“For whatever reason”

He was on £150,000 a week and got arrested for drink driving whilst attempting to cheat on his wife , after spending years acting like a proper family man Evertonian who brought up his kids as blues.

Kicked off when he was subbed off a few times, when he had a stinker it was like playing with 10 men.

Missed pens left right and centre yet still insisted on taking them, was top scorer in a team that was utterly utterly gash for most the season with no striker , including a hat trick against a West Ham team that had just turned up for banter.

Sick of his gob, do one Wayne. You jumped up and down in front of the park end kissing a man united badge in front of a huge row of flowers on the day we mourned an all time great Evertonian in Alan Ball. We owe him absolutely nothing.

Koff

I’m thinking that you maybe don’t like him......
 
The season wasn't a month old before he got absolutely bladdered and end up getting pulled over by the police with a woman who wasn't his wife in the car, causing the club a massive PR headache for weeks. He was substituted a record number of times during the season for being a hindrance on the pitch with his rubber legs. He publicly swore at his manager on one such occasion, the Goodison derby, which showed he thought he was above management (regardless of how you feel about Allardyce the way he kicked off showed the sense of entitlement he held). His fitness was found wanting and in the games he did manage to stay on for he was often blowing out his arse after an hour. He lost possession of the ball more than other player in our squad last season. And of top of all that he missed 2 penalties, both of which could have cost us dearly.

Glad he's gone and if he really believes he was treated harshly he's deludeding himself. His return season wasn't a disaster but wasn't a great success either and it's absolutely the right decision to have moved him on, anyone who thinks otherwise is had jaded as he is.

He’s gone mate.
 

He’s gone mate.

He’ll never be gone , he will hang around out club like a bad smell for the rest of his life. He started doing it a few years before he left United.

He’s taken millions and millions off this club and he acts like he’s above us, he said in his book that people “claiming to be Everton fans”gave him stick sometimes , like he is the judge of who’s an Evertonian. The same book that our manager had to sue him for libel because of the comments he made.

Wayne Rooney is not an Evertonian. He is a former Evertonian who severed his ties. He has no right to talk about our club with the tone of anything other than an a regular ex player.

Got a massive head too
 

So much bile being spewed in this thread.

Thanks for the memories Wayne ;) Thanks for the sense of expectation and hope that you gave us as a youngster (however brief it may have been)
I remember him coming on as (16 yr old?) sub in a pre season friendly at Shrewsbury. My first glimpse of this much talked about 'prospect'.
I have never been as excited (or as impressed) by any player on first viewing.
I remember THAT goal against Arsenal (I was in the departure lounge at Manchester Airport at the time and it was a cracking start to my holidays)
I remember the disappointment when he joined Man UTD.
He had a fantastic career at both club and international level. (Yes it is sad that the 'club' in question wasn't Everton)
In hindsight we were wrong to bring him back at the tail end of his career, but even then he provided memories. The 'own half' goal against West Ham will never be forgotten.
Less than 100 total appearances for his boyhood club and nearly 400 for Man UTD means that neutrals will always associate him with them.
I don't care.
To me, once a blue always a blue. Good luck for the future Wayne
 
He is most certainly not an Everton legend. McCarthy, Lukaku, Barry, Barkley, Mirallas, Fellaini, Naismith, etc played more games for the Blues than him and they never get this kind of adoration from most Everton fans.
