@themichaelowen@BBCMOTD You played in a much stronger team with better players around you in them first 2 years though. Your game will always come back to numbers but Iโd imagine 95% of your teammates would pick Rooney to play alongside at any age over you, including Gerrard ๐๐ป
@Sean_Lunt The idea that itโs just pumped up to him is a myth. For the team to get up the pitch he is going to have to be able to take the ball with his back to goal, look after it and lay it off. For a man of his size he canโt even do that which is pretty basic at that level of football ๐คท๐ปโโ๏ธ
@dixie2107 Yer thereโs been a scatter gun approach to everything for years now and weโre obviously paying the consequence of that these last 2 years. And yes I think itโs a difficult place for young players to play because of the frustration around the place too, fingers crossed it picks up
@dixie2107 They werenโt going to fine him wages if the 2 clubs were already at the table over a deal IMO, was a case of when not if. The โI didnโt want to disrespect Evertonโ line in his statement said a lot to me. Big fee for Everton anyway hopefully spend it more wisely this time round ๐๐ป
@dixie2107 Professionals show up for training every day. Doesnโt strike me as a lad who cares about the club or his team mates, however much of a mess weโre in itโs inexcusable.
