Boycie Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 I’m that confident he will bring us glory if contacted the bronze statue guy to commission a statue to stand just next to Brian and Peter. Im looking for funding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
secretsquirrel Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Wasn't keen initially but been won round by the games so far -tightened defense and got us having shots-deserves a chance to hold the poisoned chalice for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

angieram Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 I am very pleased with this appointment, which surprised me, because I originally didn't want Wayne as manager. I think that I was influenced too much by his patchy form at the club and the style of football we were playing at the time. His interviews didn't warm me to him either. However, since he has been in temporary charge I have completely changed my mind. He oozes knowledge of the game, he seems to like to play his football the right way by utilising the best of what he has available. His directness suits us and I like his honesty. He seems to handle the media circus around the club really well (He's had plenty of experience of this as a player.) The players are putting in a real shift for him and I suspect those who aren't might not be with us much longer. I am happy to be won over and wish him every success.

But it’s irrelevant at this point. Rooney is the man in charge and we have to hope he does the business. I have my doubts but I will be glad to see him deliver. A win for Rooney is a win for us now, at the end of the day. I just hope that if he does perform well in the job, he treats us with more consideration than Lampard did.

I like what I have seen of his style of play too.. He's (understandably) very cautious with what he says to the media - you can almost see the cogs turn when he's asked particularly tricky questions. But there is no doubt about his footballing intelligence. #COYR Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s early days but I think he’s done a very good job so far and if he does a Lampard and leaves us for another club then hopefully he has taken us to the Premier league by then.

Ramarena Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Looks like I’m going to change my avatar finally. This was always going to be the case unless things took a disastrous turn. He’s had a fairly good start and made some improvements whilst not having much to work with. Definitely more solid at the back, better balance in midfield (having Beilik back helped here) and a bit more threat up top, although still lacking. Main thing this gives us is some stability which is a big thing when their seems to be so many unknowns around the club. Good luck to him and any success he has will be good for us! This does point towards the takeover being pretty much done given the mention of the Sheikh in press release. I take it 32 Red aren’t involved in the new contract!

DCFC1388 Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Wonder if now that Rooney is manager, does that free up the star player clause in the 32red deal...and if so, would Phil Jones qualify for it ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously some will disagree. Yeah I can understand that. I guess he wanted some kind of assurance. As with all things time will tell. He could turn out to be exactly what we've been after for years......or not. For now though, I'm a thumbs up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramley Apple Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 We're just a stepping stone for Wayne, exactly like Lamps, and he'll be off to a Premier League side sooner than you can say 'hair plugs' But in the here and now he's the best option available Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andicis Posted January 15, 2021 Share Posted January 15, 2021 Our defense under Rooney has been the best in the league. If he can get us firing more up top, hopefully we can challenge for top half by the end of the season. Happy with this appointment, Rooney has more than earned his shot and has more than proven my initial doubts about him wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
