How did he play besides the goal?
Wayne Rooney rejoins Everton | United save £30M by giving him £10M pay-off
- Thread starter RonaldoVII
- Start date
Hope we sorted a buy back clause?
I think the bye bye clause was enough.
Think this will be a good move for them. A team like Everton doesn't need the consistent world class performances we did. He is a special kind of player that can still produce moments of brilliance. If he finds even 70 percent of his old form though it would be an amazing signing for them.
People think it was a stupid move for Everton but with the money they have coming in it's definitely worth the risk. Look at Falcao. We all thought we was completely finished but he's doing well back in Monaco. A new fresh start can do wonders for a player.

There's only one of us getting our knickers in a twist and isn't me.
Agree totally.
And I hope he does well there and wins them a trophy (FA or League Cup), because he gave us his absolute best years and I think he deserves a great little story to finish his career at Everton.
He's going to cause problems at Everton. By Christmas their fans will have had enough.
Absolutely. He's a man with nothing to lose at this point.
So he fails at Everton, not a big deal as he is clearly expected to do just that, but should he perform above and beyond, he'll be hailed as the returning hero. A shot to nothing, so to speak, is how I'd see the situation were I Wayne Rooney.
I'd love to see him do well at down there, if only to shove it down the doubters throats.
Don't even joke. After waiting 13 years for him to bugger off I'm going on record to say if that happens I'll throw him off the Humber bridge myself.
This
You wanted him to leave the entire time? Even when he was excellent?
Even before he joined Everton the first time.
Appreciated his contributions but disliked him as a person since he was at Everton the first time.
You wanted him out since 2004?
Jesus you must really dislike him, he shag you granny or something?
I really can't stand the man, he just represents everything I don't like in people. He's dishonest, gormless, Undisciplined, arrogant cocky, a bit thick and has this unshakable belief that many footballers have that they can do whatever the feck they like. Still, when people are treated like gods from a young age for having well coordinated feet what should I expect?
Haha.
They are not similar in many ways but like Mou, Koeman will not play a lazy Rooney - guaranteed
He's a massively emotional player and his performances haven't been the same since he "matured" so, hopefully this move to Everton sparks that passion inside him. I've been a huge Critic since the season where he had his first contract dispute but for some reason I want him to do well at Everton.

Fair enough mate he probably is most of those things to be fair, though as you say he's probably had smoke blown up his arse from a very young age so not surprising he has an inflated ego.
Fair dos i suppose
Add that face that only a fist could love as well

So you're a Manchester United fan that didn't like Wayne Rooney since 2004 for reasons that almost 95% of footballers are affected with. I do feel sorry for you as you missed out on one of the finest attackers of the game and this club during his peak years!
I do expect him to do quite well for the first couple of months.
When he was (finally) dropped by Mourinho this season, he came back fired up and played well for 3-4 weeks. Even after that I thought he was better for the remainder of the season than he had been for the last few years, although obviously not enough for us. Going to Everton should fire him up again and I expect we'll see a similar 'resurgence' at the beginning. Unfortunately I doubt it'll last, but we'll see.
Wayne Rooney shouldn't be allowed to play against Manchester United.
Loaned players can't play against their parent club, because their parent club is still paying their wages. In Rooney's case, we're paying half his wages. I wouldn't be surprised if the FA stepped in at some point.

He won't be on our payroll. We will pay it up front of pay a fee in the future as a clause.
Guaranteed to score against us, then.
Think this is a tad cheeky.
10:41KEY EVENT
Rooney has a pop
Wayne Rooney gets the dagger out for Ed Woodward and a few others. The points are pretty valid but there’s a time and a place, and a type of person that should and shouldn’t say these sort of things.
“There are standards that you have to keep when you are at Manchester United.
“That came from the manager Sir Alex Ferguson when I went to United and it was then passed down through the dressing room by the likes of Giggsy, Gary Neville and Scholesy.
“Over the last few years, it was down to me and Michael Carrick to keep the new players maintaining those standards.
“That became more difficult over the last few years, with some of the players who joined the club. There are traditions at United that have to be maintained. It’s become harder, but that’s not my problem any more. I’m just ecstatic to be back at Everton.”

I said it would be a matter of time until he started this bullshit. They were merely following his half assed shite example.
The day he left I celebrated like crazy, he should have been sold a couple of years back. He was a massive part of the decline of the team and well, the less said about his own decline as a player the better.
Wonder where those standards were when Rooney couldn't even control a Football properly these past 2 years.
You were one of the main culprits on the pitch though, absolute shite for 3 years.
We're going to see a lot more of this I imagine.
I'm just ecstatic he won't be stinking Old Trafford out this season. Great player years ago but a mercenary at the same time.
The man has zero self awareness.
How can he say that with shit he served up himself over the past few years. Now throwing new layers under the bus.
Just reminded me why I wanted him out so badly.

lol at maintaining standards. You were sold to push the club to a higher standard after you spent two years being undroppable at the expense of the team.
'Standards' must be the reason why so many young United players praised Zlatan immediately and effusively.
