I don't know, one of them could probably still do a job in United's midfield but Rooney should go to China.

I think he is waiting for his knighthood before he goes

I can't see him getting into the team if Giroud signs.

Not sure what Rooney offers Everton apart from shirt sales and slowing down the play.

He might come on for last 20 mins in a game and with Europa league he could start.

7 years ago I put a bet on Rooney's next club being Everton, this was during the time he was being a nobber and threatened to leave United.....

So come on Roonpig get your move to Everton done and win me £500.

Woop Woop!

Well, the move home might inspire him to produce a glimpse of his old abilities again, but more chance he will just be a burden to them. I wouldn't bet on him scoring more than a handful of goals next season.

Cheers.

Thought they weren't going to pay me out. Contacted them as the bet had been classed as 'lost' - quite possibly for a few years, possibly because it was a very old bet.....they said they would get onto it......2 hour later I contact them asking why I am yet to be paid out and they were like 'We are checking if this was classed as 'lost' because it was possibly just for that transfer window'. I went away again, and realised I put the bet on in October - when there is no transfer window, at that point I went back to BetFred to tell them and there it was, £500 sitting in my account.

Sorted.

Cheers BetFred, thought you were going to do me over for a second.

Assuming he is going to be given the Striker role - then I think he will do ok. Not as good as Lukaku, but maybe get 15-20 goals next season assuming he is the penalty taker and going to be taking some free kicks too.

He has been utter tosh for years now though, misplacing passes, turning circle of a double decker bus, pace gone.

I'd rather see him given a last go at being the striker. He ain't going to score many goals as the 2nd striker or as a midfielder.

If Fat Frank fails they surely won’t go back to the Sheep Dip and make the same mistake twice... for a year or two, anyway.

I suspect Abramovich has Tuchel lined up, probably to take over at half-time next time they’re losing.

Wayne Rooney's Derby County has a 100% win rate since he took over on a permanent basis. Beat Bournemouth last night and so WRDC moved out of the bottom three. This must make him a candidate for the Chelsea, England (mens or ladies) or any other managerial job in football.

Big Sam had a 100% win rate with England, it still hasn’t earned him Real Madrid ;)
