It's like some championship manager re-generation of names job.Imagine another prime, force of nature, Rooney in the team.
God I miss his old man in his pomp, absolute beast.
The story goes that United first learned of Rooney when he scored something like 12 goals in a game for Everton against United at a similar age to Kai now.Better than Wayne Rooney.
I was thinking about this with Schmeichel. How many Dad-Son combos where both are relatively successful?Imagine setting out on a path in football with a dad who achieved that much!
Jordi Cruyff gets some stick, but he played for Barcelona and Man Utd which I think is pretty successful.I was thinking about this with Schmeichel. How many Dad-Son combos where both are relatively successful?

I listened to the United podcast interview and he said he commutes to Derby each day. I’m not sure if that’s still the case as it was about six months ago.That’s pretty cool. Interesting that he still plays for our youth team - does Rooney still live around Manchester and travel to Derby?
Fair enough. I guess the commute isn’t that long, and when you’re as rich as Rooney it’s not really a cost issue.I listened to the United podcast interview and he said he commutes to Derby each day. I’m not sure if that’s still the case as it was about six months ago.
The odds are stacked but would love to see him make it.It's like some championship manager re-generation of names job.
