Our incoming CEO was openly rooting against us less than a decade ago. Wayne Rooney is Everton through and through and Kieran Trippier comes from a passionate United supporting family, yet when the opportunity came, he went to Newcastle instead. These things mean little in the professional sense.

There is no way Trippier would’ve went to Newcastle if we’d been interested. He would’ve been a very good signing as well so obviously we didn’t bother.
