I recall this thread being called the Wayne Rooney -white Pele for a while. The Rooney myth is being exposed at the World Cup. Certainly wasn't Pele came to mind watching him on Saturday night

To be fair Pele didn't have to play with Emile Heskey

Rooney still hasn't scored a goal in the World Cup finals. Pele was doing it in the final when he was 17. It is an insulting comparison. Rooney is  a good player but wouldn't even have made those great Brazil teams.

To be fair, he shouldn't have been at the last world cup because of the injury he was carrying. Insulting to who? you?

I  couldn't see him going there.  To be honest, I think he will stay and it seems more a case of that tube of an agent of his spouting off as usual.

Hope you are right.

Shrewdness

United have officially now sold Zoran Tosic to Cska Moscow for an undisclosed fee, although i've heard £8m is the fee.
He spent most of last season on loan at Cologne, and they were keen to again continue the loan, but United insisted on a sale(they would, wouldn't they!!).
Cologne couldn't afford him now, so he has signed a 5 year contract in Moscow.

This was a strange situation from day one. When United bought him, they left him out in Belgrade for 12 months. Then, when he arrived at OT, he only makes 5 sub appearances in 18 months before being sent packing again.

It shows, that despite the World Cup, deals are being done. We await our first signing of the summer. ::)

Premiership fixtures due out tomorrow at 9am at home to Chelsea would be a good start  ;)

That's the last team I would want on first day, we had them before and it didn't work out and would rather we were a bit warmed up first before facing them.

MY shitty little club?  :P  I am not one of those sad bastards refers to an English soccer club as we. It is the hype of the English press and on this thraed which recently described him as the white Pele. He is over rated hype who still hasn't scored a goal in the World Cup. last night he was an embarassment to Merseyside.

Utterly incorrect. United fans have been singing about the "White Pele" for 5 years.

Rooney wouldn't have made the squads that Pele played in...
