🚨 Wayne Rooney asked what made him special:
🗣️ Rooney: “Special? Mate, I had no flair. No stepovers, no tricks. You watched Ronaldo or Ronaldinho for that. I was just a street footballer. Pass, shoot, run, tackle. The basics. I just tried to do the basics better than everyone else.”
🗣️ Gary: “Wayne, you scored an overhead kick against City.”
🗣️ Rooney: “Nani crossed it. I was trying to score. How I got up there, I don’t know. That’s instinct. You do the basics every day for long enough, sometimes they don’t look basic anymore.”
One thing has been on my mind recently is that regardless of good or bad experiences in football there’s always a silver lining. Things might not pan out the way you thought it would whether that’s minutes, goals, even just how you gel with your team. That hunger keeps on growing
If you're involved in football, at any level, then please take 5 minutes to read this thread, you won't regret it.
18 months ago me and my brother began a football project that would have us chasing our dream, day and night. 👍
Bermondseytown would like to thank the gaffer @FootballCoachSWfor his incredible dedication, commitment and hard work over the years.
More than a coach, he’s been a leader and a huge part of the club both on and off the pitch.
We wish him nothing but success in his next chapter
Crystal Palace have become the first club to offer an aftercare programme for released players that don't have a future in football.
The three-year aftercare package will support released academy players in making a way of life, outside of football.
This is a fantastic thing for the club to do, hopefully the first of many. 👏

Men are simple creatures — they’ll tell you what they want, show you what they like, and mean exactly what they say. The confusion usually starts when you try to read between lines that don’t exist.
