2017/18 Wayne Rooney

Yes it's amazing what having millions in the bank does for those marriage counselling chats . Same as John Terry's wife and dozens more......

To be fair to Colleen, she would get mega millions if they broke up so I doubt the bank account is what is keeping her there

It would be an interesting last 10 minutes + agreed...

But it has to be our time soon... Law of averages...

Mate it's been "our time" for years lol

Hasn't kissed the badge since he's been back if I'm mistaken, I'll seriously fume if he doesn't when he scores in the derby

 

[SiEdmo]

oh sorry my bad. Of course that's it she's staying for the looks and personality!

why be a [Poor language removed]? shes clearly staying coz its the best thing for 3 young kids, you know some people on this planet do sometimes sacrifice themselves for the benefit of others, and aren't just greedy vain gold diggers

It'll be interesting to see how he fares in centre midfield against a better side, who will no doubt swarm all over him; similar to how it seemed to work for England until they ran into Italy at whichever tournament it was that he played there.

Againt the RS and better teams he's going to need Gana and Davies to do a lot of running for him because he just doesn't have the legs anymore but he'll still be our best chance at creating something.

I've long been against letting him play deep, but the options are so limited that I now think Allardyce may as well give him a run there.

I'm not expecting him to be effective against anyone other than the dregs of the league at home, but I suppose he's earned himself a proper go at it.

Thought he was best player on the pitch against West ham and Huddersfield... I know they were poor but I'd leave him there

Somebody posted recently they had heard that Sam had picked the team against West Ham. Generally I think that post was greeted with disbelief but it was the first time he was played there by Unsworth, who had not played him at all in previous matches, it might be that Sam had more influence on that game than we hink.

I think that is beyond doubt.

Even if he did not pick the team nor dictate the tactics, and I do not for one second think he did either, his very presence at the ground on foot of the imminent announcement of his appointment would have definitely served as an attitude adjuster for those players starting the game.

If you go back Sam did visit the dressing room and spoke to the players about the importance of a clean sheet and scoring first.

Very wise words.

And advice my grannie could give to any team about to play a football match, be it in the schoolyard or at Wembley Stadium

...everything that was said by Unsworth and Allardyce after the game suggests this was not the case. Indeed, I recall Allardyce saying he had no input into team selection at all. I do, however, think the change of Manager influenced the performance simply because it gave the whole place a lift.

I think he is class, been great the last 2 games .... sadly if we don't get a result at anfield everyone will turn on him again.

 

[The binman chronicles]

Seen at the utd game tonight, i can safely say i'm not overreacting by saying I hope he catches eye aids there you manc traitor...

Only kidding i couldn't care less where he goes as long as he isn't arrested and it effects his form for a month afterwards.
