Yes it does a bit but the author is clearly exaggerating to underpin the main thesis of his article. . . that Wayne is happy slumming it in the lower echelons in order to reinvent himself as a future coach and manager.

RadioactiveWaste Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Is it me, or was yesterday the first time Rooney piled on in a goal celebration in stead of doing a little fist bump by his self? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramarena Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Funny to hear opposing fans telling us he’s poo, totally past it, his legs have gone, he’s fat. He then goes on to run the game against them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derby blood Posted February 9, 2020 Share Posted February 9, 2020 Rooney has been excellent since he has arrived the best signing of the Jan window in the Championship without doubt, but since he came in the players around him have started to improve like Holmes, Bird, Lawrence and Knight, I think his will to win and be the best is rubbing off on all the other players.

Yes @Ramslaar I agree thank you. “Stone cold Pride Park. . . ”, warming up in the silence etc., we shouldn’t expect anything better from the likes of the Daily Mail but it does present a positive picture of Wayne Rooney. I posted the picture of the famous announcement from 1884 that “Matches of a High Order will be arranged for next season”, and in 1888 Derby County famously signed the Goodall brothers; John had scored a huge number of goals for PNE in the inaugural season of the FL and the capture of Rooney, 130 odd years later is just another example of Derby living according to that creed.

Yes. Agreed. It looks as if the culture at Derby is starting to tick according to Wayne’s World. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EtoileSportiveDeDerby Posted February 11, 2020 Share Posted February 11, 2020 Good article today by Henry Winter about Rooney and amongst other things how he is helping out at Derby. Behind a paywall but i think you can get a free article a week or something like that. https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/wayne-rooneys-football-intellect-makes-him-a-manager-in-waiting-6p2r9xn6j Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’re creating so so many more chances with his influence in the team. Weird thing is, I don’t think we’ve even been any more clinical. Could be far more if we get even better up front.

Anna Posted March 5, 2020 Share Posted March 5, 2020 So I waited 2 hours to catch a glimpse of the Rooney ? which I managed, however his minder said the club have forbade him from signing autographs... I thought this was an interesting statement. He himself looked sincerely sorry and was saying something but I couldn't make it out. Do we reckon this is an "excuse" so that he doesn't get hounded/disappoint people if he doesn't sign something for everyone? Must be very overwhelming for him getting his name shouted at him all the time!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've just banned handshakes during Premier League games so we're probably at the stage (or very close) were all players across the English leagues will be told to avoid interacting closely with fans.
