A Good Day for Manchester Prossies

Lover of whores Wayne Rooney is set to be off to Manchester United today. After Alan Smith another badge kisser and professed lover of his former side, don’t Man United seem like the sexy big lass at school who lures boys away from their girlfriends, as soon as they’ve declared their love for them, just because she can? ‘I love you because I didn’t realise the big darling would have me.’

Good luck to Everton, if I was a Toffee I would be glad to see the back of Rooney. In the long run, what’s he done for the club? He’s not hit 30 goals a season, he’s not got them to the Cup Final, nor the Champion’s League, never scored the winner against Barcelona. He’s won a few league games for them, including one against Arsenal a couple of years ago. Big deal, eh? What he has done is secure them upwards of 22 million quid, he’s become a business commodity rather than a footballer. Fans don’t reminisce about how much money a player went for, kids don’t put posters on their wall of big money deals.

Here’s his Everton stats

League
Games: 67 (27 as a sub) Goals: 15 Yellow cards: 16 Red cards: 1

FA Cup
Games: 4 Goals: 0 Yellow cards: 2 Red cards: 0

League Cup
Games: 6 (2) Goals: 2 Yellow cards: 1 Red cards: 0

Total
Games: 77
Goals: 17
Yellows: 19
Reds: 1

So more bookings than goals then. Like I say, Evertonians should be waving him off.

Obviously I hope he fails to kick his own arse as a United player and helps them into that much coveted third spot in the Premiership.
