In the long run, do you guys think he'll be worth the cards, onfield incidents, etc. He's got talent no doubt, but I'm sure it's happened before.
He's worth it. What he brings to the current team is evident on those few occasions he hasn't played since he joined us. The team looks more stagnant, and we are lacking a guy who REGULARLY tries to score, then tracks back and tries to recover balls he's given away in places we'd expect to see Heinze and Neville. I think he's worth whatever trouble we get from him now...he must mature though. Not to mention he's got a big bullseye painted on his back from here on out.
Who needs new signings!!!! We got Roooooooooooooon FOR LIFE!!! I can not overstate how much this excites me as a Man Utd fan. Pump your fist. Come you Red Devils. Glory, Glory, Manchester Untied.!!! Chelsea Football Club needs to die!!!!
The rep he is building is a concern. I dont believe he is any worse than a lot of players. He has a higher profile which makes it easier for him to be targeted. I wonder if he had been born french, spanish or italian if he would have had the same rep build up? Lets not forget Cantona was no angel! Some of the best players have had that edge. I thought last season his discipline was good. Great players deserve protection and I am not sure refs always do that plus Rooney needs to learn control his frustration.
And likely will be for many years if not his career.. Of course we all expected him to move "up" from Everton.. My point being him saying it doesn't mean much.. Circumstances will mean more...
Great player. Love to watch him. He's really got to do something about the reputation, though. We've got a player over here named Ruiz, who has such a rep for flopping that it's reflex action for the refs to motion him to get up. The way Rooney's going, he might be the first player to get a red card stepping off the bus.
So Rooney is a diver now? I know he has a bad temper but he's no diver. And are you talking about Carlos Ruiz?
He has dove before but its pretty rare for the most part. Hope he cuts it out. Can't believe Carlos Ruiz is being mentioned in the same thought as Rooney. Glad Wayne wants to stay...FOREVER!
Wazza is a RED he'll always be a RED started at the evertwats but moved to Man United instead (made by ME!!!!)
Yes and if he dives he has a good reason to do so. If that guy is talkign about Carlos Ruiz I will piss in a plastic bag and suffocate myself with it. Long live Wazza!
This is what concerns me most. After being sent off for that "elbow," it is clear that referees, not necessarily more willing to call him on fouls, but read more into his fouls than is really there, all because of his past behavior. However, I'm sure everybody on this board will say the same - it's Rooney's own fault. It may take years for the guy to win over the referees, hell, even the fans, even though it took a few seconds to lose them.
