Good lad Wayne. I’m checking every Derby result now!
Wayne Rooney | Sacked as Birmingham City Manager
- Thread starter FujiVice
- Start date
Agree the bias is ridiculous, hard to believe Rooney is Younger than Ronaldo considering that CR7 is still world class.
Maybe if he took his diet seriously and put more hours in the gym he would still be playing top flight today. Top player? sure but no one can put him in the same class as CR7.
Club legend? He held SAF hostage threatening to leave for city if we didn't increase his wages by a massive amount, that started the ball rolling de-stabilizing the wage structure opening the door for the insane high wage crisis the club has today..
Rooney turning to his mates for some deadline day madness.
Five loan signings on deadline day.
Gerrards given him Edmundson, Oles given him Mengi, Everton have given him Baningme and I’m not sure who the feck from city has given him Patrick Roberts but hey. And Gregory from Stoke.

As a young player, he was better than Ronaldo. And at the end of the day, regardless of your overstating the wages incident, he's far far higher up the legend scale and much important than the latter will ever be, for Manchester United, which is what matters for fans of this club.
City and Stoke are his mates?
The fact you’re even implying Rooney isn’t a club legend is nothing less than spurious nonsense.
Haha, didn’t mean them. Why I was like not sure who the feck from city gave him roberts.
And that’s your respect?
Man Utd and England’s greatest ever goal scorer isn’t a legend. What’s that word .. errr Ridiculous
Bad night for Derby, they were beaten 3 nil by Rotherham. Mengi stayed on the bench.
Doing fantastically well - 5 wins from 7 since he took over permanently. Up to 16th in the table now.

Shame to have Rooney at my boys Wycombe ground, a mere 4miles from my door and can't be there.
Every chance that's the one time he ever graces Adams Park, albeit as a manager.

So how did Mengi do?
Very happy for Rooney. Long may it continue.
Won again yesterday. Some of the comments by Derby fans yesterday.
Seems to be doing great.
Great to see.
An absolute legend of United, hopefully, a legendary manager in the making too. Best of luck, the white Pele.Doing fantastically well - 5 wins from 7 since he took over permanently. Up to 16th in the table now.

I haven’t followed Rooney’s path into management at all as I never really liked him as a player anyway.
However, I’ve just been speaking to a Derby fan who says Rooney has already proved that he has a modern, progressive and adaptable style of coaching, fantastic man management and in game tactics, and will be a Man Utd manager one day.
High praise indeed, what do we think? Comparisons with Ole’s style?
Edit: why is this in the Utd forum? Should be in football, has had nothing to with us for years now and there’s zero relevance,

Derby v Nottingham Forest on Sky tonight at 7:45pm.
I will love it if he becomes our manager eventually, love it.
Forest where the better team tonight but he is getting results at Derby good start
Lampard Mk2
Just give him the job and £500 million now!
I know he likes to hold us to ransom over contracts but £500m?! He can p*ss off!
Kazim Richards has been class under Rooney and even won a year extension to his contract. What an odd career he's had.
Sums it up. It’ll take years of experience including a few at a good PL club before he ever gets a job with any of the top 5 clubs let alone Utd.
Probably the same person who had a contract ready for him in 2010 ...
Anyway, good to see him doing well. From a tactical point of view I always felt he was rather a Scholes than a Keane (Scholes and Rooney instinctively made the right decisions whereas Keane knew what and why he was doing stuff), but maybe that’s just me.
Exactly. Lampard got the Chelsea job because they had a transfer ban and there was expectation, he did great at Derby but then he needs to get more experience at a bigger club but not straight into a top 4 club.
Rodgers is a great example did great stuff at Swansea so Liverpool hired him and too be fair was a slip away from winning the league but I still felt that was too soon. So he went to Celtic and did great (though it wasn’t hard) and now doing fantastic at Leicester, I feel he is ready for a big side now
You can see LvG foundation and philosophy in Rooney as manager.
Can you? He said lvg was the best coach (not manager if I remember correctly) he played under.
Derby play horny football? His captain shall always play?
Rooney is in the job 5 minutes and he's a fantastic man manager and tactician??????
Such fantasy
Much formation wow
Curious. How couldn't you have liked Rooney as a player?
Yeah wtf? An absolute club legend and talisman in his time here, not sure how a fan couldn’t have liked him.
I guess it’s the butthurt stance we see of some fans hating him for playing the game and wrangling for a new contract. Ya know the same thing every single top level player does.
It does not make sense to me. A recent post from them suggests that de Gea is still the world's best keeper and is undergoing a 'slight blip in form'. Curious that someone would go to lengths to defend a player that was a paperwork error away from actually leaving the club (de Gea), but dislikes one of the most important players in the club's history (Rooney).
I could understand if someone was annoyed by his off field incidents, but as a player? Nah can't accept that.
Never understood some of the Rooney hate. He's a ledg no 2 ways about it.
