Wayne Rooney rejoins Everton | United save £30M by giving him £10M pay-off

[Pexbo]

Nobody could have predicted this.

I can’t imagine his mates in the media will be putting pressure on Koeman now either.

 

[PoTMS]

He’s shite but he’s been better for Everton than most of his pathetic teammates.

Dropped v Burnley.

Koeman trying to save his job.

He’s shite but he’s been better for Everton than most of his pathetic teammates.

That's it. He's a square peg in a round hole at Premier League level these days but worryingly for Everton fans he's actually been one of their top two or three players.

Klaasen also not starting. So I think Koeman realizes Sigursson, Rooney and Klaasen get in each other's way. He chose one for this match.

 

[Ronaldo's Mum Eh?]

Dropped v Burnley.

He started on Thursday though so it could be because of that..

I can't remember which journo tweeted it at the time, but his comment when someone asked what he thought of the Rooney deal was perhaps spot on: "Doesn't really matter. He'll have lost his place by January."

10m pay off to leave. Jesus. David Moyes s*hafted us

 

[The Bloody-Nine]

Given the situation, it's money well spent.

 

[ZAGREB RED]

Even allowing for Rooney's "homecoming" they would have been better of with Hernandez. Rooney is done, pretty much.

I actually think he has done well this sesaon with 3 goals already. Better than last 2-4 for us. Although I expect him to get worse no doubt and given that Everton already struggle they sure would need something better.

I suspect the bigger problem is his play style might hinder other players though and thus make the team worse which I thought was a big problem for us. Although I think that is mainly cause they have bought very weirdly with so many similar types of players.

 

[The Bloody-Nine]

It was reported that Everton paid us £10 million for him anyway, so that's his pay off covered.
