2017/18 Wayne Rooney

[TyphooToffee]

like samuel eto'o?

No, not like Samuel Eto'o, and you know it.

 

[paulbefc]

So much for this being another Ginola/Gascoigne/Eto'o.

 

[gaino92]

Leave eto'o out of this you monsters. He saw Martinez for what he was. Would have been good for us with a proper manager

 

[Fletch]

not many of our players will have experienced a hostile european away game, we could do with his experience

Fair point, maybe he can keep heads on during the game and see out the win.

So you disagree with their opinion?

It's got nothing to do with Rooney being a Scouser, that's just paranoid nonsense. It's because Rooney resembles a Championship footballer at best these days.

look a bit silly now don't you

 

[Toffe3m4n]

@Soap your thoughts mate?

 

[Baines' left foot]

Every Evertonian around the world is so happy to have Wayne back

He also looks very happy to be back mate, it's just a question of how long his legs can hold out for playing every game lol

I think he will get stronger and fitter as the games go on.
He is 31 years old and in his prime.
His career had gone into a tail spin because he had lost his way and his motivation at Utd.
You can see he is a totally different player this season.
I don't believe it is all about coming back to Everton, although that is part of it, it is about being central to the team again about being the key player, the player everybody looks to for leadership...that is what makes him tick.
I am not sure Mourinho fully grasped that.

Samuel Eto'o was boss.

 

[Billy Dean]

Did fairly well but he gave the ball away cheaply a number of times. If that was one of the bedwetter boo boys (DCL, Barkley, etc), there would've been full on melt down on here

 

[Toast]

Retired from internationals.

Is right. Koff England.

 

[AaronTheBlue]

Showing his full commitment to us by retiring from england.

Brilliant from him.

 

[neil999]

Yes!!!

 

[gav1985]

Great news for the club really. Shows how much he wants to succeed here. Everton needs to be his only focus really.
