No mention of the world record for a teenager fee that Everton received either.
Rooney was genuinely amazing between 15-20.
He was head and shoulders above anything I’ve ever seen at that age. Miles ahead of Messi and Ronaldo at the same stage.
I don’t think he gets enough credit for how good he was.

I think that's applicable to his whole career actually. He was a fantastic footballer.
Thank you Leeds
he really was, i think his look and his build probably went against him in how he was viewed, and ultimately he either didnt, or couldnt take care of himself in the same way as CR7 did for example, but still a brilliant footballer who had a great career.
Where does it mention he was taken with the wishes of Everton?
Works both ways
The word 'take' does not give the impression of giving willingly, rather the opposite
Everton have just captured the head of scouting operations from Brighton !

I agree on Rooney. For some reason outside his primary role he wasn’t as marketable as his peers. On the pitch where if matters he’s one of the best of his generation
Totally agree - Rooney was a hell of a player, the best of his generation - ability coupled with attitude and ill add he spent many years sacrificing himself on the wing for the good of the team under the ronaldo era, had his best goal returns playing as a lone striker for united and was unplayable for large parts of that era (the fact he wanted to be involved more which was probably to his detriment) a fantastic team player, beat sir Bobbys record and the England record (which kane will blow away) and always came across as liked by his peers (Gazza esque)
Ive always felt he didnt/doesnt get the respect warranted but put that down to being a united player
HATED, ADORED, NEVER IGNORED

I guess he had no chance being fully marketable like the other greats with the press reporting on his hooker / drinking scandals and the pretty mean fan comparisons to Shrek.
Fantastic footballer but re marketing, he wasn't a great speaker, was certainly not blessed with matinee idol looks - and that granny stuff.
Cheers,
Neil.
Arsenal living dangerously this game.

Get in Trossard!
I can’t work out wether Tottenham have been abysmal or Leicester exceptional.
Could/should’ve been 6 or 7
Arsenal doing their best to finish second in a one horse race
50% possession too…. So, that’s ok 👌
i’m going to Milan.not looking forward to it at all now. might take my boots just in case

I’m assuming they don’t do irony at The Emirates ?
Not looking for smart replies etc, but WTF is going on with Spurs?
Can beat Man City but bend over to Leicester.
I've played team sports for many years. Sometimes we are good, sometimes shit but have never gone from 10 to 1 in a week!

Spurs very often a bogey team for Man City.

Bad day all round for referees and VAR, Palace v Brighton (offside goal), Southampton v Wolves (Lemina sending off).
West Ham had a good draw with a rampant Chelsea team.
Joao Felix certainly catches the eye.
Cheers,
Neil.
Proper smash and grab at Elland road for us today!!
A real miss match of players
2 new cb
2 new cm
Relatively new striker
Sancho Dalot and malacia not had much game time so no surprise how disjointed we were but a win is a win
Rashford on fire !!!

I enjoyed that, end to end, a bit of rough and tumble, a good Leeds vs. Man United tussle. Defence was shaky, Maguire is slow. Not sure why Leeds are so far down the table.

Too many chances not converted into goals
Grealish falling over again I see…
That new, little left sided centre back for City… what’s his name ?
Bernardo Silva… that’s it…of course it is…

Disgraceful penalty decision.

Maybe because they only turn up twice a season. Utter shit houses.

Bernardo will run and run and run all over the pitch for you. He’s wasted this season in that role. Preferred it when he was more David Silva like and scoring the odd sensational goal.That new, little left sided centre back for City… what’s his name ?

Would have been my MOTM today save for Rodri.

It's funny how so many teams manage to play out of their skins when they play United.
That's how it's always been when teams play Leeds.

A very poor Everton performance tonight.
Everton’s squad is just shit, it doesn’t matter who manages them.
Liverpool still not great but a few bright moments. The young kid bajectic looks a player and Nunez is a real handful.

when I saw the everton starting xi I thought if we can’t beat this lot we can forget about it. It was relatively comfortable for Liverpool who looked a bit better and I agree Bajcetic looks very assured so far.

Was a good result but let's keep perspective on it, it was only Everton.
dont worry im not getting carried away!
The first Liverpool goal was superb. Cracking counter attacking football.
pickford clearly didnt see salah as a threat from the cross!
