Used to go to NY in Oct every year for about 10 years (before the nippers) and one of my abiding memories is the smell of fresh coffee and bread on a brisk Autumn morning. Behave. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is he REALLY picking up any more than the rest of the team??? As I mentioned in the Candeias thread - His 1st yellow in the last game was stupid & completely avoidable (the 2nd an embarrassment for the ref)....but as a result, he will miss the next game. I don't see anyone commenting on his "silly booking"... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see anyone commenting on his "silly booking"... Allan McGregor is another; has shown real stupidity on a couple of occasions this year in big games. He's got away with it so this experienced player in his late 30's is not considered so much a risk temperament wise as young Alfredo Morelos. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFK-1 1,693 Posted November 7, 2018 Author Share Posted November 7, 2018 I don't see it happening but I would take Rooney in a heartbeat providing it wasn't costing an arm and a leg. He wont have the pace he once had but pace isn't what made him a great. He still has all the other attributes that made him a great and he would score and create for us. If it were up to him I think he might do it as a gesture to Gerrard. But would his American side who are reportedly paying him around £200,000 a week which we could cover a relatively tiny fraction of want to put him into a league of 'hammer throwers' where the chance of injury is ever present ? I imagine they would think it a good idea to have him playing and keeping match fit during their close season but Scotland might not be a desired location for them. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 850 Posted November 7, 2018 Share Posted November 7, 2018 I would say there is no way we would get Rooney for various reasons but anyone who wouldnt take him should ask again. Rooney behind Morelos would be that creativity spark needed. We do need to try get away from having loanees long term but in the meantime if it assists in building us back to challenging and winning titles and eventually back into the CL then its fine. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
