Says he's one of the best posters
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.

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.... arghHe was never so bad considering the dross we are still playing and tolerating 3 years after he left. Players like Lingard and Pereira are being tolerated and it took 5 years for Lingard for example to get called on, you also see Fred getting praised for absolute average performances regularly nowadays. Because it was Rooney it was "so so bad".
Pretty much that. When there was a midfield injury crisis later on, Fergie had to talk Scholes out of retirement...Fan Logic: A club should dump players at the first sign of decline, but a player dare not question a club's priorities. The fact is that Rooney was absolutely right to do what he did. We had the likes of Obertan and Bebe playing for us. Fergie refused to buy midfielders for three seasons (the value years) and our general play was often rotten. Still lining up with Scholes and Giggs in midfield in 2010 ffs...and of course Rooney was proven right when the utter lack of long term planning took its toll the day Fergie left. The only player Fergie had a plan to replace was...Rooney.
Here's a player who played through injury so many times and who United and England rushed back to the player's long term detriment. Glad to see at least some fans haven't forgotten how special Rooney was.
Think Ronaldo always saw us as a means to get to Madrid. Rooney was delighted to sign here.i think at the end he - or his agent - admitted they were not seriously looking to leave but just looking for a big pay rise. It's just the timing was suspect so people ran with the 'questioning ambition' reasoning. I can't find the article that i remember reading which said similar. he ended up staying at least which was a damn sight better than seeing Ronaldo flirt every summer with Madrid and then say he is a slave.
Yep. A lot of our players got one over on Wayne yesterday, even Andreas, but not Jesse.His legs may have went but his brain is still levels above a certain someone. Legend.

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.In fairness didn't he make it clear from day one he will always be an Evertonian first and foremost?
We have a similar situation now with Mason Mount who still goes to Pompey games.
"Hello Wayne! Thanks so much for joining us on what must have been a long and emotional day"
Wayne: "I wouldn't say that erm.. you know.. Manchester United are a good team, it's a good chance for our young players..."
I may be weak and petty af, but my heart is broken and will remain broken until a true red breaks his record. It was an arranged marriage with that guy, from beginning to end
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
I agree, it’d also be disrespectful to Derby to gush over us in an interview after they’ve lost 3-0 at home.
@GDaly95The connection between Rooney and United fans was never really there. Always forced. Manufactured.
You'd be deluded to think otherwise.
Agree: if Lingard and Pereira get games, Rooney would above them. The reason Lingard gets games primarily is supposed to be down to his movement off the ball and linking midfield with the attack, but his technical level has nosedive this season, which makes him a liability as he causes so many attacks to break down at his feet.
Rooney obviously doesn't have the legs of either and he can't run much, but he still has far better feet in every manner from control, to shooting to passing.
Your last sentence: you didn't see El Fenomeno in his teenage years?
Agree. What beard!
*masculine grunt!
I don't see it like that.Think Ronaldo always saw us as a means to get to Madrid. Rooney was delighted to sign here.
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.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.
I don't think so. He saw Fergie as his second father after his passed away. He holds United in very high regard.Think Ronaldo always saw us as a means to get to Madrid. Rooney was delighted to sign here.
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.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.
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.I don't think so. He saw Fergie as his second father after his passed away. He holds United in very high regard.

Is this the reason why he left? Thought it was because his relationship with Queiroz broke down and Fergie chose?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.
Jesus, what a pathetic specimen of a post."Hello Wayne! Thanks so much for joining us on what must have been a long and emotional day"

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.Jesus, what a pathetic specimen of a post.

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.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.
Only just realised they are a point off play offs if they win this. Good to see him playing well.Tweet
