Transfer Rumour Wayne Rooney

[Deleted member 24970]

They do, but they have had those supporters for years. You wont just get people to change allegiance because we sign a player. People generally support clubs not players.

A more important why do boost our revenue may be to get more of a presence in Liverpool itself. Of course we do a lot in the community etc but in terms of visibility we may as well not exist at times. Anyone from out of town visiting Liverpool wouldn't even realize Everton was a club in this city unless they were wandering down Liverpool One (and managed to walk past the minty Liverpool shop.) as there is nothing to show that we are here. No billboards etc, and no shirts in shops. Its madness.

I don't think it would be a huge story either as it would be seen for exactly what it is, a former quality player going back to his home town club because he can no longer cut it at the pinnacle of the game.

The advertising part is unfortunately true. I didn't we weren't plastered everywhere, until I realised that we weren't lol (yes that does make sense) compared to Liverpool who are more dominant than us in marketing etc...

Like I say, im hoping bringing players of Rooney's stature will increase our 'brand'. Certaintly in England to begin with.

Not going to go knee-jerk like many are after that limp display today.

However there are a few comments that our players don't have the right mentality for the big occasion.

Whatever you think of Rooney's football abilities he unquestionably has the right mindset for a big match.

exactly, he'd give us a massive boost in such games and that's where we need to strengthen to get CL.

Behave TJ. He would go missing and get sent off for a late tackle on the corner flag and pick up £150k for it.

 

[Toffeemeister]

Yeah would have been a good option off the bench today.

Who ever says we don't need Wayne Rooney needs to look at this game. winning mentality, leader and passion jags baines Williams Barkley have maybe one make Rooney r captain and give us a chance I watched the rio documentary and he said if he seen a week player he would want them out of the dressing room that is a winning mentality from a player that Wayne has been around had and passion about winning that we need 19 years not to win at there ground and 23 year to r last cup is a joke

 

[ToffeeTim]

No

One past his prime player will not change that.

Samuel Eto'o was a winner too.

This one will probably push me over the edge into a mental breakdown

Exactly this

He was garbage again today

I know this is a bit out there, but do you think Rooney is playing crap on purpose? I mean, he's done everything at Utd, and wants to come back here so is he saving himself by just not putting in a shift anymore over there? Or is it just not in his nature?

I don't know anymore.

wouldn't explain why he's so bad for england as well tbh, although i've always said it's because he's not a central midfielder so no idea what he's doing there

Could argue that Eto'o was the one behind Boberto's downfall tbf. Rumour has it Sammy explained to the rest of the lads that Martinez was a fraud.

Rooney will sign for Everton in the summer.

Does anyone know why he isn't playing for Man Utd currently?
