Transfer Rumour Wayne Rooney

[Toffee in Jandals]

Find me a successful team in Europe who have no players over 30.

Last season I think Schone was Ajax's oldest player, and he was 30

We've just signed four players who are all in their early twenties. Our core squad as it stands (the starting eleven plus subs on a match day, imo):

Jagielka - 34
Baines - 32
Williams - 32
Coleman - 28
Bolasie - 28
Schneiderlin - 27
Gueye - 27
Robles - 27
Keane - 24
Klassen - 24
Lukaku - 24
Pickford - 23
Barkley - 23
Ramirez - 21
Calvert Lewin - 20
Holgate - 20
Davies - 19
Lookman - 19

Average age of 25. That's a young squad if anything.

How could you forget Barry??

 

[davids]

Yep but competing with Zlatan, Rashford, Martial etc

For us he'd be replacing Kone or Niasse and would be a good older head to accompany young Sandro, and hopefully Giroud

Don't get the negativity - is it lingering resentment that he left in the first place?

it's a great opportunity which we're only getting because of his emotional connection to the club...

Dropped by the same manager who virtually tripped over himself getting rid of Lukaku.

 

[Baines' left foot]

 

[Legend Barry Horne]

How could you forget Barry??

Mirallas, Funes Mori, McCarthy - on the scrap heap?

 

[Brennan]

How could you forget Barry??

Rotation player for me.

 

[Toffeepot]

him wanting to come back proves this!

 

[Death]

Returning players seldom do well he struggled to get a game last season ?
So what makes you think his cameo roles will be worth his wages?

It's very important we win that stoke match going into that run. If Rooney plays in that the crowd will be unbelievable. Well suck the ball into the net. Remember Duncan testimonial? Beat stoke and carry the feel good factor. Just for a good start alone it'll be worth it for me. And that's without factoring in if he will contribute anything or not. Imagine if he got a goal or two in the process!

 

[Brennan]

Economical with what RK plays that's true mert!

Yeah you're right, he never played Klassen, Keane, Pickford or Ramirez last season to be fair.

Yeah you're right, he never played Klassen, Keane, Pickford or Ramirez last season to be fair.

I'd be happy with this.

If it doesn't work out, he'll get dropped because Koeman's our manager. If it works out well, which I think it probably would, we'll get a really, really talented footballer with a point to prove and probably a lot of hunger.

Booooooooooooooooo

Haha ,if you like.
Once a traitor ALWAYS a traitor.

Once a blue, but a red for 90% of my career until I come back for 2 years ..doesn't sound the same does it

 

[blueboy1945]

Very childish.

True, but what do you expect from children(of whatever age)?
