I don't have an agenda.You and a few others have such a pathetic agenda, it's hard to believe I still read shite like this on a Manchester United forum.
Wayne Rooney - Derby County player
- Thread starter Zlatattack
- Start date
His legs may have went but his brain is still levels above a certain someone. Legend.

He was pretty poor, but that is to be expected.
Fred has been average the last few games as he’s been ever present. His best games for us this season were much much better than anything Rooney achieved by dropping back into midfield. That shanked ball out to the right wing over and over and over.... argh
Rooney should have retired a red devil. Sure he's not as good as he used to be but he's still better than a few players in our team. Problem was the fans compared him to himself rather than the players around him. But he could still be a squad player and I would rather see him take the field than Lombard or Periera
Pretty much that. When there was a midfield injury crisis later on, Fergie had to talk Scholes out of retirement...
Rooney was great for about 8 or 9 seasons and should have left after the first Van Gaal year, but other than these 15-16 and 16-17 seasons, not much to complain.
Think Ronaldo always saw us as a means to get to Madrid. Rooney was delighted to sign here.
Yep. A lot of our players got one over on Wayne yesterday, even Andreas, but not Jesse.
Ignore him mate. He's one of these twat fans who'll never appreciate a player unless they 'bleed their club'. Fact is Rooney gave everything and more to United in his career and for me is the best English player of the last 20 years. It'd be like some of your crowd dismissing Lampard because he was a West Ham kid. Literally just stupidity.
If Mount goes on to achieve half of what Rooney did fir us for you guys then he'll be a Chelsea legend and rightfully so. Just goes to show how stupid our fans are when they praise Ronaldo (slave) when in the same breath criticise Rooney. Hypocrites the lot of them especially considering most of them have gone over the top on Lingard who is one of our own and bleeds this club.
Did you miss the interviews before the match saying he loves the club and still goes to the games.
Swear people see what they want to see

You're having a mare here my friend.
Unfortunately I didn't get to see the Brazilian Ronaldo in the flesh until his Madrid days but yeah a complete freak of a talent. I meant Rooney is the best teenager I saw live
I don't see it like that.
Last year yeah, his head was in Madrid. But I think he loved the club when he was here.
Kinda like a girlfriend you loved that you didn't end up marrying. Just because you moved on it doesn't mean you felt nothing.
Still far better than Lingard and Pereira, another level
Another level
Another level
Love him but people have forgotten he was dropping literal 0/10 perfornances on a regular basis. The fact that we have rubbish there now doesn't mean we should have kept him.
Rooney's nowhere near good enough for United and he wasn't 3 years ago which is why we let him go. But then the likes of Lingard are even worse now than Rooney was then, and thats all most people are saying. Given the choice even a 34 year old Rooney would be a better option right now than what Lingard and to a lesser extent Pereira have been serving up the last few years.
I don't think so. He saw Fergie as his second father after his passed away. He holds United in very high regard.
I meant his end goal wasn't here. For some reason, Rooney didn't ask to go to Madrid or Barça while in his prime.
He's a snail now.
Yet his passing ability and brain is still miles and miles better than anyone in that Derby side.

This is my favourite football clip ever. I’ve got so much adoration for Sir Alex and there is two aspects to this video I absolutely love.
Firstly, the amount of respect he receives from players that know him. Obviously the Nani and Ronaldo reactions are the peak of this and it’s like they forgot all about what they have just won when they see him and at that moment he’s all that matters to them. Then you have Pepe who was an absolute scrote of a competitor against us and never actually played for him yet he has the same star struck reaction as if he’s a footballing worshiper who has just bumped into the pope.
The second aspect I love is just how giddy Sir Alex is with absolute pride that his adopted son has just won his dream competition. The amount of love he has for Ronaldo despite the fact he left United at his peak. He just understands the human aspect and can look past his own interests and has so much admiration for Ronaldo the competitor.
The man is absolutely unique.
Pretty sure the away support loved rooney never mind the home support.
I think you have manufactured the notion it's not there. He spent most his career at the club. You be deluded and nuts to think he has no connection to the club.
Plenty of evidence to say he still does.
Ironic that Ruud did the same thing when he was a similar age and it was Rooney and Ronaldo he didn’t fancy waiting for.
Is this the reason why he left? Thought it was because his relationship with Queiroz broke down and Fergie chose?
I don't blame Rooney for thinking like that. Will say it till my dying day. That summer marked the start of our decline. And imo, we are still suffering the effects today.
Jesus, what a pathetic specimen of a post.
He is talking too much again by the looks of it, I liked him more when he wasn't mentioning United too much. Throwing Nani under the bus again to make himself look like a big guy in the eyes of English media.
Yeah. A number of drinks had been had, I was ignorant to the fact that he applauded the fans and heaped massive praise on us after the game. I personally have what I feel are legitimate reasons to question how far up Rooney should be on the 'legendary' pyramid at United but it's a shite and cringeworthy post, I'll own it.

Also just scored a free-kick vs Preston.
First time I’ve seen it and my heart just filled with pride. Like you say, such respect for SAF. Ronaldo’s face just lights up when he sees him.
Fergie hanging around like he’s a father waiting to see his son
I think Bruno is the first natural successor to Rooney we've had until now. We've lacked a catalyst and a player that instills fear in the opposition, Rooney was dangerous from anywhere in and outside the box, incredible baller before his decline. 
Only just realised they are a point off play offs if they win this. Good to see him playing well.

Wazza doing wazza things.
It's funny how absence makes the heart grow fonder. I was one of his biggest critics since 2012 and was proper pissed that Moyes gave him a new contract, but now I wouldn't mind him back as a 3rd or 4th choice forward/10.
God I love him. Miss him a lot playing for united. Unlike some of you miserable feckers on here
What. A. Goal. Class is permanent.

I expected something more magical than a good freekick.
Like the City goal or Newcastle volley.
Very good freekick though he didn't score that many for us, but we had other players to take them.
Very good free kick.... although not sure why 5Live called it a penalty from 22 yards!
Jesus his hair is still brutal. Rooneys results for a man with endless cash don’t look great.
