see any United quote on our thread.... maybe if you have a player as good as him ,we would do the same.....Unfortunately you dont For those years of United dominance, everyone wanted to kill United..... So honestly I don't get your point, did he say anything bad? You guys need to free the starboy |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by elampiro(m): 2:01pm On Sep 09, 2015 |
coogar: 6 penalties for England throughout his career. He won two of them. It's fair enough. He played twice against Brazil and scored two open goals against Brazil (one in each tie). One with an individual brilliance. The penalty should never count as negative to his achievement. |

Confirmed: Man United only paid
Bayern Munich £6m for Bastian
Schweinsteiger
Wednesday, September 9th, 2015

New information has today been
revealed on the transfer fee
Manchester United paid Bayern
Munich for Bastian Schweinsteiger.
It had been widely reported that
United had splashed out 16 million
pounds to snare Schweinsteiger from
the Allianz Arena, but now that figure
has been revised.
Schweinsteiger’s first club, TSV 1860
Rosenheim, have posted an article on
their website revealing that Man
United only paid £6m for the German
World Cup winner. Rosenheim have
confirmed “the transfer fee adds up
to €9 million” on their official
website .
Rosenheim also revealed that Man
United will make payment in two
installments.
The news has been well received by
Manchester United fans on social
media, as they feel their club have
been somewhat redeemed in respect
of their activities in the summer
transfer market.
The Red Devils courted plenty of
attention after they spent £36m on
19-year-old French teenager Anthony
Martial. |

Editor’s column: A Liverpool fan’s
opinion on Wayne Rooney…
Posted by Jordan Chamberlain
Jordan Chamberlain – Editor of
Empire of the Kop – @Jordan_AC90
Any Liverpool fan with an ounce of
self respect should publicly and
privately despise Wayne Rooney.
The Everton supporting Toffee
graduate moved to our even bitterer
rivals Manchester United in 2004 –
confirming himself, if he hadn’t
already, as an enemy of Anfield.
His unprovoked quotes in 2009 ,
where he declared his hatred for
Liverpool strengthened this – as
have his O.T.T celebrations every
time he scores against us.
And it’s been easy to hate (but
mainly mock) Rooney back. He’s
funny looking, lacks a demonstrable
IQ and according to the tabloids,
slept with prostitutes.
Simply, Rooney is the anti-hero.
Or at least he should be.
But when he scored his 50th goal for
England last night, becoming the
country’s record goalscorer, I felt…
indifferent?
Many Liverpool fans sulked online as
the likes of Joe Gomez (who’s
playing Rooney on Saturday), Jordan
Henderson and club legends Steven
Gerrard and Jamie Carragher tweeted
Rooney congratulations – but it
didn’t offend me.
It didn’t stir up any emotions. No
hatred, no bitterness, no jealousy.
And I think it’s because I’m relieved.
Relieved that Rooney never really got
that good.
Yes, the record books will show him
as England’s top scorer and one day
the record appearance maker too.
But for what? He’s the person that
turns and up scores goals during
mind-numbing international breaks
when everyone would rather be
watching Premier League football.
And fair play to him for that
continued dedication to his country.
But again, for what? At proper
tournaments, bar his Euro 2004 hot
patch, Rooney’s been genuinely
awful.
For Liverpool fans, this is
schadenfreude. Or at least a silver
lining in the perpetual grey cloud of
supporting England. (Steven
Gerrard’s occasionally strong Three
Lions performance being the other
one.)
For United – he’s scored 170
Premier League goals – but he’s
coasted. Twice in 11 full campaigns
he’s bettered 30 goals. Exceptional
in 2009/10 and 2011/12. A solid,
strong contributor elsewhere.
But he could have been so, so much
more.
When Rooney signed for Sir Alex
Ferguson, I was scared. Watching
this fireball of energy, talent and
ferocity was a sight to behold when
he burst on the scene. Versus Turkey
in 2003, Rooney continuously picked
up the ball on the halfway line and
ran at defenders. He skinned them
alive. For fun. He was loving it. It
was too easy. It was before the great
Argentine’s time, but looking back
now, it was ‘Messi-esque’. And
that’s as high a praise as can be
given in modern football. Aged 18,
Rooney was head and shoulders
above his international counterparts.
But I haven’t seen Rooney run with
the ball in over five years, and he’s
not yet 30.
I’m not scared of Rooney anymore
and haven’t been for a long time. No
Liverpool fan should be.
Rooney could have been anything he
wanted to be, and I’m relieved that
an Everton supporting Scouse
Manchester United forward never
went on to fulfil his talent – as if he
had – he’d have caused us endless
grief this Century. And he hasn’t. Not
really.
In 2011, wind-up merchant Adrian
Durham held a phone-in on
talkSPORT, asking whether Rooney
was as good as, or better than Lionel
Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo.
Naturally, he got the nibbles he was
fishing for – but in 2004 – you’d
have backed the Englishman to
become the best of the three. How
crazy does that sound now?
But Wayne Rooney does deserve
plaudits and congratulations from the
footballing world. His achievement is
undeniable, and any discussions on
just how much he’s actually
accomplished when you take ‘San
Marino’ and ‘Lithuania’ into account
are boring. He’s done it, broken the
record. Job done.
As a Liverpool fan though, the reason
I can join in with those
congratulations is because I don’t
hate him. I’m indifferent to Wayne
Rooney. And I don’t hate him
because he let us off the hook. |

elampiro: you are basically reaffirming my stance. so without lampard's retirement from the international games, rooney would still be on 45 goals after almost 13 years? yes...he scored against brazil! what a proud achievement.....except that none of those games against brazil was a competitive game. ElFenomeno1: here we go again..... after denying he wasn't referring to me, he has failed woefully to provide any ample evidence that anyone on this thread said depay is better than hazard. elfeminine, you are a fool. my biggest concern today is the fact that your midwife didn't use your umbilical cord to strangle you immediately you came out. letting you live is a crime against humanity. SIRcumalot: hahahahaha so you are saying a player that was named the white pele should be contented with the fact that he never achieved his potential? at least we are getting somewhere. do you still think rooney will score 25 league goals this season as you predicted months ago? |

coogar:Am back on the rooney 25 league goals wagon, There is no logic behind this decision except maybe faith. Not many players live up to the expectation of the media and the fans. If rooney ends his career as one or maybe the greatest player in the club's history that isn't bad at all. I think this Martial dude is replacing Hernadez on the bench. Fellani will start against liverpool. |

coogar: Rooney couldn't have done it earlier. Look at Ronaldo and Messi who have been the chief set play takers for their countries. Aguero 2006 to date 36 goals. 68 games CR7 2003 to date : 55 goals in 122 matches. Messi 2005 to date :49 goals in 105 appearances Tevez 2004 to date : 13 goals in 72 games. Rooney 2003 to date : 50 goals in 107 matches. If Rooney didn't have Lampard and Gerald in his team, he would have been taking fee kicks and penalties. We could add their goals from set plays to Rooney 50 goals.

SIRcumalot: he's a modern great.....he's not a club legend. i commend what he's done for the club especially in his early days at OT. however, he should have been sold after 2012/13.
£36m on the bench? are you kidding me? martial will start until he stops performing like he's expected to. elampiro: how clinical is rooney from the spot? without lampard/gerrard, rooney woulda been a midfielder for most of his career in the 3 lions.
i don't celebrate mediocrity. |
Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by SIRcumalot: 9:19pm On Sep 09, 2015 |
@Coogar I know you're joking
If rooney isn't a man utd legend nobody is. |
